Abstract

Ingested plastic scintillator spheres are shown to be a useful tool for investigating intracellular transport of material labelled by a weak beta emitter. It is found that-by numerically solving a linear integral equation with known kernel-the time evolution of the intracellular emitter density profile in the vicinity of the cell membrane is determinable from easily obtained experimental data. Applications to special biological systems are noted.
