DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY LABORATORY ACCREDITATION PROGRAM

Accreditation of radiation protection programs at DOE sites is required by United States public law 10 CFR 835

The DOELAP program tests ability of sites to accurately measure and quantify radiation dose to workers. RESL has been the DOELAP performance testing laboratory since 1988

DOELAP Features

Whole Body and Extremity Dosimetry - Thermoluminescent Dosimeters (TLDS), Optically Stimulated Luminescence Dosimeter (OSLs), CR-39 Foils (Allyl diglycol carbonate)    

Direct and Indirect Radiobioassay - Wholebody, Lung, and Thyroid Phantoms. Also Urine and Fecal samples
