The decay of washed cells and ghosts indicates that they pick up Y90 rather than Sr80. 90 Retention and distribution of Srgo-Y Figure 4 shows the retention by the fish of the injected Sr90-Y90 as a function of time. The upper curve represents the entire fish, and the other curves represent, respectively, the bone, integument, gills, muscle, and visceral organs. Each point is the average of at least two fish, and the samples were counted at secular equilibrium. These results may be compared with those obtained previously by.
