Egypt to begin selling radioactive isotopes
SARA ALLAM AMANY SABER Published in Youm7 on 26 - 10 - 2011

The Atomic Energy Commission in Egypt received offers from Canada and South Africa to purchase radioactive isotopes after the closing of the plant in Holland, which was the main plant delivering isotopes to North America and EU countries, sources reported.
The new plant includes various isotopes that can help heal many illnesses, including tumors. The plant produces Lloyd – both 125 and 131 – and chromium 51, among others used for medical and industrial purposes.
The Egyptian Ministry of Finance gave 70 million EGP (U.S. $11.73 million) to the plant.
The source confirmed that selling radioactive isotopes will give the Egyptian budget 17 million EGP (U.S. $2.85 million) monthly.
The Atomic Energy Commission began operating the plant in cooperation with Argentinean company experts in October 2011.
