Nordion reposted this
Time is Running out! Register today for this exciting webinar featuring Richard Wiens industry expert from Nordion! Richard will provide details on both the global supply chain for Cobalt-60 and the sustainability of gamma as a sterilization modality. Gamma sterilization has been the predominant radiation sterilization modality for decades and accounts for more than 30% of all single-use medical device sterilization globally. In recent years, Cobalt-60 suppliers such as Nordion have made substantial investments in new reactor capacity and production technology, while extending the lives of reactors so that they will continue to operate for decades to come. ➡ As the supply of Cobalt-60 continues to grow, it has also been recognized that gamma, with its low production and operating carbon footprint, will provide a sustainable method of sterilization for the long term. ➡ Sterigenics and its sister business Nordion are proud to present this LIVE WEBINAR opportunity! Register Today! https://lnkd.in/g8Xdzyyr

Congrats to the Bruce B team and the Nordion employees who made this happen. Your hard work makes a difference to healthcare in Canada and around the world!
Congratulations to the dedicated Bruce Power and Nordion workers who have successfully completed the 2024 Cobalt Harvest at Bruce B. Thanks to their work, large volumes of Cobalt-60 will be exported from Ontario around the World to sterilize medical equipment keeping our hospitals clean and safe. They also successfully harvested a unique type of Cobalt-60 that is used in non-invasive cancer treatments. Immensely proud of this team who completed this work safely, effectively and with a high standard of care. This is 'Made in Ontario' at its best. To recognize all those involved in achieving this milestone the following quote from Stephen Lecce is a recognition of your hard work and leadership: “Nuclear energy isn’t just providing the reliable, affordable and clean power Ontario families and businesses need – it’s also the source of life-saving, cancer-fighting medical isotopes used around the world. Premier Ford and our government are proud to be leading the largest expansion of nuclear energy in Canada, which is positioning Ontario as the world’s leading supplier of medical isotopes.” ” -Hon. Stephen Lecce, Ontario Minister of Energy and Electrification. While they are always the first to recognize others, I would like to thank the operations leadership team at Bruce B including Adrian London, Rory McDougall P. Eng., Mike O'Dowd, Ben Moore, Jeff Cremasco and the Isotope Team including Jennifer Edey, Chad MacLean, Peter A. McDermid, Bryce Hoover, Jenny Boyadjian. Thanks for your leadership!

For almost 40 years, our partners at Bruce Power have been reliably producing Cobalt-60 for Nordion, helping us provide a reliable, long-term supply of this important isotope to meet growing demand. Check out this slide show on how they harvest Cobalt-60! #SafeguardingGlobalHealth
Ever wonder how Bruce Power's reactors produce #medicalisotopes? Learn about the process of harvesting #cobalt-60, a powerful isotope that plays a crucial role in treating #cancer and sterilizing medical equipment! #nuclearmedicine #poweringhope

Nordion is a proud pioneer of Cobalt-60 teletherapy technology, and continues to have a positive impact on global healthcare as the leading provider of Cobalt-60 sources for innovative Stereotactic Radiosurgery devices used to treat brain and breast cancers.
#ThrowbackThursday Historically, Canada has been a major contributor to the research, production, and innovation of isotope technologies. In 1988, a postage stamp was made to commemorate the pioneering development of External Beam Radiation Therapy using cobalt-60. Canada's AECL NRU research reactor produced this valuable Co-60, essential for medical equipment.
