Swipe Assays
نویسنده
چکیده
Swipe assays are routinely performed in laboratories and other facilities that use or handle radioactive materials. These assays, often referred to as smear or wipe tests, are performed to comply with radioactive material license requirements, assure laboratory safety, and provide information that proper handling procedures are being followed. Typically, swipes are performed to monitor for the presence of removable surface contamination from low energy beta-emitting radionuclides such as H, C, and S. Swipe assays are also used to detect the presence of alpha contamination.

متن کاملValidation of Bulk Analysis with Simulated Swipe Samples Containing Ultra- Trace Amounts of Uranium and Plutonium Using MC-ICP-MS
Suitable analytical procedures for the bulk analysis of ultra-trace amounts of uranium and plutonium have been developed using multi-collector inductively coupled mass spectrometry (MC–ICP–MS). The quantification and determination of the isotopic ratios of uranium and plutonium in three simulated swipe samples, a swipe blank, and a process blank were performed to validate the analytical perform...
متن کاملPoster: Soft-Swipe: Enabling High-Accuracy Pairing of Vehicles to Lanes using COTS Technology
In this paper we demonstrate a novel system Soft-Swipe, which can enable highly accurate pairing of vehicles to respective lanes in a wide-range of vehicle-based multi-lane service stations using economical general-purpose commodity communication and sensing technology. To study the system, we consider an example application of pairing vehicles to respective quality check bays in an automobile ...
متن کاملA Hybrid Swipe Fingerprint Mosaicing Scheme
Due to their very small contact areas and low cost, swipe fingerprint sensors provide the very convenient and reliable fingerprint security solutions and are being increasingly used for mobile phones, PDAs, portable computers and security applications. In this paper, the minimum mean absolute error as the registration criterion is used to find an integer translation shift while the extension of...
متن کاملDifferent strokes for different folks? Revealing the physical characteristics of smartphone users from their swipe gestures
Anthropometrics show that the lengths of many human body segments follow a common proportional relationship. To know the length of one body segment – such as a thumb – potentially provides a predictive route to other physical characteristics, such as overall standing height. In this study, we examined whether it is feasible that the length of a person's thumb could be revealed from the way in w...
