Abstract
Scientific knowledge has been considerably advanced by the use of biochemical molecules which incorporate radioisotopes at specific sites. This unit provides an overview of the use of radioisotopes in the biochemical laboratory. It begins with a discussion of the principles of radioactivity in order to provide the reader/user with knowledge on which to base a common sense approach to the safe use of isotopes. The characteristics of isotopes most commonly used in a biochemical laboratory are then detailed, as well as the safety precautions and monitoring methods peculiar to each one. Detection and imaging methods used in experimental analysis are reviewed. Finally, an outline of an orderly, proper response to a spill of radioactive material is presented. © 2018 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
辐射安全与测量
通过在特定位置结合放射性同位素的生物化学分子的使用,科学知识得到了相当大的进步。本单元概述了放射性同位素在生物化学实验室中的使用情况。它从讨论放射性原理开始,以便为读者/用户提供知识,从而为同位素的安全使用提供常识性方法。然后详细介绍了生物化学实验室中最常用的同位素的特征,以及每种同位素特有的安全预防措施和监测方法。综述了实验分析中使用的检测和成像方法。最后,概述了对放射性物质泄漏的有序、适当的反应。©2018 John Wiley&Sons,股份有限公司版权所有。
