Book
·
OSTI ID:5430055
This report reviews, updates and extends the information on the metabolism of plutonium, neptunium and the trivalent actinides, previously reviewed in ICRP Publication 19, with special reference to the absorption from the gastro-intestinal tract, the retention times in liver and skeleton, the influence of bone re-modelling on the microdistribution within the skeleton and the relation of actinide metabolism to that of other radionuclides. Contents (partial): Introduction; The chemistry of plutonium and related elements; Entry of actinides by inhalation; Entry of actinide elements via the gastro-intestinal tract; The penetration of plutonium and other actinides through the intact skin; Distribution and retention of systemically absorbed actinides; General conclusions.
