  • Title: [Decrease in internal irradiation dose from cesium radionuclides by using ferrocin (Prussian blue)].
    Author: Korzun VN.
    Journal: Med Radiol (Mosk); 1991; 36(5):23-7. PubMed ID: 2034101.
    Abstract:
    The Chernobyl accident gave rise to a problem of development and testing of a method to control the alimentary intake of radioactive Cs and to reduce an internal irradiation dose by adding ferrocin in some food components. Some clinico-experimental investigations have shown that the use of ferrocin-containing foodstuffs in populated areas of strict radiation control will permit a considerable reduction of the body level of radioactive Cs, thus decreasing an internal irradiation dose and will return the population of these areas to their normal way of life.
