Notes
  • Significance: Mound’s B “Biology” Building is significant for its operational role in the polonium processing mission of Mound Laboratory during the late 1940s and early 1950s. Radioactive polonium had importance to the nation during that time for its use in nuclear weapon manufacture and atomic energy. During the polonium processing era, B Building served to conduct acute and chronic studies of the effects of radioactive isotopes on animals. These studies were part of a program to insure the safety and good health of Mound Laboratory personnel.
