Cobalt-60 Nuclear Generating Station. The cobalt targets are substituted here for a small number of fuel assemblies. After entering a living mammal (such as a human being), some of the is excreted in feces. The remainder is taken up by tissues, mainly the liver, kidneys, and bones, where the prolonged exposure to gamma radiation can cause cancer. Over time, the absorbed cobalt is eliminated in urine. Cobalt is an element used to make steel. Uncontrolled disposal of in scrap metal is responsible for the radioactivity found in several iron-based products. In August 2012, Petco recalled several models of steel pet food
Cobalt-59 nuclear magnetic resonance rather small line width. Systems of low symmetry can yield broadened signals to an extent that renders the signals unobservable in fluid phase NMR, in these cases signals can still be observable in solid state NMR. Cobalt-59 nuclear magnetic resonance Cobalt-59 nuclear magnetic resonance is a form of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy that uses cobalt-59, a cobalt isotope. Co is a nucleus of spin 7/2 and 100% abundancy. The nucleus has a magnetic quadrupole moment. Among all NMR active nuclei, Co has the largest chemical shift range and the chemical shift can be correlated with the spectrochemical series. Resonances are
