Analyses were carried out of various organs of
Mr. Kuboyama 200 days after he had exposed himself
to radiation of the atomic bomb explosion on Bikini
Atoll, March, 1954.

were decidedly higher than those found in the control
samples obtained from individuals who died of other
than the so-called radiation sickness.
Radiation

STRONTIUM-90 IN MAN.
125, 219-225 (Feb. 8, 1957).
Science
The world-wide average strontium-90 content of man
was about 0.12 micromicrocurie per gram of calcium
(/10,000 of the maximum permissible concentration)
in the fall of 1955.
A few values of high as 10
times the average have been obtained.
This vilue
is in accord with the predicted value based on fallout measurements and fractionation through the soilplant-milk-human chain. With the present burden of
strontium-90, this average level should rise to 1 or
2 micromicrocuries of strontium-90 per gram of calcium.
