Description

Blood Irradiator 2000 belonging to Radiation Biology and Health Science Division of BARC is mainly used for R and D purpose. Assurance that the biological samples are properly irradiated is very crucial for the end results of the research carried out; hence proper dosimetry of blood irradiator is of utmost importance. Aim of the present work was to perform relative percentage dose profile measurement in the central vertical plane of the irradiation volume of the Blood Irradiator 2000 using FBX dosimetric system. The dose profile was further intercompared with that obtained using Fricke dosimeter, which is a Reference Standard dosimeter
