Penetration of [211At]NaAt solution in pieces of the rubber gloves. a Photographs of pieces of filter papers covered by a piece of latex or nitrile glove. A droplet containing [211At]NaAt was applied to each piece of the rubber glove. b Schemes of the photographs. c, d The autoradiograms of pieces of filter papers placed under the pieces of the rubber gloves. High activity was detected in the filter paper placed under the latex glove. Only slight activity was detected in the paper under the nitrile glove.
