Transport of Zinc‐65 at the Blood‐Brain Barrier During Short Cerebrovascular Perfusion in the Rat: Its Enhancement by Histidine
Journal of neurochemistry, 2002Co-Authors: S. Buxani-rice, F. Ueda, M. W. B. BradburyAbstract:Zinc-65 transport into different regions of rat brain has been measured during short vascular perfusion of one cerebral hemisphere with an oxygenated HEPES-containing physiological saline at pH 7.40. The [Zn2+] was buffered with either bovine serum albumin or histidine. In each case uptake was linear with time up to 90 s. 65Zn flux into brain in the presence of albumin followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics and for parietal cortex had a Km of 16 nM and a Vmax of 44 nmol/kg/min. Increasing concentrations of L-histidine enhanced 65Zn flux into brain at [Zn2+] values between 1 and 1,000 nM. The combined effect of [histidine] and [Zn2+] was best accounted for by a function of [ZnHis+], i.e., flux = 64.4.[ZnHis+]/(390 + [ZnHis+]) + 0.00378.[ZnHis+], with concentrations being nanomolar. D-Histidine had an influence similar to that of L-histidine. 65Zn flux in the presence of 100 microM L-histidine was not affected by either 500 microM L-arginine or 500 microM L-phenylanine. The results indicate specific transport of Zn2+ across the plasma membranes of brain endothelium. The enhancement due to histidine has been attributed to diffusion of ZnHis+ across unstirred layers "ferrying" Zinc to and from transport sites.

Analysis of Zinc 65 Contamination After Vacuum Thermal Process
Journal of Failure Analysis and Prevention, 2013Co-Authors: Paul S. Korinko, Michael H. TostenAbstract:Radioactive contamination with a gamma energy emission consistent with ^65Zn was detected in a glovebox following a vacuum thermal process. The contaminated components were removed from the glovebox and subjected to examination. Selected analytical techniques were used to determine the nature of the precursor material, i.e., oxide or metallic, the relative transferability of the deposit and its nature. The deposit was determined to be borne from natural Zinc and was further determined to be deposited as a metallic material from vapor.

Summary Report for Zinc 65 Contamination Control
2011Co-Authors: Paul S. KorinkoAbstract:Radioactive Zinc, {sup 65}Zn, was detected after extraction of 215 TPBARs in from TVA reactor fuel cycle 6. A team consisting of Tritium Engineering, Tritium Operations, Tritium Radiation Control, and Savannah River National Laboratory personnel evaluated the risk and response and developed short, medium and long term goals for contamination control. One of the goals was incorporated into site Performance Based Incentive CO 3.4, to optimize the filter geometry and operating conditions for the Tritium Extraction Facility. This goal included a scoping study to determine if the contamination could be contained within the high radiation environment of the furnace module as well. In order to optimize the filters studies were conducted to independently evaluate the effect of pore size on pumping efficiency and Zinc trapping efficiency (1). A study was also conducted to evaluate the effect of temperature on the trapping efficiency and adhesion (2). In addition, the potential for chemically trapping Zinc in the lithium trap was evaluated using a thermodynamic study (3) followed by preliminary experimental testing (4). Based on the work that was completed it is determined that a 20 {mu}m filter heated to between 120 and 200 C will act as an effective physical trap formore » Zinc vapors. It may be possible to chemically react Zinc with copper or cobalt to form Zinc intermetallic compounds or alloys but additional work under more prototypic conditions are required.« less
