Sensitivity and stability of the Fricke–gelatin–xylenol orange gel dosimeter
Spectrophotometric measurements of the Fricke–gelatin–xylenol orange (FGX) gel dosimeter demonstrated reproducible linear dose response up to 25Gy. However, oxidation processes continue post-irradiation, affecting the response of this dosimetry system. Additional oxygenation during preparation increases the sensitivity of the gel but does not improve the auto-oxidation stability of the dosimete...
متن کاملEvaluation of Ferrous-Agarose-Xylenol Gel Properties in Radiation Dosimetry
Background: Over recent decades, modern protocols of external beam radioÂtherapy and radiation techniques such as intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) have been developed. These methods are extremely sensitive to errors in treatment delivery, so that it is essential to apply a high resolution 3D dosimetry system that has high sensitivity and is capable of measuring and verifying the complex...
متن کاملDetermination of hydroperoxides in aqueous solutions containing surfactants by the ferrous oxidation-xylenol orange method.
Some surfactants widely used as additives in food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetic formulations are susceptible to peroxidation resulting in accumulation of hydroperoxides (HP). Our investigation was aimed to study the possible influence of different surfactants on the proportionality and reproducibility of the ferrous oxidation-xylenol orange method developed originally for the determination of ...
متن کاملToluidine Blue O-Gelatin Gel Dosimeter for Radiation Processing
In this study the spectrophotometric response of the Toluidine Blue O (TBO)-gelatin gel dosimeter irradiated with gamma rays was characterized. Preparation of dyed-gelatin gel takes place in neutral medium; to give eventually gel dosimeter has a sharp absorbance peak at 635 nm that bleaches quantitatively upon irradiation and the colour change can be measured with UV-VIS spectrophotometer. The ...
متن کاملDiffusion measurement in ferrous infused gel dosimeters
Background: The compositions of Ferrous sulphate, Agarose and Xylenol orange dye (FAX) and Ferrous sulphate, Gelatin and Xylenol orange dye (FGX) in solution of distilled water and sulphuric acid are two tissue-equivalent gel dosimeters. Ionizing radiation causes oxidation of Fe2+ ion to Fe3+ ions which diffuse through the gel matrix and blur the image of absorbed dose over a period of hours af...
