Life Sciences

Radiation safety must be assured for researchers and other staff members working with or around radioactive materials.

Their safety depends on your ability to comply with radiation protection legislation across all levels of your organisation, from radiological risk assessment and emergency planning to facility testing, maintenance and decommissioning.

As the leading independent UK provider of radiation protection, we have more experts in more sectors than any other UK radiation protection company, including a number of world-class experts. This is especially true of life sciences, where we have an unrivalled expertise, providing a superb combination of technologically advanced knowledge, current sector knowledge, a comprehensive understanding of regulatory issues, and excellent practical experience to ensure we deliver the results you need.

As life sciences radiation protection is one of our strongest sectors, you can be sure that we will provide the commitment to deliver the best possible results for applications involving:

• The use of radionuclides such as tritium, carbon-14, phosphorus-32 and iodine-125
• The use of sealed sources, X-ray generators and linear accelerators

• Cyclotron facilities for the production of positron emission tomography (PET) isotopes
• The use and generation of radionuclides used in nuclear medicine for imaging purposes

We work with some of the most prestigious companies and organisations in the sector and are proud of our achievements for companies like Aptuit, GlaxoSmithKline and the Medical Research Council.
