Study of retention and absorption of radioactive dust in the respiratory tract
- 1. Wojskowy Inst. Higieny i Epidemiologii, Warsaw (Poland)
Description
The study of deposition and clearance by the lungs of silicon dust labelled with 24Na is described. The animals were contaminated by the ''nose only'' method using PIANO-4 unit. The silicon dust is mainly deposited in the nasal cavities and passes through the throat to the gastrointestinal tract. The biological dust elimination time was 30 ± 4.4 h, which means that the silicon dust can be classified to the group of minimal retention. 18 refs., 4 figs. (author)
