Uptake of Plutonium-238 by Plants Grown Under Field Condition as Affected by One Year of Weathering and Aging

Book Description
Less 238Pu was concentrated in the seeds than in the vegetative parts in all plant species. Leaves contained more 238Pu than the stem or pods, and the monocots had lower concentrations of 238Pu in their tissues than the dicots. Irrigation of plants affected the uptake of 238Pu, especially on the year-to-year changes in the amount of the element accumulated in the plant parts. Several more years of data must be analyzed to determine if this phenomenon is real. Soil profiles must be studied to determine what configuration changes may occur in the 238Pu in the soil. Other investigators show that soil microbes change the chemical form of plutonium in the soil and the organic complexes that are formed are more available for plant uptake.

The Toxicity of Plutonium, Americium and Curium
Author: J. C. Nenot
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 148318210X
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 238
Book Description
The Toxicity of Plutonium, Americium and Curium provides a biological basis for an assessment of the radiological health problems resulting from human exposure to americium, curium, and plutonium. This book discusses the method of injection of the chelating agent DTPA for removing soluble forms of americium, curium, and plutonium. Organized into 10 chapters, this book begins with an overview of the biological effects in man that are attributed to exposure to actinides. This text then examines the uses of americium and curium in transmission scanning studies in tissues, in smoke detectors, and in neutron sources. Other chapters consider the metabolism or effects of plutonium in humans that can be employed to predict the potential consequences of human exposure. This book discusses as well routes of entry of radioactive materials into the body by inhalation, by ingestion, through cuts, or by absorption through the intact skin. The final chapter deals with the assessment of the radiological health problems resulting from the use of mixed oxide fuels of uranium and plutonium in light water reactors. This book is a valuable resource for scientists.
