REVISS® Services (UK) Ltd. designs and manufactures sealed radiation sources, marketed under the brand identities of PURIDEC® Irradiation Technologies and REVISS® Isotopes. PURIDEC® products and services are used by the radiation processing industry for the gamma sterilisation of many consumer products in everyday use. REVISS® Isotopes supplies a wide range of bulk isotopes to manufacturing customers in healthcare and life sciences.
Cs-137 (RSL6050/60) - Use for blood irradiation - the most effective and reliable method to prevent Transfer Associated Graft Versus Host Disease (TA-GVHD), a condition where T-lymphocytes in the transfused blood proliferate in the patient and initiate an immune system reaction in the patient. Most at risk are immunodeficient or immunocompromised patients.
Gadolinium-153 - Used in bone densitometry. The gadolinium source comprises a compressed pellet of gadolinium oxide, argon-arc welded in a titanium alloy capsule.
Co-57 in Rhodium Matrix - Mössbauer spectroscopy is used primarily to study the electron structure of materials. The use of high purity materials and high specific activity cobalt-57 (>6000 Ci/g) permits the production of sources with single Lorentzian lines with near natural line width (0.11 – 0.13 mm/s)
