Use of cesium-137 methodology in the evaluation of superficial erosive processes

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2003
Superficial erosion is one of the main soil degradation agents and erosion rates estimations for different edaphicclimate conditions for the conventional models, as USLE and RUSLE, are expensive and time-consuming.

Comparison of gamma and x-ray irradiation for myeloablation and establishment of normal and autoimmune syngeneic bone marrow chimeras.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Murine bone marrow (BM) chimeras are a versatile and valuable research tool in stem cell and immunology research. Engraftment of donor BM requires myeloablative conditioning of recipients.

Distribution of cesium-137 in reindeer

open access: yesRangifer, 1990
The influence of the Chernobyl accident in 1986 on the Finnish reindeer herding area was much smaller than the effects of the nuclear bomb tests in the 1960s.

Study of the 137Cs Stabilizer Source

open access: yesJournal of Isotopes, 2014
The attenuation laws of the Cesium -137 γ-ray penetrating the ceramic core、stainless steel and tungsten steel were studied. The radioactivity of the 137Cs stabilizer source was determined through the surface dose rate of 137Cs stabilizer sources.

Separation technique provides rapid quantitative determination of cesium-137 in irradiated nuclear fuel [PDF]

open access: yes, 1967
Potassium cobalt ferrocyanide is used to determine cesium-137 activity in irradiated fuel samples. It preferentially removes cesium from an acid solution of the fuel material.
