Abstract
AbstractAt Los Alamos National Laboratory, a unique sample management robotic system has been developed that automates plutonium metal acid dissolutions, the aliquoting of resulting solutions to be analyzed using several analytical chemistry methods, and automates the barcode labeling of the solution containment vial providing positive solution identification. This system is based upon a commercial laboratory robot from Zymark, Inc. that has been enhanced by the addition of custom robotic workstations engineered and fabricated at our facility. This system will significantly reduce personnel radiation exposure and eliminate the redundancy of each analytical area producing separate dissolved plutonium solutions, which are used in chemical analyses.
