Early faecal excretion of inhaled plutonium.
Special individual monitoring has been performed for suspected cases of inhalation of plutonium at the Tokai Works of the Japan Nuclear Cycle Development Institute (JNC). Some experimental data obtained from this special individual monitoring during the past 20 years are presented and discussed in this paper. Our experience suggests the following conclusions. The daily plutonium excretion rate,...
متن کاملMicrobial mobilization of plutonium and other actinides from contaminated soil.
We examined the dissolution of Pu, U, and Am in contaminated soil from the Nevada Test Site (NTS) due to indigenous microbial activity. Scanning transmission x-ray microscopy (STXM) analysis of the soil showed that Pu was present in its polymeric form and associated with Fe- and Mn- oxides and aluminosilicates. Uranium analysis by x-ray diffraction (μ-XRD) revealed discrete U-containing mineral...
متن کاملExcretion of urocanic acid following oral histidine in heart failure.
et al., 1952). In liver disease or folic acid deficiency, abnormal quantities ofthe metabolites, urocanic acid and formiminoglutamic acid (Figlu), appear in the urine following an oral dose of the amino acid L-histidine (Luhby, Cooperman, and Teller, 1959; Spray and Witts, 1959; Kohn, Mollin, and Rosenbach, 1961; Carter, Schaffner, and Heller, 1960; Bennett and Chanarin, 1962; Merritt et al., 1...
متن کاملUrinary excretion of histamine and methylhistamine after burns.
BACKGROUND The increased vascular permeability seen after burn contribute to morbidity and mortality as it interferes with organ function and the healing process. Large efforts have been made to explore underlying pathophysiological mechanisms that generate increased vascular permeability after burns. Many different substances have been proposed as mediators of which histamine, serotonin and ox...
متن کاملDeveloping a physiologically based approach for modeling plutonium decorporation therapy with DTPA.
PURPOSE To develop a physiologically based compartmental approach for modeling plutonium decorporation therapy with the chelating agent Diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (Ca-DTPA/Zn-DTPA). MATERIALS AND METHODS Model calculations were performed using the software package SAAM II (©The Epsilon Group, Charlottesville, Virginia, USA). The Luciani/Polig compartmental model with age-dependent des...
