| Popis: | Occupational contamination is a potential health risk associated with plutonium inhalation. DTPA remains the chelating drug of choice to decorporate plutonium. In this study, plutonium was found to be more effectively removed from lungs by a single inhalation of nebulized DTPA solution at only 1.1 µmol.kg |
