Radioisotope Safety Data Sheets

A radionuclide safety data sheet (RSDS) has been developed by Radiation Safety Services (RSS) to provide radiological safety information similar to the chemical hazard information found on a safety data sheet (SDS). An RSDS contains radionuclide-specific information that includes: physical data, radiological data, survey instrumentation recommendations, regulatory compliance information, and general radiological safety information for the following radionuclides:

• Calcium – 45
• Carbon – 14
• Chromium – 51
• Hydrogen – 3
• Iodine – 125
• Iodine – 131
• Phosphorus – 32
• Phosphorus – 33
• Ruthenium – 103
• Sodium – 22
• Sulphur – 35
• Technetium – 99m
• Thallium – 201
