  • Title: The toxicity of 90Sr, 226Ra and 239Pu.
    Author: Thorne MC, Vennart J.
    Journal: Nature; 1976 Oct 14; 263(5578):555-8. PubMed ID: 1068342.
    Abstract:
    Data now available on the risks of radiation-induced fatal cancer and hereditary disease and radionuclide metabolism suggest that limits on the rates of intake of 90Sr, 226Ra and 239Pu at work, presently recommended by the International Commission on Radiological Protection, might be in need of considerable revision one with another and with the limit for uniform exposure of the whole body.
