RADON AND RADIUM CONCENTRATION IN SELF-BOTTLED MINERAL SPRING WATER FROM THE PUBLIC FOUNTAIN “ELIXIR” AT THE MOKLIŠTE AREA, REPUBLIC OF NORTH MACEDONIA

Within this paper is presented information about current study of radon and radium analysis in self-bottled drinking water from the public fountain “Elixir” Moklište area, city Kavadarci. Obtained results for measurements, preventive method taken samples, ranged 3.40 up to 3.69 Bq·l–1, while values typical samples 2.60 3.62 Bq·l–1. Radon concentration measured obtained way showed lower than corresponding using sampling method, where comparison respective P1-T1, P2-T2 P3-T3 have shown 1.09 %, 17.62 % 23.53 method. water, 0.08 0.19 Bq·l–1 0.11 0.14 Bq·l -1.
