Actinides are alpha-emitting radioactive elements handled by nuclear industry workers and are part of the NRBC threat (nuclear, radiological, biological, and chemical). Skin contamination represents a major exposure route for these radioelements. Skin decontamination is therefore essential to prevent any dispersion of contamination and systemic absorption through the skin. This work focused the evaluation of skin penetration behavior of two actinides: americium and plutonium, in different forms, in an ex vivo model, pig ear skin. The decontamination efficacy of various products was tested on this model as well as an in vitro model of bovine hide powder. The efficacy of a new DTPA hydrogel formulation was also tested. The localization of in ...
