DETERMINATION OF CAESIUM-137/POTASSIUM RATIOS IN DIET AND IN THE HUMAN BODY BY URINE ANALYSIS
BS>A radiochemical method was developed for the deter2nination of Cs/sup 137/ in urine. The sensitivity of the method makes it particularly useful for the determination of fallout Cs/sup 137/. The Cs/sup 137/ and K contents of 7 urine samples collected in Berkshire in Feb., March, and April, 1961, were determined, and the results are tabulated. The mean ratio determined was 12.1. (P.C.H.)
