STRONTIUM STUDIES IN BEAGLES
Previous skeletal irradiation from bone-deposited radionuclides does not seem to influence the metabolism of a Sr/sup 85/ tracer in beagles under the conditions, dose rates, and times studied. Confinement immediately after the injection of a Sr/sup 85/ tracer reduces Its retention. As the age of the beagles increases from 6 months to 10 years, their retentlon of a Sr/sup 85/ tracer decreases. The fact that strontium retention in beagles is less than radium retention was verified in a Sr/sup 85/-Ra/sup 226/ double-tracer study. (auth)
