Doses from the consumption of Cardiff Bay flounder containing organically bound tritium
Journal of Radiological Protection, 2005ICRP dose coefficients for the ingestion of organically bound tritium (OBT) by adults and children are intended for general application to unspecified forms in diet and may not be applicable to intakes of a specific form of OBT. To obtain information relating to OBT in fish from Cardiff Bay, the retention of tritium in adult rats was determined after ...

Doses and risks from tritiated water and environmental organically bound tritium
Journal of Radiological Protection, 2009This short review provides an explanation of the calculation and use of the ICRP protection quantities, equivalent and effective dose, including the simplifications introduced by using radiation and tissue weighting factors. It discusses the dose coefficients (Sv Bq(-1) intake) provided by ICRP for intakes of tritiated water (HTO) and organically bound

Activation of Organically-Bound Tritium by Tritiated Water in Soil
2019The fate of tritium in the environment is a target of interest in many studies. However reported concentrations of organically bound tritium (OBT) in soil are not well understood. In this study, a supplementary non-biological process of soil OBT activation in the environment was explored.

Organically bound tritium in sediments from the Severn Estuary, UK [PDF]
, 2006 Amersham plc, now GE Healthcare, has discharged both organically bound tritium (OBT) and tritiated water (HTO) into the Severn estuary since 1981. The OBT component of these discharges results in elevated tritium (3H) activities in the sediments and biota of the estuary. A monthly sampling programme, covering February 2000 to May 2004, has provided the

Assessment of organically-bound tritium (OBT) dispersion and accumulation in the environment [PDF]
, 2002 Measurements of tritium (^H) in fish in the Cardiff Bay area have consistently shown levels greater than the surrounding seawater as well as having concentrations significantly higher than those found in fish from other areas of the British Isles.
