Baby Tooth Survey Continues(英文)

1971年11月

此内容暂无简体中文译文,以下为英文原文。

The Baby Tooth Survey will continue for another year. A fourteen month extention of the Environmental Protective Agency grant was announced by Dr. Harold L. Rosenthal, who heads the team of scientists who analyze the teeth at the Washington University School of Dentistry.

The Baby Tooth Survey is in its thirteenth year of operation to determine the accumulation in children’s teeth of strontium 90, which is low level radiation, found in bones and teeth of humans.

Since the reinstated grant was less than requested and for a shorter time period, Operation Tooth will continue by depending upon volunteers more than ever. Dr. Rosenthal has indicated that he needs at least three more years in order to collect sufficient data to refine equations relating dietary consumption of strontium 90 in food and milk with that being deposited in teeth and bone of children.
