  Radioactivity: An Introduction to Mysterious Science
  Author(s): Nida Tabassum KhanNida Tabassum Khan
  
  Materials that undergo decay process to attain a stable configuration followed by the emission of particles such as alpha, beta and gamma are termed as radioactive elements. Radioactivity is measured in Curie (Ci) and Becquerel (Bq) SI units. Though radioactive elements are abundant on Earth and constantly decays to produce stable nuclei but such nuclear decay process may pose serious health threats to living beings. Therefore, must be regulated when working in vitro. Biosafety levels should be strictly observed when engaged in radioactive experiments to minimize contamination exposure. .. View More»
