  3. 3. Primordial radionuclides in pit lakes in Sweden

    Author : Rimon Thomas; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; non-uranium mines; water; sediment; radiochemistry; principle component analysis;

    Abstract : In Sweden, there are many pit lakes, originating from limestone quarries and metal mines, with unknown status in regard to the activity concentration of radionuclides. Such knowledge is generally available only for pit lakes from uranium mining activi-ties. READ MORE

  4. 4. Method development for [11C]carbon monoxide radiochemistry

    Author : Mélodie Ferrat; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Positron emission tomography (PET) is a non-invasive molecular imaging technique that has found extensive utility in biomedical research and in drug development. A fundamental pre-requisite for PET is the tracer, which is a biologically relevant molecule, labeled with a short-lived radionuclide. READ MORE

  5. 5. Methodological advancements in microfluidic and carbonylation PET radiochemistry

    Author : Kenneth Dahl; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Along with the progress of PET as a powerful imaging tool in medicine, there has been increasing demand for new labeling methods. The main aim of this PhD dissertation was to develop novel labeling methodologies using the positron emitter carbon-11. READ MORE
