Commercial radioisotopes are radionuclides that are produced for commercial use. The number of different applications is large, and even the variety of areas in which radionuclides are needed is broad. Medicine and other biotechnology includes the use of the principles and materials (the commercial radioisotopes) of radiation biophysics in medical treatment, diagnosis and research. Commercial radioisotopes are also used in a broad range of investigation into the chemistry and physics of materials. Certainly we have need for radiation sources for X-rays and for irradiation sterilization of different things, and commercial radioisotopes meet these needs with radioactive products. In summary, commercial radioisotopes are the radioactive materials that are industrially (commercially) manufactured in the physics lab at a nuclear facility (using a nuclear reactor, a cyclotron or other accelerator, or by bombardment from a source) for commercial application, whatever that may be.
What else can I help you with?
How does a PET Scan use Radioisotope decay?
A PET scan uses radioisotope decay by detecting the pair of annihilation photons emitted during the decay process.
What is a radioisotope in chem?
Radioactive isotopes.
Nuclear medicine techniques work through the detection of this kind of radiation injected into the body by adding a radioisotope to a certain drug?
Nuclear medicine techniques depend on detecting gamma rays emitted by the radioisotope injected into the body. The radioisotope is attached to a specific drug that targets particular organs or tissues. By monitoring the distribution of the radioisotope, healthcare providers can diagnose and treat various medical conditions.
What radioisotope is used to detect changes in bodily functions?
Tracer
What is a half-line of a radioisotope if a 50-g sample becomes 25g after 18 days?
A half-life of a radioisotope is the time required for half of a sample to decay. In this case, a 50-g sample becoming 25 g after 18 days indicates that the half-life of the radioisotope is 18 days, as the sample has decreased to half its original amount in that time.
A specific example of commercial radioisotope?
A specific example is Am-241
What is an accented syllable in radioisotope?
Radioisotope is accented on the fourth syllable.
What is radioisotope in a sentence?
radioisotope are very useful today. You can diagnose many things with them.
What is a high -energy photons emited by a radioisotope?
Gamma radiation is high-energy photons emitted by a radioisotope.
What is the half life of the Radioisotope Na22?
The half-life of the radioisotope Na-22 is 2.6 years.
How many half lives does it take for half of a radioisotope to dissipate?
It depends on the radioisotope. They do not all have the same half life.
Which is not a characteristic of energy?
the answer is humidity
What is half life of a radioisotope if a g sample becomes g after 16 hours?
16 hours.
Which radioisotope among the following has the shortest half-life?
The radioisotope with the shortest half-life among the following options is Polonium-214.
What has the author Bengt Bodforss written?
Bengt Bodforss has written: 'Radioisotope scanning of the brain' -- subject(s): Brain, Radiography, Radioisotope scanning
Which radioisotope is a beta emitter?
90-Sr is the answer.
What is the term for an atom that has an unstable nucleus?
radioisotope
