Abstract
Radioactive isotopes of iodine are Produced during nuclear fission in reactors and in weapons tests and to a limited extent in nature. Because of its extremely long half-life (1.6 x 10/sup 7/ yr) 1291 has the potential for accumulation in the environment from longterm, chronic releases from nuclear facilities. Possible problems associated with such an accumulation, including transfer of the /sup 129/I through the biosphere and resultant radiation doses to man and other organisms are discussed.
