RE: Medical waste containing radioactive material

[BATTAGTM@BSCMAIL.BuffaloState.edu]

Bob, 
	You might want to contact COSTAR in Cambridge, Mass at
1-800-492-1110. They had an autoclave bag for mixed waste a few years back.
I'm not sure if they are still around but the bag catalog number was #8460.

	Hello: I have a researcher who wishes to use radioactive material
with
	tuberculosis (tB). We will need to autoclave the waste without
generating
	contamination in the autoclave. I use to use this filter device for
the
	same purpose at another institute at which I worked. However, the
name of
	the device and the company that sold it escapes me. Can anybody help
me
	with with the name and company? you can email me at
caspar@aecom.yu.edu.

	Thank you.
