TRANSFER VESSEL FOR USE IN TRANSFERRING PRODUCTS BETWEEN RADIATION CONTAINMENT CHAMBERS

摘要

THIS invention relates to a transfer vessel for use in transferring products between radiation containment chambers, and more particularly but not exclusively, to transfer products from one chamber to another without cross-contamination. The invention also relates to a process of transferring products between radiation containment chambers without cross- contamination. The transfer vessel includes a first enclosure which is closed off by a lid and a second enclosure which is closed off by a displaceable closure, with the displaceable closure being housed in the lid. The first enclosed volume and the second enclosed volume can selectively be accessed by opening the lid and the displaceable closure respectively.
