Research supports potential local supply chain for component in COVID PCR test
University of Melbourne researchers have investigated a method to produce magnetic nanoparticles in Australia for use in COVID-19 PCR tests.
Radiation Monitoring
ANSTO continually monitors environmental gamma radiation from a station located in Engadine NSW. ANSTO uses environmental radiation data to evaluate atmospheric dispersion from its site. This radiation is almost completely natural background radiation.
Koala - Laue Diffractometer
Koala is one of the leading small-molecule crystallography instruments in the world for determining the complex crystal structure of a wide range of chemicals and minerals.
Data Analysis
Below lists some useful programs for data reduction, search matching, analysis and structure visualisation of diffraction data.

Man-made fossil emissions larger than previously believed
ANSTO contributes to major study on global warming by measuring methane and carbon monoxide trapped in ice.
Big boost in jobs and funding for Innovation Precinct
Jobs supported through the nandin Innovation Centre at ANSTO have skyrocketed 360 per cent since opening, with member businesses raising more than $3.9 million in capital, in a major boost for the local Sutherland Shire economy.
Nuclear power technologies
Nuclear power is used as a reliable and clean energy solution in most OECD countries and many other parts of the world. Although it is banned in Australia, a number of government reviews are looking at current prohibitions on nuclear power.
Graduate Profile - Joshua Noiney
Fish farming is increasing globally to provide an affordable source of protein and income security for local communities. Joshua's research project aims to optimise production of tilapia to enhance food and nutritional security in PNG.
Safeguarding the future of Australia's nuclear medicine
The new facility will be built around a product line of ANSTO’s design – a new Technetium-99m generator – that will enable greater process automation than is possible with existing technology, leading to improvements in efficiency, quality and importantly the highest levels of production safety.
Successful Repatriation of Australia's Radioactive Waste
The Australian Government’s nuclear agency, ANSTO, together with NSW Police and multiple state and federal authorities, has completed an operation to repatriate radioactive waste from the UK.
