Application of radionuclides in life sciences is of the greatest importance, and the largest single user of radionuclides is nuclear medicine. Shortly after the discovery of Ra in 1898 by Marie Curie and its subsequent isolation from pitchblende in amounts of 0.1 to 1 g, the finding that this element was useful as a ra...

The uptake of trace metals from the soil by plants and animals can be studied with high sensitivity by radiotracer techniques. In these applications, it is important that the chemical form of the radiotracer is identical with that of the trace element to be studied. For example, in agriculture, the uptake of trace elem...

One of the most important radionuclides in this group is 1231. This radioisotope of iodine has more favourable properties than 1311: it emits only y radiation and its relatively short half-life is more appropriate for medical application. Its production is described in section 12.1. Suitable accelerators for the genera...

In computer tomography (CT) with radionuclides, one or several radiation detectors, a computer and a display are used.

This 10th edition of Organic Chemistry is dedicated to the memory of my son, Peter McMurry, who passed away in 2019 after a lifelong struggle with Cystic Fibrosis (CF). He was brilliant, strong, and truly the kindest person I have ever known. ![](_page_12_Picture_4.jpeg) **Peter McMurry 12/10/1968 – 12/12/2019** ...

All the atoms of a given element have the same atomic number: 1 for hydrogen, 6 for carbon, 15 for phosphorus, and so on; but they can have different mass numbers depending on how many neutrons they contain. Atoms with the same atomic number but different mass numbers are called **isotopes**. The element carbon, for in...

Each C–H bond in methane has a strength of 439 kJ/mol (105 kcal/mol) and a length of 109 pm. Because the four bonds have a specific geometry, we also can define a property called the **bond angle**. The angle formed by each H–C–H is 109.5°, the so-called tetrahedral angle. Methane thus has the structure shown in **FIGU...

When first dealing with resonance forms, it's useful to have a set of guidelines that describe how to draw and interpret them.
