‘he effect of
the dental program on the retention of Sr and Pu in these
teeth samples can be studied.
90sr, 24lam (if present) activity concentration and 99sr autoradiograph
can be obtained from the M.I. samples analyzed for Pu.
Sr teeth results can be compared to corresponding 9°Sr bioassay result
(if urine samples are obtained from people whose teeth are extracted).
Unlike 239pu, 90Sr are easily detected in the M.I. urine samples
