31. During preparation of RaLa volatile fission products were released. 32. After production, the fermium must be separated from other actinides and from lanthanide fission products . 33. It was assumed to be present in the environment wherever fission product radiation was detected. 34. Cesium-137, a radioactive isotope, is a fission product used in cancer research and radiation therapy. 35. It is one of only 7 long-lived fission products . 36. Discharges from nuclear plants within the nuclear fuel cycle introduce fission products to the environment. 37. Chernobylite is highly radioactive due to its high uranium content and contamination by fission products . 38. Most fission products emit both gamma and beta radiation. 39. Only unusable fission products would be removed and stored. 40. The physical behavior of the fission products is markedly different from that of the transuranics.
