Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) SERIES TITLE Project Administration Records: Records Relating to the Counting of Human Subjects Using Niobium-92m, Barium-133, and Strontium-85 INCLUSIVE DATES 1988 1990 ARRANGEMENT Alphabetical by subject name VOLUME approximately 0.5 cubic foot DESCRIPTION This series (IRB No. 88 01) contains records of a third validation study where five of the original eight male participants inhaled niobium and of studies where two subjects were injected with Ba133 and Sr85. The files for the niobium study pertain to subjects such as detector geometry, visits by foreign nationals, personal information on individual subjects, biometric data for the subject, and x-ray counts. Types of documents included are copies of the "Experimental Subject's Bill of Rights," signed consent forms, photos, tables, graphs, test results, and memorandums. The five British volunteers were also participants in the first study, so some folders for individual subjects may contain information from both the first and the third validation study. This series also contains subject file information for individual subjects who participate in studies relating to the use of Ba133 and Sr85. Two subjects received an injection of barium, and one of these subjects later received an additional administration of strontium. Some personal and medical information is available for subjects involved in these two studies. This series is interfiled with Project Administration records and records of the other two validation studies. RESTRICTIONS This series contains privacy material. LOCATION OF RECORDS Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Building 253, Room 1719 Berkeley, CA 94720 (Raw data is on magnetic tape; calibration records are stored in the Control Room.) |
