Study of 137Cs transfer to the rat offspring with breast milk and a modifying effect of ferrocene on this process

: 137Cs transfer to the lactating rats' offspring has been investigated following daily administration of the radionuclide to the females. Certain patterns have been established for 137Cs accumulation dynamics in the female rats and their progeny during 30 days of suckling. Radiocaesium accumulation multiplicity in both female rats and offspring, as well as absorbed dose formation and a modifying effect of ferrocinum on these processes have been studied.
