Results are presented of postmortem human tissue sampling and analysis for plutonium of Hanford Site workers, residents of the nearby Tri-Cities, and individuals residing farther away from the Hanford Site for the period 1970-1975. The majority of Hanford Site workers and nearby residents coming to autopsy had tissue concentrations of plutonium no larger than those who lived farther away from Hanford and whose likely source of plutonium was limited to nuclear weapons testing fallout. Thus, Hanford operations up to that time apparently had made no significant addition to plutonium in those individuals sampled postmortem.
本文呈现了1970年至1975年期间对汉福德 Site 工人、附近三城地区居民以及居住在离汉福德 Site 更远地区的个人进行的钚的尸检人体组织采样和分析结果。前来尸检的大多数汉福德 Site 工人和附近居民的钚组织浓度不高于居住在离汉福德更远地区的人，而后者的钚可能来源仅限于核武器试验沉降物。因此，截至当时的汉福德运营活动显然并未给那些死后采样的个体体内的钚含量带来显著增加。
