9. ALI:
4mCi (1 x 107 Bq) by inhalation, clearance in weeks.
4mCi (1 x 107 Bq) by ingestion.
10. Shielding: inch (1.2 cm) of plexiglass (that will shield
the beta particles and minimize the production of
bremsstrahlung).
P-32 betas will travel:
19 feet in air.
0.8 cm in tissue.
0.7 cm in plexiglass.
0.3 cm in aluminum.
11. Special considerations:

Do not work over an open container, the eyes can
receive a substantial beta dose.
Safety glasses can provide eye protection.
