Removal of intratracheally intubated 253Es(NO3)3 from rats by inhaled or injected Ca- or Zn-DTPA
Creators
Description
Twenty-seven days after the intratracheal instillation of 253Es(NO3)3 to rats, Ca-DTPA, Zn-DTPA, or mixtures of the two, were given by inhalation or intraperitoneal injection for a series of nine treatments spaced over 3 weeks. The cation had no effect on treatment effectiveness but administration by injection may give better removal of Es from the liver than does inhalation. High doses of the chelating agent remove more Es, though the magnitude of this effect decreases with the number of treatments. Increased retention of Es was observed in the lungs of most treated rats
