The contamination is also likely to spread beyond shrimp, the bulletin said.

Researchers have reported new experimental results addressing the origin of rare proton-rich isotopes heavier than iron, ...

Brazil nuts are an especially nutrient-rich source of food: They contain important minerals like calcium and magnesium, essential amino acids and unsaturated fatty acids. Brazil nuts are characterized ...

The Indonesian shrimp flagged as a health hazard had 68 becquerels of Cesium-137. The FDA’s “derived intervention level” — more of a guideline than an enforceable standard — is about 20 times higher, ...

The standard should be, if Cesium-137 or other isotopes of concern are detectable in food items, they ought to be pulled off ...

A South African university launched an anti-poaching campaign Thursday to inject the horns of rhinos with radioactive isotopes that it says are harmless for the animals but can be detected by customs ...

In this lesson, students will investigate the nature of radioactivity and the effect of both distance and shielding materials on different radioactive sources using a Geiger-Muller tube with a counter ...

The Rhisotope Project is embedding radioactive isotopes in the horns of rhinos in an effort to prevent poaching. Rhinos previously injected with the isotopes during Rhisotope's test phase turned out ...

MOKOPANE, South Africa — A South African university launched an anti-poaching campaign Thursday to inject the horns of rhinos with radioactive isotopes that it says are harmless for the animals but ...

Just like Nvidia's GPUs are the key to AI, radioactive isotopes are the key to nuclear power, but are also used in quantum ...

There was a recent recall of so-called ‘radioactive shrimp’ that were potentially contaminated with cesium-137 (Cs-137). But contamination isn’t an all-or-nothing affair, so you might wonder exactly ...
