ABSTRACT

The results of different bioassays (measurements of ¹³⁷Cs content in the body using whole-body counter and in excreta samples) in the case of ingestion intake of cesium and strontium at workplace are presented. Intake and committed effective dose have been assessed. Coincidence of the dose estimates based on measurements of ¹³⁷Cs content in the body and in urine samples has been demonstrated. It’s concluded that the limit values of the basic standardized parameters were not exceeded.

Key words: cesium-137, ingestion intake, whole-body counter, bioassay, internal doses, basic dose limits
