title: Uptake and retention of 133Ba and 140Ba-140La in mouse tissues.
abstract: The distribution of barium in the mouse has been determined qualitatively by whole-body autoradiography after i.v. administration of 133BaCl2 solution. The quantitative distribution of 104Ba and 140La has been analyzed after i.p. injections of the two nuclides in equilibrium by measuring the activity in excised organs in a two-channel scintillation counter. Approximate doses to the eyes and different parts of the skeleton have been calculated.
