Abstract
Following a continuous intake of tritium (T) by laying hens' over a 55 day period, an increase of ÐТРconcentration both in eggs and meat was observed over the first 2 weeks for intakes via inhalation and ingestion of water and grass meal. After this time, equilibrium of the T in these products occurred. It was found that when the intake of HTO is from water, air and grass meal, the ratio of its activity concentration in muscular tissue to that in eggs does not exceed 1, 4, and 6 respectively. The ratio of ÐBТ concentration to that of ÐТРin the meat of hens (ÐBТ/HTO) when intakes were from water, air and grass meal were 0.08, 0.09 and 0.7, respectively.
