A Life-course screening-factor framework for radionuclides in drinking water: identifying when adult-based screening is conservative, representative, or non-conservative

Alaaddin Alnajjar, M. Hawwari

Short summary

A new life-course screening-factor framework shows that adult-based radionuclide screening in drinking water is not uniformly conservative, with significant underestimations for Ra-224 (peak infant dose R peak ≈ 15.8) and Ra-228 (lifetime average R life ≈ 2.04).
