List	Version	Source flow	Name there	Why this flow
bafu	2026-v1	15e1d599-5ff9-5ce5-9d9c-3c047b149526	Technetium-99m	This substance answers to the name the row carries; no flow of this substance sat in that compartment, so this one was created for the row.
bafu	2026-v1	8a7cee4c-e5d8-5536-a375-f6328bdf93ae	Technetium-99m	This substance answers to the name the row carries; both name the same compartment.
