Looking for help

[scaife]

I am enrolled in a Radiation Safety Course in Canada, and we are currently doing Radiological and Biological half-life calculations where these combine for the effective half-life received from an intake.  While the formula is pretty straight forward, I am finding it difficult to find the Biological half-life listed for many nuclides.

Would anyone know of a chart with this information on it?

I appreciate any response.

A quick google for biological half life led to this...

http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/Hbase/nuclear/biohalf.html

that's a start - try and get a copy of the Rad HEalth Handbook - it may have more data in it.

Good luck, and keep studyin...

Thank you kindly HouseDad, I did have a link to this site but was thinking their might be something else available out there as well.
