After oral application of 100 ng of Al-26 in 100 mug of Al as AlCl3 to
two volunteers, Al-26 concentrations in blood serum and in urine were
measured with accelerator mass spectrometry. Altogether 44 samples we
re measured in a time period of 23 days after application of Al-26. Th
e measured data were described by an open four-compartment model. Alum
inum resorption factors and rate constants for resorption, elimination
and exchange between the compartments were obtained. The deduced reso
rption factors are in the range of 10(-3).
