*Based on alpha disintegration rate of Th-232, Th-230 and
						their daughter products.
**Based on alpha disintegration rate of U-238, U-234 and
						U-235.
NOTE: For purposes of Rules 224 to 231, where there is
						involved a combination of nuclides in known amounts, the limit for the
						combination should be derived as follows: Determine, for each nuclide in the
						combination, the ratio between the quantity present in the combination and the
						limit otherwise established for the specific nuclide when not in combination.
						The sum of such ratios for all the nuclides in the combination may not exceed
						"1" (i.e., "unity").
