  1. CRTI 06-0230 RD: Rapid Methods for Emergency Bioassay Chunsheng Li, Health Canada Gary Kramer, Health Canada Baki Sadi, Health Canada Diana Wilkinson, DRDC-Ottawa Kui Yu, National Research Council Yi Cui, National Research Council Edward Lai, Carleton University Amy Hrdina, Carleton University Negar Bahraini, Carleton University

  2. Project Introduction • Project Background - Rapid bioassay is required to screen large population - Po-210 and Sr-90 are two high risk but “difficult” radionuclides • Design Objectives - Detection Limit: 10% of derived urine action level (Bq/L) based on 500 mSv committed effective dose equivalent from inhalation - Urine throughput: 120 samples in the first 48 hours per system - Feces throughput: 20 samples in the first 48 hours per system

  3. Project Tasks • Developing rapid methods for measuring Po-210 and Sr-90 in bioassay samples using “traditional approach” - Based on currently available techniques - Focusing on rapidness, sensitivity, accuracy, repeatability, and field deployability etc - Studying the metabolism of Po-210 • Exploring the application of new materials and new technology to radiation assessment - Application of quantum dots in radiation measurement - Application of magnetic nano-parrticles in sample preparation

  12. Achievements To Date (IV):Metabolism of Po-210 in Rats • Primary: volatile Po-210 species in excreta - Implicating the accuracy in radiation dose assessment - Implicating in radiation protection - Providing information for bioassay method development • Secondary: IR imaging – change in thermal profile for invasive screening • Secondary: excretion and bio-kinetics - Excretion via urine - Excretion via feces - Distributions in tissues/organs
