[Modification of 239Pu metabolism in the blood in various methods of iron preparation administration in the body].
A study was made of the intravenous, intraperitoneal and oral routes of iron administration. It was shown that the oral route of the entry of appropriate amounts of iron in the body made it possible to saturate the transferrin spare capacity and hence to influence 239Pu metabolism in the blood. The results obtained can be employed for improving indirect dosimetry methods of 239Pu in the body using chelates.
