beryllium salts

["Reif, Ronald H." <rreif@doeal.gov>]

To Various RADSAFERs-

Thanks for the feedback on beryllium salts.  The overall conclusion is
that beryllium salts are not readily absorbed through the skin and
inhalation is considered the primary intake route of concern for a
systemic uptake.

Best regards,
Ron
