    Carcinogenic Effects in Rats of Exposure to Different Minerals from Metallic Mine Ores, Radon and Radon Daughters

    Combined exposure to radon and mineral dust is very common in some mine environments. It has been suggested that the carcinogenic activity of some inorganic materials might be related to their surface reducing...

    Respiratory Carcinogenesis in Rats after Inhalation of Radioactive Aerosols of Actinides and Lanthanides in Various Physicochemical Forms

    To study the role of the distribution of local tissue irradiation on the toxicity of alpha emitters, groups of 50 to 165 rats were exposed to aerosols of 244Cm(NO3)3, 241Am(NO3)3, 238Pu(NO3)4, 235Pu(NO3)4, 239PuO
