Radiation may be defined as the energy in form of electromagnetic waves or particles that pass through space and even heavy dense materials. The radioactivity is a continuously decreasing quantity which function half-life responsible radionuclides. natural sources radiation came from terrestrial radionuclides are widely distributed earth's crust. Field radiological surveys were conducted by GR-...

A bstract PandaX-4T is a ton-scale dark matter direct detection experiment using dual-phase TPC technique at the China Jinping Underground Laboratory. Various ultra-low background technologies have been developed and applied to material screening for PandaX-4T, including HPGe gamma spectroscopy, ICP-MS, NAA, radon emanation measurement system, krypton assay station, alpha system. Low materials ...

We have previously shown that angiogenesis inhibition and tumor regression can be accomplished by combinations of heparin or heparin fragments with cortisone [Folkman, J., Langer, R., Linhardt, R. J., Haudenschild, C. & Taylor, S. (1983) Science 221, 719-725]. Oral heparin was also effective in combination with cortisone. We now show that a single oral dose of [35S]heparin or [3H]heparin (15,00...

Assay of the radioactive content of waste drums is important for inventory and waste disposal purposes. The sampling of the drum content is a difficult, time and labor consuming procedure, involving special radiation protection considerations. On the other hand the characterization of waste drums containing radioactivity by measuring the drum as a whole (without opening) offers overall simplici...

The metabolism of inorganic sulfate in pancreatic acinar cells was studied by electron microscope radioautography in mice injected with sulfate-(35)S. Labeled sulfate was concentrated in the Golgi complex at 10 min. Within 30 min, much of the radioactive material had been transferred to condensing vacuoles. These were subsequently transformed into zymogen granules. By 4 hr after injection, some...

distribution of label in the IEA patterns of the SON fractions was not affected by the addition of serum carrier, it seems unlikely that nonspecific binding of radioactive material to serum proteins occurs to any appreciable extent. There is the possibility that highly radioactive material in the SON fraction migrating with the same electrophoretic mobility is trapped and concentrated in the im...
