Particles containing Heavy metals and<br />

internal alpha emitters remain in the<br />

body as chronic sources of exposure<br />

due to body deposition toxicokinetics<br />

Cumulative exposure to both<br />

gaseous and particulate forms of<br />

the toxicants must be considered<br />

Particles may be stored for 20 years or more<br />

in lymph nodes. (alpha emitters become a<br />

source of chronic exposure)<br />

Metals may be stored in bone or other<br />

deposition sites. (Radium, Lead, Strontium)<br />

Strontium may close epiphyseal plates<br />

(growth plates) of a child<br />

Radium and Lead may recirculate to cause<br />

damage to other organs.
