10 CFR 32.74 - Manufacture and distribution of sources or devices containing byproduct material for medical use. | LII / Legal Information Institute
CFR › Title 10 › Chapter I › Part 32 › Subpart C › Section 32.74 10 CFR 32.74 - Manufacture and distribution of sources or devices containing byproduct material for medical use.
§ 32.74
An application for a specific license to manufacture and distribute sources and devices containing byproduct material to persons licensed under part 35 of this chapter for use as a calibration, transmission, or reference source or for the uses listed in §§ 35.400, 35.500, 35.600, and 35.1000 of this chapter will be approved if:
The applicant satisfies the general requirements in § 30.33 of this chapter;
The applicant submits sufficient information regarding each type of source or device pertinent to an evaluation of its radiation safety, including:
The byproduct material contained, its chemical and physical form, and amount;
Details of design and construction of the source or device;
Procedures for, and results of, prototype tests to demonstrate that the source or device will maintain its integrity under stresses likely to be encountered in normal use and accidents;
For devices containing byproduct material, the radiation profile of a prototype device;
Details of quality control procedures to assure that production sources and devices meet the standards of the design and prototype tests;
Procedures and standards for calibrating sources and devices;
Legend and methods for labeling sources and devices as to their radioactive content;
Instructions for handling and storing the source or device from the radiation safety standpoint; these instructions are to be included on a durable label attached to the source or device or attached to a permanent storage container for the source or device: Provided, That instructions which are too lengthy for such label may be summarized on the label and printed in detail on a brochure which is referenced on the label;
The label affixed to the source or device, or to the permanent storage container for the source or device, contains information on the radionuclide, quantity and date of assay, and a statement that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission has approved distribution of the (name of source or device) to persons licensed to use byproduct material identified in §§ 35.65, 35.400, 35.500, and 35.600 as appropriate, and to persons who hold an equivalent license issued by an Agreement State. However, labels worded in accordance with requirements that were in place on March 30, 1987 may be used until March 30, 1989.
The source or device has been registered in the Sealed Source and Device Registry.
In the event the applicant desires that the source or device be required to be tested for leakage of radioactive material at intervals longer than six months, he shall include in his application sufficient information to demonstrate that such longer interval is justified by performance characteristics of the source or device or similar sources or devices and by design features that have a significant bearing on the probability or consequences of leakage of radioactive material from the source.
In determining the acceptable interval for test of leakage of radioactive material, the Commission will consider information that includes, but is not limited to:
Radiotoxicity of contained radioactive material;
Operating experience with identical sources or devices or similarly designed and constructed sources or devices.
If an application is filed pursuant to paragraph (a) of this section on or before October 15, 1974, for a license to manufacture and distribute a source or device that was distributed commercially on or before August 16, 1974, the applicant may continue the distribution of such source or device to group licensees until the Commission issues the license or notifies the applicant otherwise.
