Abstract
APDAS (Applied Physics Division Analytical Services) is a service supplied by the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation, a government-funded body committed to building and maintaining strong links with industry by providing scientific and technical goods and services wherever possible. Because of its background and achievements in high-tech research, APDAS can provide solutions to many of the problems that arise in Australian industries. APDAS offers design, calibration and medical services which are not available elsewhere in Australia. These include: a custom design service for the development of analogue electronic systems, maintenance of absorbed dose standards, a calibration service for ion chambers, a fast and accurate method for measuring whole body protein. This medical service is important for studies of patients with wasting disease (e.g. cystic fibrosis and renal dysfunction). It also can be used for on-line measurement of foodstuffs, etc.
