Strontium-90 on the Earth's Surface

Nature, 1968
Estimations of the amount of strontium-90 on the Earth's surface indicate that maximum fallout occurred late in 1966. Of the 13 MCi recorded at the beginning of 1967, 82 per cent of this was in the northern hemisphere.

Determination of strontium 90 in environmental samples by triple quadrupole ICP-MS and its application to Fukushima soil samples.

, 2018
The determination of 90Sr by ICP-MS is capable of providing a high sample throughput compared with radiometric analytical methods. Although the isobaric interference caused by 90Zr ions can be reduced by reaction with oxygen, the high background caused ...

Strontium-90 in Ecuador

Science, 1960
Samples of bone and soil collected in 1958 show highest values for Sr 90 in the tropical region on the east side of the Andes. Lowest values are found in the high central valley, where samples used in estimating world-wide distribution of fallout were collected. If the major fallout deposition occurs in the interior

The hazard of strontium-90

The Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1960
Strontium 90 effective half-life is 2.7 x 10/sup 3/ days. It emits beta rays and is selectively absorbed by bone. Strontium-90 is chemically allied to calcium and it moves with this element through the food chains and the foods which supply calcium to the body also supply strontium.

Strontium-90 and Skeletal Formation

Science, 1957
The potential radiostrontium level to be expected in the skeletons of growing children as a result of environmental contamination was computed. Results are based on available data on the rate of bone remodeling and exchange, the rate of skeletal growth, and the level of /sup 90/Sr in the biosphere.

Strontium-90 and Infant Mortality

Nature, 1969
The recent claim that strontium-90 resulting from tests of nuclear weapons has killed 400,000 children in the United States since 1945 does not stand up to careful analysis.

Management of canine corneal squamous cell carcinoma with lamellar keratectomy and strontium 90 plesiotherapy: 3 cases.

Veterinary Ophthalmology, 2015
PURPOSE To report three cases of canine corneal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) treated with strontium 90 beta radiation as an adjunct to surgical excision. METHODS Corneal SCC was excised with lamellar keratectomy. This was followed by local application

One-year results from clinical practice of epimacular strontium-90 brachytherapy for the treatment of subfoveal choroidal neovascularization secondary to AMD.

Ophthalmic Surgery Lasers and Imaging Retina, 2015
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE To evaluate clinical feasibility, safety, and efficacy of epiretinal strontium-90 brachytherapy in subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) due to age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in eyes unresponsive to repeated anti ...

Use of otolith for detecting strontium-90 in fish from the harbor of Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant.

Environmental Science and Technology, 2015
To clarify the level of contamination with radioactive cesium (radiocesium) discharged from Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP), three fish species caught in the main harbor of FDNPP were subjected to γ-ray analysis.

Strontium-90 Toxicity in Mice

JNCI: Journal of the National Cancer Institute, 1962
S>A single injection of strontium-90 was administered to groups of female mice at 2 dose levels. Survival and the causes of death were studied. The results in shortening of the lifespan and in frequency of bone tumor parallel data previously reported. Analyses of the causes of death showed that in experimental and control mice more than 80% died with ...
