OverviewThis is measured in terms of half-life -the time required for one-half of the original substance to decay-which ranges from days to thousands of years for the bomb-produced radionuclides of principal interest. (See Nuclear Half-Life note.) Another factor which is critical in determining the hazard of radionuclides is the chemistry of the atoms. This determines whether they will be taken up by the body through respiration or the food cycle.
