How to Order Radioactive Material

All orders for radioactive material at UB must be placed on an original Radiation Safety Radioactive Materials Purchase Requisition. Failure to fill out all information on the requisition completely may delay the processing of your order. Be sure to include:

• Account number in the appropriate box (check either State, Research or UB Foundation)
• Complete Vendor address
• Name of the Principal Investigator the material is ordered for
• Requested delivery date - do not indicate ASAP. Please indicate the actual date you want the material
• Provide a complete description of the material ordered
• Indicate the activity in microcuries or millicuries
• List the person(s) to use the material
• List the location of use - Building and Room(s)
• Attach a new or amended protocol whenever experiments change

Have the Principal Investigator sign the form (even if not the authorized signature for funds) and FAX the requisition to Radiation Safety.
