Determination of 40K concentration in milk samples consumed in Tehran-Iran and estimation of its annual effective dose
Background: Since 40K is the most important natural radionuclide in the environment, its concentration was measured for all milk and milk powder samples consumed in Tehran-Iran. Milk was chosen, since because it is a reliable indicator of the general population intake of certain radionuclide, and many environmental programs have been applied for its safety. Materials and Methods: Measu...
متن کاملMeasurement of 226Ra, 228Ra, 137Cs and 40K in edible parts of two types of leafy vegetables cultivated in Tehran province-Iran and resultant annual ingestion radiation dose
Background: The sources of radioactivity in the environment have natural, terrestrial and extraterrestrial, and anthropogenic origins. Plants may get radioactive nuclides in two ways: (i) by the deposition of radioactive fallout, (ii) by absorption from the soil. Materials and Methods: The Concentrations of the natural radionuclides (226Ra, 228Ra, 40K) and the artificial radionuclide (...

متن کاملDetermination of Radionuclides Concentration and Average Annual Committed Effective Dose Due to Ingestion for Some Medicinal and Edible Plants from Shazand (Markazi Province), Iran
Introduction Natural and artificial radionuclides are the main sources of human radiation exposure, which enter the food chain from the environment. Radionuclides can affect human health by transferring from soil to plants and entering the human body. In this research study, we aimed to determine the activity concentrations of radionuclides and calculate the average annual committed effective d...
متن کاملConcentration and Annual Effective Dose of Radon in the Neyshabur Turquoise Mine
Background: Radon is one of the most common radioactive substances in underground mines which can enter the lungs and cause diseases. The purpose of this research is to measure the concentration of radon and the annual dose absorbed by miners at Sabz, Moslem, and Kamari caves in Neyshabur turquoise mine. The results are compared with standard permissible limits and can play a significant role i...
