In the UK the standard source of dosing information is the British National Formulary for Children (BNFC).
During the NRC discussions, I published an article on the concepts of source to dose, showing the central role human exposure has in linking traditional environmental science with the fields of toxicology, epidemiology, and risk assessment (Lioy 1990).
Medical doses now represent the largest source of population dose in the United States.
We present here a particular application area for EPR dosimetry with teeth use as a source of reference dose values for validation/verification of other retrospective dosimetry techniques and existing dose records.
Table 1 presents the chronology of Canadian studies, as well as international studies which included Canadian nuclear workers, and highlights this important change of the source of radiation dose information, which occurred in the late 1990s.
Different waste material serves as a potential source of various dosing substrates.
Insofar as e-cigs (or other nicotine-containing products) are a source of significant doses of nicotine, the pressures for compensatory smoking should decrease.
GliaSite functions as a single spherical source of low-dose rate radiation and the photon energy of I (27 35 keV photons) result in rapid attenuation over short distances via the photoelectric effect, which leads to a steep dose fall-off and a typical prescription depth of 0.5 to 2 cm.
Metabolite identified in biofluids, composition of the source, range of doses administered, number of recipients of the dose, total number of subjects, urinary and plasma pharmacokinetic data and reference information are displayed.
In his pioneer experiments, Otani (1959) tested the effect of source and dose of nitrogen supply at different times before inoculation with rice blast.
These samples were irradiated with a 60Co source at dose of 20 kGy.
