In March 1987 the International Commission on Radiological
Protection established a Task Group of Committee 2 "to evaluate
dose per unit intake for members of the public". In this, the
second of two reports given by the Task Group, ingestion dose
coefficients are given for isotopes of sulphur, cobalt, nickel,
zinc, molybdenum, technetium, silver, tellurium and polonium using
the new tissue weighting factors (wT) given by the Commission in
its 1990 Recommendations. Revised ingestion dose coefficients are
also included for the radioisotopes given in Part 1 using the new
wT values. In addition, ingestion dose coefficients are given for
further radioisotopes. A generic model for the biokinetics of lead
and the alkaline earths strontium, barium and radium has been
introduced for calculating ingestion dose coefficients for
radioisotopes of these elements. This model has been applied to the
recalculation of the ingestion dose coefficients for Sr-90, the
only strontium isotope considered in Part 1. The ICRP has now given
new wT values for the urinary bladder and colon, and new
information has become available on the biokinetics of plutonium,
americium and neptunium in humans. As a result the Task Group
considered it appropriate to revise the biokinetic models for these
elements given in Part 1.
