摘要
A new, orally administered, partially lipophilic polyaminocarboxylic acid chelator was tested for its ability to remove incorporated Pu-239 deposits in rats. Animals were injected with Pu-239-citrate and 14 d later were treated for an additional 10 d with docosyl-triethylenetetraminepentaacetic acid (C22TT) added to the diet. There were significant reductions in the Pu-239 content of selected organs in the chelated animals compared with controls. These results suggest that this class of chelators should be studied further for their ability to remove plutonium deposits from the body when given orally.
