Determination 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 کاملNatural radioactivity levels of some medicinal plants commonly used in Ghana
Natural radioactivity levels in some selected medicinal plants commonly used in Ghana from the Centre for Scientific Research into Plant Medicine were investigated to determine the activity concentration and the annual committed effective dose due to naturally occurring radionuclides of (238)U, (232)Th and (40)K. The activity concentration was determined using gamma-ray spectrometry. The result...
متن کاملNatural Gamma Radiation and Effective Annual Dose in Hot Springs in South Khorasan Province, Iran
Background and purpose: Background radiation exists naturally in the environment and human has been always exposed to it. These rays can affect living creatures and cause chromosomal damage, and genetic and somatic diseases. Hot water springs are a major source of background radiation. This study aimed at investigating the absorbed dose of environmental gamma and determining the annual effecti...
