Zn-65 Factsheet

["Richard C. Mannix" <rcmannix@uci.edu>]

I am looking for a safety factsheet for Zn-65, a radionuclide which is not
very commonly used at UCI. I have searched the Internet for such a
factsheet, but the material I have found thus far is (as I expected) for
the most commonly-used radionuclides such as P-32, H-3, I-125, etc.

I could assemble this factsheet myself, but I am trying to avoid needing to
"re-invent the wheel". Information such as the half-life, emissions, etc.,
is easy to get, but I'm looking for a more complete accounting which
includes information such as special safety precautions, dose rates at
specified distances, ALI, etc.

Anybody know where I can find a Zn-65 factsheet?
