Water Isotope Network
Currently ANSTO partners with the Australian Bureau of Meteorology to operate the Australian GNIP stations with samples analysed at ANSTO’s Environmental Isotope Laboratories in Sydney.
Scholarship applications open
Applications are now being accepted for the Industry foundations Scholarship.
Advanced reactors
Advanced nuclear reactors, such as molten salt-based reactors and very high-temperature reactors provide a viable option within a future mix of energy systems.
Development of radiotracers
The Biosciences team undertakes the radiolabelling of chemical, biochemical. biological or material vector for the purpose of radiotracing in living systems.
Development of radioisotopes
Research and development activity explores new, boutique radioisotopes, including positron, gamma and beta/gamma emitter. The aim is to provide material for the next generation of diagnostic and therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals
Radiation biology
The measurement and manipulation of radiation and radioactive materials within biological systems. Capabilities include access to a range of radioisotopes, gamma/X-ray sources and a selection of X-ray beams, ion beams and neutron beams for irradiation.
Preclinical imaging
Expertise in the use of PET and SPECT imaging techniques to understand biological processes at the cellular and molecular level. The techniques ae also used to study disease processes and monitor the effects of new therapies
Radiotracers
ANSTO provides a range of radiotracers for pre-clinical and clinical research using the OPAL multipurpose reactor. Users can access more than 300 known radiotracers. If a starting material is provided, new and non-commercial radiotracers can be produced.
Radiotracer characterisation and evaluation
Biosciences staff support research for radiopharmaceutical translation, radiation biology and radiotracer studies. New radiotracers can be fully characterised and assessed by a range of evaluation techniques, including in vitro and in vivo studies.
Radiotracer studies
The use of radioisotopes, radiolabeled molecules and radioactive particles in conjunction with a range of quantitative imaging spectroscopy and radiation counting methods.
Helium 3 Polariser
This state-of-the-art metastable-exchange optical-pumping helium-3 polarising system enables polarisation-analysis experiments on five of our existing instruments.
Radioisotopes
Using the OPAL multipurpose reactor,, ANSTO can provide a diverse suite of radioisotopes for research and applications

Space
ANSTO has a range of capabilities and expertise to support aerospace and space research.
Emu - High-Resolution Backscattering Spectrometer
Theinstrument is typically used to study diffusing water molecules or yet larger molecules like polymers or biological molecules. In addition, Emu can reveal quantum-mechanical tunnelling.
X-ray absorption spectroscopy
X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is a versatile tool for chemistry, biology, and materials science. By probing how x rays are absorbed from core electrons of atoms in a sample, the technique can reveal the local structure around selected atoms.
