Accumulation of Radioactive Cesium Released from Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in Terrestrial Cyanobacteria Nostoc commune
The Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident released large amounts of radioactive substances into the environment and contaminated the soil of Tohoku and Kanto districts in Japan. Removal of radioactive material from the environment is an urgent problem, and soil purification using plants is being considered. In this study, we investigated the ability of 12 seed plant species and a cyano...
متن کاملInternal structure of cesium-bearing radioactive microparticles released from Fukushima nuclear power plant
Microparticles containing substantial amounts of radiocesium collected from the ground in Fukushima were investigated mainly by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray microanalysis with scanning TEM (STEM). Particles of around 2 μm in diameter are basically silicate glass containing Fe and Zn as transition metals, Cs, Rb and K as alkali ions, and Sn as substantial elements. These elem...
متن کاملFirst successful isolation of radioactive particles from soil near the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant
The Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (F1NPP) accident in 2011 released radionuclides into the atmosphere in both aerosol and gaseous form. Subsequent studies of contamination in the environment have focused on the bulk radioactivity in samples. Comparatively little is known about the relative contribution and patterns of soluble versus particulate deposition of the radionuclides. We invest...
متن کاملStandardization of Radioactive Sources
INTRODUCTION Primary standards of radioactivity are in some ways, analogous to fixed points in the temperature scale in that each can be used for comparison with "unknowns" not too far removed from the standard. Over a thousand radioactive species are known to exist, but only a comparatively few satisfy such basic requirements for primary standards as: known decay scheme; appropriate half life ...
متن کاملRadioactive iodine and radioactive cesium: two important radio-hazard elements in post nuclear power plant crisis
The present nuclear leakage crisis from Japan is a topic to be discussed in present public health. In radiology, the leaked radioactive elements are considered hazard. Here, the author briefly reviews and discusses on two important radio-hazard elements in post nuclear power plant crisis, radioactive iodine and radioactive cesium. Based on previous similar nuclear crisis in Russia, it ...
