Abstract
The importance of aerosol inhalation studies lies in the fact that the internal contamination of the human with radionuclides results mostly from inhalation exposure. We studied the process of deposition, respiratory clearance and translocation of the inhaled [8 5 Sr]Cl2 aerosol in rats using defined particle size distribution of the aerosol, and measured spirometric functions of the exposed animals. The experimental results of the deposition were compared with theoretical values of the mathematical model.
