Cleaver Scientific has introduced over 120 radiation safety products which provide protection for laboratory personnel involved in applications where either beta or gamma emitting compounds are used
Safe and effective protection from radioactive compounds is an essential requirement in certain life science research laboratories, for example those handling either beta or gamma emitting materials used in the detection of nucleic acids and proteins, or other techniques, such as radioimmunoassay and metabolic studies.
Cleaver Scientific (CSL) has introduced a wide range of over 120 radiation safety products which provide optimum protection for laboratory personnel involved in applications where either beta or gamma emitting compounds are used.
The range includes; shields, boxes, racks, waste bins, spillage trays and cabinets.
Flexibility and low cost are important requirements for many customers and CSL meet this demand by offering custom-built shields and boxes which are manufactured in a variety of shapes and sizes to suit most applications and budgets.
The storage boxes are ideal for waste materials and samples, interchangeable inserts can hold various sizes of tubes, such as micro-centrifuge, centrifuge tubes, scintillation vials, universals, cryotubes and falcon tubes.
Drawstring heavy-duty waste bags are also available.
Free standing bench top bins with hinged lids and anti-slip feet are ideal for short term storage of radioactive materials In addition to the standard 10mm thick beta protection and 12mm thick lead impregnated gamma protection shielding, is 35mm thick lead impregnated, providing gamma attenuation equivalent to 1.5mm thick lead and 70mm thick, offering gamma attenuation equivalent to 3.0mm thick lead.
The key features of these protection products are; clear optical for unobstructed view, choice of angle to suit location, most shields are available in small and large sizes, large flat base models for under-bench protection, curved base models which are compatible with safety spill trays and boxes and bins available with hinged lids in a variety of designs and sizes.
Finally, Cleaver Scientific can provide a DuoShield specifically for those applications which require safe protection from both beta and gamma emissions.
