Biological half-life of cesium in muscular tissue of cattle efficiency of cesium-binding substances
Description
The biological half life of Cs in the muscular tissue of cattle has been determined by measurements of the external radiation. The measured retention curves exhibit an exponential decay with a half-life of about 30 days. Through the administration of Cs-binding agents, as bentonite and ammonium-ferric-hexacyanoferrate no appreciable expedited excretion of the earlier incorporated Cs could be achieved
