Tracking & Reporting Radioactive substances

Comply with all your regulatory requirements

The use of radioactivity has a wide range of applications in various fields, such as medicine, academics, agriculture and industry. While the application and use of radioactivity will vary between the types of research being undertaken, the need to comply with environment agency regulations is largely the same.

Radioactivity may be used to study chemical, physiological or metabolic process using many methods such as tracers.

Each research centre is legally obligated to comply with its permit requirements for keeping or using radioactive substances or storing or disposing of radioactive waste. IsoStock aids research organisations in complying with regulatory requirements within the UK, including the Environment Agency (EA), Natural Resources Wales (NRW) and the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA).

IsoStock is designed to aid researchers in record keeping and complying with regulatory requirements.

IsoStock is driven by end-user data collection using intuitive and easy-to-use dedicated screens and automatically decay corrects to reduce the risk of errors in record keeping through manual calculations or processes.

We manage both Open and Sealed Sources

Reduce your risk with IsoStock

IsoStock manages both Open and Sealed sources.

Open – allows record keeping for all stages of ordering, authorising, diluting, synthesising and waste management and disposal.

Sealed – allows record keeping for standalone sources and those housed with equipment. It will track all movements and leak tests with the option to add photos.

Many organisations have explored or developed different solutions to comply with record-keeping requirements. Although paper, Excel and Access-based systems may seem a cheap solution, this is far from the truth. The actual time involved in maintaining these, the lack of control or real-time compliance, and the potential for errors make a dedicated system like IsoStock a much more attractive solution. A complete solution, with all data managed inside the application, integrated editing functionality and comprehensive audit trail.

IsoStock offers research institutions a system designed and built to do the job by a provider with 25 years of experience working and being trusted by the industry. Simple and straightforward implementation, we work with you to ensure the system is configured and usable from day one. With ongoing and continuous product development based on user feedback

IsoStock has a dedicated screen to allow end-users to rapidly enter dilutions and synthesising details without causing inconvenience to the researchers.

The software is configured to meet organisations individual needs to improve ease of adoption and day-to-day use. Report options include mandatory reports such as release inventory but can also be user-defined for the varying needs of the sector.

What our customers say

IsoStock is a master-class in the advantage of evolution over revolution. Developed and refined over decades, the system simply does everything we require. We recently wanted a tweak to encompass a new parameter we wanted to measure (highlighting when combined future orders might take us near a holding limit, in the absence of any disposals). Turns out the functionality was already there. They are also a really decent bunch to work with. Thoroughly recommend.

Contract Research Organisation
As an organisation with a large user group, IsoStock allows us to track sources, check leak test status and add or remove users very easily. It facilitates demonstrating compliance during EA inspections and gathering information for internal reports.
