Every stock vial has a corresponding inventory form. A written log is maintained of radionuclides placed into waste containers. All radiation workers are registered with the Office of Research Safety. All radiation workers are trained in laboratory-specific radiation safety practices and controls. All containers of radioactive material bear a warning label.
Workers know the bioassay requirements and complete the bioassay column on inventory forms.
Avoid having to pay such costs out of your laboratory funds. Whenever possible use procedures and protocols that do not generate mixed wastes. Clear any suspect procedures with ORS in advance . Use this NUtrino as a training tool. Circulate it among the radiation workers in your group and have them sign and date the training form on the back.
