GSR C1
The main applications of the GSR-C1 irradiator unit are:
- Blood and blood derivatives
- Cell cultures
Gamma-irradiation prevents the partitionability of immunocomptent cells. The transmission of these cells, without irradiation, can cause serious and often fatal complication.
Graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) for immunodeficient patients.
Radio Biological Research
- In-vitro-analysis of radio-sensitivity of perpheric and modulated blood cells
- Identification of histocompatability via an analysis of lymphocyte culture
- Analysis after irradiation of the molecular mechanism in the case of disease which are connected a defect of the enzyme system.
The equipment and specs
The self-shielded GSR-C1 contains up to 3 Cs-137 sources with a maximum total activity of between 40-120 TBq. The half-life period of the CS-137 is 30,2 years.
Radiation protection the dose rate of <5μ Sv/hr at the surface of the irradiation device is below the regulated limit value.
