Biochemical comparison between radon effects and thermal effects on humans in radon hot spring therapy.
The radioactive and thermal effects of radon hot spring were biochemically compared under a sauna room or hot spring conditions with a similar chemical component, using the parameters that are closely involved in the clinic for radon therapy. The results showed that the radon and thermal therapy enhanced the antioxidation functions, such as the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catal...
متن کاملRadon concentration in thermal water as an indicator of seismic activity.
Radon concentration in thermal springs at Hotavlje and Bled has been measured from October 2005 to June 2008 and from October 2005 to September 2007, respectively. At both locations several anomalies in radon concentration were observed, that might have been caused by seismic events. In this study all earthquakes with ratio (D/R) between strain radius (D) and distance to the epicenter (R) great...
متن کاملDose assessment and measurement of radon concentration in water supplies of Borujerd County in Iran
Background: Radon as a potential risk of radiation exposure is a natural radioactive element that can emit from rocks and soils. Due to solubility in water, it can be inhaled or consumed by the public. The purpose of this study was carrying out measurement and evaluation of radon concentration in samples of drinking water which are collected from water supplies of Borujerd. Materials and Method...
متن کاملAlpha activity in Indian thermal springs
ABSTRACT Background: and soils with which it comes in contact. There is dual exposure from radon in water i.e. due toinhalation of the radon released from the water into the ambient air and through ingestion whenwater is used for drinking. As radon contaminated water adversely affects the health, it istherefore fundamental from health and hygiene point of view to measure radium concentrationand...
متن کاملRadon Concentration in the Drinking Water of Aliabad Katoul, Iran
BACKGROUND According to the world health organization, radon is a leading cause of cancer in various internal organs and should be regarded with concern. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to evaluate the concentration of soluble radon in the drinking water of the city of Aliabad Katoul, Iran. MATERIALS AND METHODS The radon concentration was measured by using a radon meter, SARAD(TM) mode...
