Review on studies in high background radiation areas (HBRAs) of various parts of the world
The present paper reviews the studies of populations living in high background radiation areas (HBRA). Past studies have shown that high background radiation has been repeatedly shown to increase the frequency of chromosome aberrations in the circulating lymphocytes of exposed persons, but its carcinogenic effect is still unproven. A further area of research is whether long term exposure to bac...
متن کاملRadionuclides and Radiation Indices of High Background Radiation Area in Chavara-Neendakara Placer Deposits (Kerala, India)
The present paper describes a detailed study on the distribution of radionuclides along Chavara - Neendakara placer deposit, a high background radiation area (HBRA) along the Southwest coast of India (Kerala). Judged from our studies using HPGe gamma spectrometric detector, it becomes evident that Uranium ((238)U), Thorium ((232)Th) and Potassium ((40)K) are the major sources for radioactivity ...
متن کاملRadiation dose in the high background radiation area in Kerala, India.
A systematic radiological survey has been carried out in the region of high-background radiation area in Kollam district of Kerala to define the natural gamma-radiation levels. One hundred and forty seven soil samples from high-background radiation areas and five samples from normal background region were collected as per standard sampling procedures and were analysed for (238)U, (232)Th and (4...
متن کاملEvaluation of gene expression of MLH1 and MSH2 between inhabitants of High Background Radiation Areas in Ramsar, Iran
Introduction: Annual effective radiation dose from all natural sources is approximately about 2.4 mSv and contribution of unnatural or man-made sources is 0.8 mSv. In some places of Ramsar, radiation dose due to radon exposure is about 3700 Bqm -3 while according to US EPA instruction radon levels should be 200 Bq m-3. Amazingly, there is not a meaningful result in the studies...
متن کاملNon-linear phenomena in biological findings of the residents of high background radiation areas of Ramsar
Some Areas of Ramsar, a city in northern Iran are among the world’s wellknown inhabited areas with highest levels of natural radiation. Annual exposure levels in these areas are up to 260 mGy y‐1 and the mean exposure rate is about 10 mGy y‐1 for a population of about 2000 residents. If elevated levels of natural radiation as high as a few hundred mSv per year is detrimental to health and...
