SUMMARY: RADIOCHEMISTRY ANALYTICAL TRACK 2 (ALPHA EXPANSION) Food safety can be threatened by radioactive contamination: isotopes that are naturally present in environmental samples in low abundance can reach dangerously elevated levels through nuclear plant malfunctions, radiotherapeutic accidents, terrorism, or even rare natural phenomina. The core tenet of this large and multifaceted proposal is to contribute a comprehensive and integrated food protection laboratory hub to the Food Emergency Response Network (FERN) that is capable of analyzing many different foods across a diversity of threat priorities. In addition to our capabilities, our goal relies on having the needed capacity to detect and identify a wide range of radionuclides in foods. Since the current FERN radiochemistry CAP grant is finishing its tenure in a few months, the Radiation section now seeks to be incorporated into the current multi-faceted cooperative agreement, and in doing so to expand its alpha spectrometry capacity by purchasing a second instrument and training additional personnel. This will strengthen and unify our involvement in FERN. Through this analytical track the laboratory will achieve the prescribed track Specific Aims.

总结：放射化学分析轨道2（α展开） 食品安全可能受到放射性污染的威胁：天然存在于食品中的同位素。 低丰度的环境样本可以通过核电站达到危险的高水平 故障，辐射事故，恐怖主义，甚至罕见的自然现象。的核心宗旨 这一庞大而多方面的建议将有助于全面和综合的粮食保护， 食品紧急反应网络（FERN）的实验室中心，能够分析许多 不同的食物在不同的威胁优先级。除了我们的能力，我们的目标还依赖于 具备检测和识别食品中多种放射性核素的必要能力。以来 目前的FERN放射化学CAP赠款将在几个月内结束其任期，辐射部分 现在寻求被纳入目前的多方面合作协议，并在这样做， 通过购买第二台仪器和培训，扩大其阿尔法光谱测定能力 额外的人员。这将加强和统一我们在FERN的参与。通过这种分析 轨道实验室将实现规定的轨道具体目标。
