Ion-Imprinted Polymer Concept for Selective Extraction of 90Y and 152Eu for Medical Applications and Nuclear Power Plant Monitoring

Pascal Froidevaux; Steffen Happel; Anne-Sophie Chauvin

CHIMIA, Vol. 60 No. 4 · 2006 · French · DOAJ Scopus

The metal ion imprinted concept has been used to imprint dipicolinic derivative coordination cages in styrene-based polymeric material. This resin displays very high selectivity for yttrium and lanthanides. Distribution coefficients determined for 88Y and 85Sr emphasize the possibility for the…

Radionuclides in the Environment in Switzerland: A Retrospective Study of Transfer from Soil to the Human Body

Pascal Froidevaux; Pierre-André Pittet; Ruslan Cusnir et al.

CHIMIA, Vol. 74 No. 12 · 2020 · French · DOAJ Scopus

Natural radionuclides are ubiquitous in the environment. In addition, artificial radionuclides are present in the Swiss environment after the fallout of the nuclear bomb tests of the 1950s and 1960s, after the accident of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, or after authorized discharges from the…

210Po and 210Pb content in the smoke of Heated Tobacco Products versus Conventional Cigarette smoking

Aurélie Berthet; Audrey Butty; Jérémie Rossier et al.

Scientific Reports, Vol. 12 No. 1 · 2022 · English · DOAJ Scopus

Abstract 210Po is a radioactive component of conventional cigarette tobacco smoke and is a recognized carcinogen. Despite the expanding market of heated tobacco products, no data are available on the activity of 210Po in the smoke of IQOS Heets cigarette. We determined the 210Po activity in the…
