Radioactive sources have a shelf life of 18 months, after which they are no longer suitable for experiments. For this reason, we generally do not keep stock of this item.
The radioactive sources are securely housed in a 25mm diameter and 5mm thick plastic disc, clearly labelled with the radiation symbol.
Although the radioactivity level is very low, caution is still necessary. It is advisable to avoid prolonged carrying or placing these sources in pockets against the body.
These school-grade sources do not require licensing, but careful handling is crucial. To ensure safe usage, please follow these guidelines:
By adhering to these precautions, you can ensure responsible and secure exploration of radioactivity in educational settings.
