چکیده
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 is evidenced that the increased incidence of some cancers in post-crisis period is due to exposure to these two important radioactive elements. iran. j. radiat. res., 2011 9(4): 271-273

متن کاملAccumulation 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 کاملBehavior of Radioactive Cesium in Municipal Solid Waste of Thermal Treatment Plants after Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant Accident – 16626
Municipal solid waste (MSW) contaminated by radioactive cesium (r-Cs) has been treated by various thermal treatment facilities in Japan. However, the behavior of r-Cs in their plants is scarcely known. Therefore, we investigated 4 types of the thermal treatment plants to understand the r-Cs behavior during different thermal treatments of the MSW. The distribution of r-Cs between residue dischar...
