Radiochemistry and Nuclear Chemistry

Radiochemistry and Nuclear Chemistry Laboratory at Washington University

(B) Multi-elemental analysis by X-ray fluorescence. (use in Art, Archeology and environmental science)(1 week). The advent of inexpensive high-resolution X-ray spectrometers based on thermoelectrically cooled Si-PIN diodes has opened the possibility of many innovative experiments in analytical chemistry with many applications in art and archeology, environmental monitoring, nuclear medicine, to...

Radiochemistry and Radiopharmaceutical Chemistry for Medicine

International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry Analytical Chemistry Division Commission on Radiochemistry and Nuclear Techniques* Isotopic and Nuclear Analytical Techniques in Biological Systems a Critical Survey

Covalent binding of chemicals or their metabolites to DNA is a critical event in the initiation of chemical carcinogenesis. Measurement of covalent DNA adducts in model and human systems has become an important tool in mutation and cancer research. The recently developed , highly sensitive 32P-postlabeling assay of DNA adducts and its applications are critically reviewed. Basic features of assa...

International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry Analytical Chemistry Division Commission on Radiochemistry and Nuclear Techniques* Critical Evaluation of the Chemical Properties of the Transactinide Elements

In this paper, the chemical properties of the transactinide elements rutherfordium, Rf (element 104); dubnium, Db (element 105); and seaborgium, Sg (element 106) are critically reviewed. The experimental methods for performing rapid chemical separations on a time scale of seconds are reviewed, and comments are given on the special situation with the transactinides for which the chemistry has to...
