  • Title: [The specificity of the deposition of intratracheally administered plutonium in different skeletal bones with a change in iron homeostasis].
    Author: Rushonik SI, Ivanova NP, Shvydko NS.
    Journal: Radiobiologiia; 1992; 32(2):288-91. PubMed ID: 1598405.
    Abstract:
    A study was made of the distribution of plutonium-239 injected intratracheally within different bones of the skeleton, the iron status in the blood being changed. The iron preparation caused a 2.5-3-fold decrease in the plutonium loading onto cancellous bone tissue that displayed, in ordinary conditions, a higher tropism to the radionuclide than a cortical highly mineralized bone did.
