The International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) is updating its biokinetic models in a series of reports titled Occupational Intakes of Radionuclides (OIR series). This paper provides an overview of biokinetic data for the group IVB elements hafnium (Hf) and titanium (Ti), compares these data with findings for the more extensively studied Group IVB element zirconium (Zr), and proposes biokinetic models for systemic Hf and Ti for use in the OIR series. A biokinetic model for systemic Zr recently adopted by the ICRP is proposed for application to Hf in view of the nearly identical chemical and physical properties of these two elements, their closely similar behavior in the environment, and their nearly identical biokinetic properties suggested by available comparative data. Finaly, the model structure applied to Zr and Hf is also applied to Ti, but a separate set of transfer coefficients is proposed for Ti.
