Description

The radiolysis of pyrogallol red solution (PGR) by gamma radiation has been studied spectrophotometrically. The decrease in the absorbance of the characteristic band of pyrogallol red at 490 nm and pH 4 gives a reproducible response and an accurate means of dosimetry for the dose ranges 0.02-1.5 kGy.
