calculated in the original rerort (7vo-140).
In adopting this approach,
we are following the recommendations of the ICRP (ICRP-11) and the arrroach
of Spiers used by UNGCEAR (22),
The following text considers the information available for estimating
the doses to the fetus, the newborn, and children relative to adults, and

also the dietary changes which are assumed for children.

This ratio has teen observed directly and can also be calculated from
data which indicate

that the average OR bosdy/ diet for adults is 0.25;~
when this is combined with a further discrimination of approximately a
factor of 2 across the placental or rmarrary membrane, the range of values
of O.1 to 0.16 for milk or fetus is cdtained.
