Very little is known concerning the changes that occur in living tissue following the injection of solutions of an “active deposit’’ of radium emanation. This investigation was undertaken to determine what changes occur in the principal organs of the animal body following such a treatment, and to afford data that might act as a guide in the treatment of certain types of cancer, in which the sol...

A prototype map of radon potentials in Alachua County, Florida is being developed to demonstrate the feasibility of defining geographic criteria for implementing radon-protective building construction standards. Because of regulatory needs and sensitivities, the map is being developed independent of institutional boundaries or of particular present radon limits. I t defines the radon source pot...

Emanation of radon (Rn) from several brands of cat (kitty) litter was measured with a continuous radon monitor. Radon emanating from the cat litters, encapsulated in an airtight container, produced equilibrium concentrations below 1.2 pCi/g. The measured radon flux was below 10 pCi/kg-hr for all the cat litters. Although each of the samples emitted a measurable amount of radon, the emanation is...
