Radiation Dose Estimates and Hazard Evaluations for Inhaled Airborne Radionuclides. Final Report July 1976-July 1984.

摘要

This is the final report for a project whose objective was to conduct confirmatory research on physical chemical characteristics of aerosols produced during manufacture of mixed plutonium and uranium oxide nuclear fuel, to determine the radiation dose distribution in tissues of animals after inhalation exposure to representative aerosols of these materials, and to provide estimates of the relationship of radiation dose and biological response in animals after such inhalation exposure. The report is divided into three chapters which summarize the results of these investigations.
