Metabolic balances of $sup 210$Pb and $sup 210$Po in unexposed men

Description: From 3rd international congress of the International Radiation Protection Association meeting; Washington, District of Columbia, USA (9 Sep 1973). The metabolic balances of naturally occurring /sup 210/Pb and its decay product /sup 210/Po were measured in each of 12 men maintained on a metabolic ward. These nuclides were determined in urine and feces from each subject collected for one month or more. Representative diets, drinking water, and atmospheric levels in the ward were also sampled. The… more

Tabulation of dose equivalent per microcurie-day for source and target organs of an adult for various radionuclides

Description: Data are tabulated on the radiation dose equivalent per microcurie-day for source and target organs of a human adult for 100 radionuclides. These are listed at the end of the volume. Included are several radionuclides where the parent has a daughter radionuclide of physical half-life less than five minutes. In such cases separate S tables are given for the parent and for the daughter as well as a composite table which contains S values for the parent plus S values for the daughter weighted acco… more

Excretion rate and retention of plutonium 10,000 days after acquisition

Description: Three persons who had been injected with known amounts of plutonium in 1945 to 1947, were hospitalized on a metabolic ward in 1973. All excreta were collected for at least eight days and the samples were analyzed for plutonium. For the two subjects who had been injected intravenously with tetravalent $sup 239$Pu as the citrate, the urinary excretion rates were 7.6 and 4.7 pCi/day at approximately 10$sup 4$ days after injection; these rates corresponded to 2.52 x 10$sup -3$ percent of the inject… more
