A Gigabecquerel (GBq) is a unit of radioactivity in the International System of Units (SI), representing one billion decays per second. Named after Henri Becquerel, the discoverer of radioactivity, this unit measures the rate at which radioactive material decays. It is extensively used in various scientific fields, especially in nuclear medicine and radiopharmaceuticals, to quantify the activity of a source and ensure precise measurements. The Gigabecquerel offers a standardized way to describe radioactivity, making it integral to research and applications involving radioactive substances.
Definition of MicrocurieA Microcurie (µCi) is a unit of radioactivity used to measure the decay rate of radioactive elements. It represents one-millionth of a Curie, which was initially defined based on the decay rate of radium. The Microcurie quantifies the activity of a radioactive source, particularly in medical and industrial applications, ensuring accurate dosages and safety levels. By providing a manageable scale for small sources, it remains a crucial measurement for understanding radioactivity in various scientific, medical, and technological contexts, allowing for precise calculations in research and practical applications.
| Gigabecquerel (GBq) | Microcurie (µCi) |
|---|---|
| 0.001 GBq | 27 µCi |
| 0.01 GBq | 270 µCi |
| 0.1 GBq | 2700 µCi |
| 1 GBq | 27000 µCi |
| 5 GBq | 135000 µCi |
| 10 GBq | 270000 µCi |
| 50 GBq | 1350000 µCi |
| 100 GBq | 2700000 µCi |
| 500 GBq | 13500000 µCi |
| 1000 GBq | 27000000 µCi |
1 GBq = 27000 µCi
