After oral application of 100 ng of 26A1 in 100 mu g of Al as AlCl3 to two volunteers, 26A1 concentrations in blood serum and in unne were measured with accelerator mass spectrometry. Altogether 44 samples were measured in a time period of 23 days after application of 26A1. The measured data were described by an open four-compartment model. Aluminum resorption factors and rate constants for resorption, elimination and exchange between the compartments were obtained. The deduced resorption factors are in the range of 10^-3.
