الوصف(ATM:PCE:MED:THAI*). MEDICAL RESEARCH PROGRAMS IN THAILAND AIDED BY IAEA. UN 62694 - Bangkok, 1959. Thai medical research teams have been working in Bangkok, under the guidance. of an International Atomic Energy Agency expert, to establish procedures in. the use of radioisotopes and radioactive tracer techniques. The request for. an expert was initiated by the Thai Atomic Energy Commission for Peace through. the UN Technical Assistance Board to the IAEA. This photograph shows radioactive meat being fed to a snake by technicians of. the Pasteur Institute. This is part of a pilot experiment in which the radio-. activity count of extracted snake venom will later be checked. This snake is. kept at the institute for work on the production of anti-venom serums. Radio-. active tracers have proved very valuable in determining both structure and. metabolism of biologically important substances such as venoms, drugs, hormones, etc. Please credit: UNITED NATIONS AF/gf
