Description/Abstract:
BECAUSE THE METHOD OF PREPARING SAMPLES OF BIOLOGIC FLUIDS CONTAINING RADIOELEMENTS EMPLOYED IN TRACER STUDIES IN THE LABORATORY HAS PROVED TO BE SIMPLE, ACCURATE, INEXPENSIVE, AND DEPENDABLE IN MANY EXPERIMENTS, ITS DESCRIPTION WAS CONSIDERED ADVISABLE. THE SATISFACTORY REPRODUCIBILITY OF PREPARATION OF BIOLOGIC FLUIDS OF RELATIVELY LOW RADIOACTIVITY MAKES THE METHOD USEFUL IN RADIOBIOLOGY. THE DEPENDABILITY OF THE PREPARATION OF THE DISKS ALONE IS EVEN GREATER THAN THE VALUES INDICATE, SINCE THE MEASUREMENTS INCLUDE STATISTICAL ERRORS DUE TO COUNTING. A TECHNICIAN CAN ACCURATELY PREPARE A GREAT NUMBER OF SAMPLES PER DAY AFTER ACQUIRING EXPERIENCE.
