Student Geiger Counter
Student geiger counter and radiation dosimeter (radioactivity indicator) is designed
to measure ambient ionized radiation and radioactivity, as well as the accumulated
radiation dose received. This portable device detects Beta, Gamma, and X-ray
radiation, with results in 10 seconds. Can also be connected to a PC with included
software.

Amazing Modern Materials—
Multi-Demonstration Kit
This multi-demonstration kit includes:
• Ferrofluid—Dramatically demonstrate how magnetic nanoparticles respond to a
magnetic field.
• Liquid crystals—Liquid crystal molecules move independently like a liquid and also
organize themselves like a crystalline solid.
• Nitinol wire—Construct the desired shape of the nitinol wire in cold water. Then,
place it in hot water and watch it quickly and forcefully spring back to its original
shape.
Includes a reproducible student worksheet and detailed Teacher Notes with
instructions, tips, and answers to all questions.

Radioactive Sources
All student radioactive sources supplied by Flinn Scientific, Inc., are safe. All
student educational sources are considered “license exempt.” No U.S. Nuclear
Regulatory Commission or state licensing is required to obtain, handle or use
these sources because of the small amounts of radioactivity involved. The
radioactive chemicals in these low levels present no great radiation hazard.
This does not mean that license-exempt quantities of radioactive materials
should be handled indiscriminately; a laboratory worker should handle all
chemicals, radioactive or not, with care and respect. Common sense, good
technique and good housekeeping are just as essential with hydrochloric or
sulfuric acids as they are with radioactive materials.

PRACTICE GOOD HAND HYGIENE
Encourage students and staff to practice hand hygiene
etiquette and properly sanitize hands as they enter and exit
the Classroom/lab area and any time the share equipment.
Keep hand sanitizer accessible to students at all times.
Unless hands are visibly soiled, an alcohol-based hand rub
is preferred over soap and water in most clinical situations
due to evidence of better compliance compared to soap
and water.
Constant reminders about proper hand hygiene, respiratory
etiquette, and physical distancing guidelines will be useful
to enhance the awareness of the new routines.
