Calculation of retention and excretion of some selected radionuclides after acute intake by inhalation according to new ICRP dose estimation models

For interpretation of the measured data in individual monitoring fur intern al exposure, information to relate the measurement results with the intake of radionuclides is essential. In 1998, the International Commission on Rad iological Protection (ICRP) issued Publication 78 "Individual monitoring fo r internal exposure of workers". This publication presented the monitoring data of retention and excretion calculated for 29 selected radionuclides (1 5 elements). However, there are some more radionuclides which are important from the viewpoint of occupational exposure in nuclear industry, research and medicine. In this paper, eight important radionuclides: P-32, Cr-51, Mn -54, Zn-65, Zr-95; Ba-140, Ce-1.41 and Ce-1.44, were selected and the whole -body content and the daily urinary excretion for them after acute intake b y inhalation were calculated, where the new ICRP human respiratory tract mo del and the new ICRP biokinetic models mere applied.
