“…There was variability among dogs, and subcutaneous drainage of plutonium enhanced the clearance of plutonium from the right popliteal lymph node of one dog. These findings are consistent with the clearance of the same reactor-grade high-fired plutonium oxide from the superficial cervical lymph nodes of beagles implanted in the forepaw (BISTLINE BISTLINE, 1973).…”

“…These findings are consistent with the known importance of the superficial cervical lymph nodes in the translocation of plutonium from the front paws of beagles (JOHNSON et al, 1970;BISTLINE et al, 1972;BISTLINE, 1973;GOMEZ et al. 1972;GOMEZ, 1973), and the tracheobronchial lymph nodes in the translocation of plutonium from the lungs of beagles (BAIR, 1970;CLARKE et al, 1964;PARK et al, 1962).…”

“…REGIONAL lymph nodes are major repositories for plutonium in beagles after subcutaneous injections simulating contamination of hand wounds (JOHNSON et al, 1970;WATTERS and LEBEL, 1971;LEBEL and WATTERS, 1972;BISTLINE et al, 1972;BISTLINE, 1973). Plutonium continued to accumulate for 2-4 weeks in the left superficial cervical lymph nodes of dogs after implantation of plutonium into the left forepaw.…”

The translocation kinetics of high-fired plutonium oxide from the popliteal lymph nodes was studied in beagles with 9.2 to 39.445 of plutonium-239 oxide implanted subcutaneously in the left hind paws to simulate accidental contamination of hand wounds. The left hind paw was amputated 4 weeks after implantation to prevent continued deposition of plutonium oxide particles in the left popliteal lymph node. External in situ scintillation data showed slight clearance of plutonium from the popliteal lymph nodes of beagles monitored for 32 weeks. The estimated time for the fraction of plutonium retained at 100 days to be reduced by one-half varied from 290 to 1508 days. Treatment with DTPA did not have a measurable effect on the clearance of high-fired plutonium oxide from popliteal lymph nodes.

“…to 4 x 10-3 for plutonium as Pu02 • In this case, the concentration ratio denominator had units of activity/ml growth medium. In a recent study Schulz et al (1975) (Bistline, 1973;Gomez, 1973;Schallberger, 1974) were approximately the same as those found in the bone tissues. The data presentation of Romney et al• (1970) as dpm/sample made it im- the initial rapid clearance phase after lung deposition is absorbed from the GI in only small amounts, ranging from 5.8 x 10-7 to 1.9 x 10-2 ,.depending on the chemical form of the Pu (Bair, 1974).…”

This will lead to a concomitant increase in handling of plutonium by man and thus increase the risk of accidental human exposure s. Many of the human plutonium exposure s that have already occurred involve wounds (Bistline, 1973). The kinetics of Pu movement from a wound site has been studied here at Colorado…”
