Irradiation

["Smalts, Earl RSO" <ssdehs@msmail.ttuhsc.edu>]

Greetings.  At my institution, I have a researcher that needs to irradiate 
blood samples up to the dose level of 100 kGy.  According to my 
calculations, it would take 16 hours in our small irradiator to reach that 
particular dose(impossible for a health care facility to dedicate the 
machine for that period of time).   Does anyone know of a private or 
commercial irradiator that he could contact to make arrangements to have his 
samples done for him?  Any and all replies would be great.  Please reply 
directly to my e-mail address unless you think the reply would benefit the 
group.  Thank you.
