Regulations require a license for the sale of radioactive substances in Switzerland. Swiss customers are kindly requested when ordering, to include their license number, issued by the Swiss Public Health Authorities.
The hydrothermal reactions of thorium nitrate and uranyl acetate with carboxyphenylphosphonic acid and HF result in the formation of ThF(2)(PO(3)C(6)H(4)CO(2)H) and UO(2)(PO(3)HC(6)H(4)CO(2)H)(2).2H(2)O, respectively. ThF(2)(PO(3)C(6)H(4)CO(2)H) adopts a pillared structure constructed from thorium oxyfluoride layers built from [ThO(4)F(4)] units that are bridged
The action of 232Th-nitrate in concentration 0.09, 0.18 and 0.36 mg/l (counting on 232Th ion) on water cultures of Tradescantia (clone 02) was investigated. It was found that all investigated concentrations of 232Th showed statistically significant genotoxic effect and increased
We studied the effects of both: of the separate and of the combined exposure to gamma-radiation (absorbed doses for 30 days were 1.4-1.8 cGy, for 90 days were 4.3-5.4 cGy) and 232Th nitrate (in concentrations 6.0; 20.0 and 60.0 mg/l)
Thoron and progeny are decay products of (232)Th with a great impact on human health. The release of thoron gas from the mining and milling of thorite, monazite and other major thorium ores has been recognised as a potential radiological

A method for determining the specific alpha activity of thick sources using a large area ZnS(Ag) scintillation detector is presented. In this method a quadratic relationship between the detector response and window thickness is assumed. This method provides a quick
