Tungsten syringe shield for radiopharma applications
Enhance radiation safety during syringe handling with specialized shielding designed to protect personnel while maintaining operational efficiency in radiopharmaceutical and nuclear medicine applications.

Shields and Simplifies Syringe Handling
The PST Series Tungsten Syringe Shield from Comecer offers robust protection and ergonomic handling for radiopharmaceutical applications. Constructed from tungsten, it effectively shields syringes during manual operations, particularly in radiopharma and nuclear medicine industries, ensuring safety when handling isotopes like Technetium-99m and Lutetium-177. This manual shielding component seamlessly integrates into laboratory settings, minimizing radiation exposure during preparation and administration of radiopharmaceuticals. The PST-5 and PST-10 models accommodate different syringe volumes, designed for 5 ml and 10 ml, respectively, and feature a central notch for enhanced maneuverability. Engineered for durability and ease of use, the shields comply with rigorous safety standards, providing reliable radiation protection in high-stakes environments.
