Description/Abstract:

ELEVEN-PAGE ARTICLE "PLUTONIUM DEPOSITION KINETICS IN THE RAT" WRITTEN BY PATRICIA W. DURBIN, MARK W. HOROVITZ, AND ELON R. CLOSE PUBLISHED IN HEALTH PHYSICS JUNE, 1972. A CONVENTIONAL KINETIC MODEL WAS CONSTRUCTED TO DESCRIBE THE TRANSPORT AND DEPOSITION OF INTRAVENOUSLY INJECTED PLUTONIUM IV CITRATE IN THE RAT. A DIGITAL COMPUTER PROGRAM WAS USED TO GENERATE NUMERICAL SOLUTIONS TO THE DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS REPRESENTING THE COMPARTMENT MODEL.
