Radioactive Samples
Some protein chemistry services such as preparative HPLC
and Edman sequencing may be carried out on samples that
contain [3H], [14C],
[35S] or [32P] where
the radioactive isotope is essential for the project
to succeed and where the total quantity of isotope is below
1.0 µCi. If you are considering preparing and
submitting a radioactive sample, you should first send an
outline of the project to the Protein
Chemistry Section before proceeding with final planning
of the experiment. In addition, prior to bringing or
shipping radioactive samples to the Keck Facility, you must
request additional instructions (including a special
shipping address) from
Mary LoPresti. Radioactive (and/or
other hazardous material) samples can NOT be walked or otherwise
transported to 300 George Street without the assistance of OEHS.
Radioactive samples that are brought, or are shipped to the Keck
Laboratory without following these instructions will be declined. Due
to the added work involved in meeting NRC regulations, all analyses on
radioactive samples will be subject to a $100 surcharge.
