Tissue distribution, excretion and effects on genotoxicity of tritium following oral administration to rats

Tritium is an important nuclide that must be monitored for radiation safety management. In this study, HTO was orally administered to rats at the level of 37 kBq (1 μCi) or 370 kBq (10 μCi) to examine tissue distribution and excretion levels. After sacrifice, wet and dry tissue samples were weighed...
