Popis: | The 137Cs body burden in three groups of children from the same school is presented (Group I: boys aged 19 years, Group II: boys aged 15 years, Group III: girls aged 15 years). A comparison between the three groups showed that the 137Cs body burden in Group I was twice as high as those in the other two groups, between which there was only a negligible difference. Since the diet was principally the same for all the participants, it is suggested that the 137Cs metabolism changes between the ages of 15 and 19 years. It was impossible in any of the three groups to find a correlation between the daily milk intake and the 137Cs body burden. |
