  DESCRIPTION  The purpose of this proposed experiment was to 
               study the use of technetium-99 to  simulate 
               inhaled plutonium-239 aerosol in the lungs. The 
               series contains information  such as discussions 
               between LLNL and LBL about the project, including 
               the development of protocols for the experiment, a 
               statement that all 15 adult volunteers would  be 
               from LLNL or LBL, and preparation of operating 
               safety procedures that would  incorporate 
               protocols for the experiment. Types of records in 
               the collection include  raw data, correspondence, 
               and memorandums. This experiment was never carried  
               out.
