[Effect of the physico-chemical form and storage time of ferriferrocyanides on the sorption of cesium-137 in the digestive tract].

In consequence of the test of Ferriferrocyanide efficiency under the intoxication of white rats by 137Cs the dependence of its sorption effect on the chemical form, production process and the degree of dispersion of the preparation is demonstrated. Maximum efficiency has been determined in Ferriferrocyanides when their degree of dispersion is 0.02-0.03 mm. Antidote qualities of the preparations can be preserved for 15 years.

Absorption↗

[Percutaneous resorption of cesium-137 and strontium-89 in alkali solutions and inactivation of the burned surface].

Experiments on white rats studied percutaneous resorption of 137Cs and 89Sr during their skin application in the form of 10 per cent and 40 per cent solutions of NaOH. The study also involved deactivation of the contaminated skin by means of traditional means of first aid recommended for alkali burn and the application of 5 per cent solution of boric acid with the addition of some detergent or 10 per cent solution of sodium hexametaphosphate. The dependence of deactivation efficacy on the time of beginning sanitary treatment, decontamination procedure and alkali concentration was established.

[Brief intracavitary radiation (137 cesium) of the prostatic site in localized cancer of the prostate: preliminary results after 9 years].

Incidental detection of an adenocarcinoma's microscopic focus inside a piece of adenoma or TURP-chips is not rare. Generally, these hidden or "latent" carcinomas without any clinical event, are staged T0 (UICC) or stage A (Whitmore). In reviews, we can find justification of two contrasting attitudes: radical prostatectomy or therapeutic abstention. For the last nine years, we have proposed a third method: endocavitary curietherapy by 137 Cs of prostatic lodge, whose first results, in terms of morbidity and mortality, are discussed.

[One year after Chernobyl--radioactive cesium in breast milk].

Radioactivity in human breast milk was determined in 32 women in February and March 1987 by means of a Germanium detector. At this time radioactivity increased again by feeding the hay to the cattle harvested in the weeks following the disaster of Chernobyl. 8 (25%) of the values were above 0.3 nCi/l for babies milk recommended by the local authorities.
