A SURVEY of the literature for the vapour pressure of hydrogen tritium oxide (HTO) revealed one reference only 1. No values were quoted for the vapour pressure at any temperature, but the authors ...

THYMIDINE is a specific precursor of deoxyribonucleic acid 1. The very low energy of tritium electrons permits precise localization on autoradiographs (within less than one micron on average ...

On the other hand, tritium is a fast-decaying radioelement of hydrogen that occurs only in trace quantities in nature.

The concentration of tritium in all locations was below the level at which the test used could detect the radioactive substance, TEPCO said. Before being released, the water was filtered to remove ...

Tritium, a hydrogen isotope with one proton and two neutrons, is extremely scarce in nature and is effectively obtained through exposure of lithium to the intense radiation in a reactor core.

To alleviate negative publicity, the government plans to quadruple the number of tritium-monitoring points in the ocean ahead of planned release of water accumulating at the crippled Fukushima No.
