title: The suitability of 160Tb as a PAC probe for studies of biomolecules.
abstract: The gamma-ray perturbed angular correlation (PAC) studies were made with 160Tb as a probe in MES (2[N-morpholino]-ethane sulphonic acid) solutions of various concentrations. The measurements indicate no influence of concentration of the environment on its interaction with Tb3+ ion and as such reveal the fact that 160Tb is not a good probe for PAC studies.
