SDS for radioactive sources

Post by Kathryn »

Hi all

Do you have an SDS for your radioactive sources? I have gone directly to the manufacturer in USA and they have said the sources are exempt and provided an exemption letter. Seems to me this is a bit meaningless even if the sources are low risk. Can anyone tell me what they have?
Thanks
