A l'ouverture d'un flacon de méthionine 35S il peut s'échapper de 35 à 60 kBq de radioactivité sous forme volatile selon le degré de radiolyse. Bien que cela ne représente que le 1/500e de la LAI (limite d'incorporation) il est préférable de manipuler sous hotte ventilée et si possible de prélever sans ouvrir le flacon.
Abstract
On the opening of a container of 35S methionine, 35 to 60 kBq of radioactivity, depending on the extent of radiolysis, can escape in the form of volatile compounds. Although this represents only 0.2 % of the ALI (annual limit on intake) it is preferable to work with a ventilated fume hood and, if possible, to use a syringe to sample the labelled methionine.
