background: 99mtc is a widely used radioisotope in nuclear medicine centers which is obtained by elution from mo-99/tc-99m generators. usually the generators are either supplied by the iran atomic energy agency or by private companies from foreign countries. in this study we have measured 99mo contamination in 99mtc elute from different generators in a period of one year. materials and methods:...

Tera Becquerel quantities of a number of radioisotopes such as 131I, 99Mo, 32P, 153Sm, 51Cr, 82Br, 203Hg, 140La, 46Sc, etc. are produced in various radiochemical forms and regularly supplied through Board of Radiation & Isotope Technology (BRIT) for applications in medicine, industry, biology, agriculture and research & development activities. These radioisotopes are produced by neutron activat...

Palygorskite clay has been investigated as low cost and ecofriendly adsorbent for the removal Basic Red 2(BR-2) from aqueous solution. Batch adsorption studies are carried out by observing effect of amount of adsorbent dose, contact time, pH, initial concentration of ( BR-2) and particle size of adsorbent on the adsorption capacity of the adsorbent were studied. Adsorption data fits the Langmui...
