Literature study on the physiology of cobalt

Creators

Description

This literature study analyses the metabolism of cobalt in the human body, focussing on its resorption and the influence of various parameters like its chemical form, antagonisms, etc. on the level of resorption rate. The value currently recommended by ICRP for resorption rates (f1 factor) of 0,3 or 0,05 for man is examined for its confirmation or non-confirmation in literature. (orig./MG)

Abstract (German)

In der vorliegenden Literaturstudie wird der Stoffwechsel von Kobalt im menschlichen Koerper analysiert. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei die Resorption und der Einfluss verschiedener Parameter, wie die chemische Form, Antagonismen usw. auf die Hoehe der Resorptionsrate. Es wird geprueft, inwieweit der derzeit von der ICRP empfohlene Wert fuer Resorptionsraten (f1-Faktor) von 0,3 bwz. 0,05 fuer den Menschen in der Literatur abgesichert ist. (orig./MG)
