abstract

in this study, natural and artificial radioactivity concentration in agaricus bispora (nourished mushroom) and their composts, cantharellus cibarius and coprinus micaceuc (wild species) were determined. samples were collected from sahne and two kinds of wild mushroom species from songhor koliai township gardens all located in kermanshah province were collected. hpge gamma ray spectrometry system was used to determine the specific activity of 238u, 235u, 232th, 40kand 137cs. radioactivity concentration of 238u, 235u and 232th in the edible mushroom samples in different cultivation were lower than mda and for 40k and 137cs they were equal to 1895.24±14.21 – 1920.24±14.71 bq/kg dry and up to 0.72±0.06 bq/kg dry respectively. results of specific activity of 238u, 235u ,232th, 40k and 137cs for the composts were equal to 3.40±0.81, up to 5.24±0.34, 6.59±1.63- 7.82±1.37, 1166.12±33.21 – 1428.27±13.71 and 0.75±0.24 – 1.97±0.27 bqkg-1dry respectively. edible mushroom in different cultivation of this measurement shows that the radioactivity concentration of interest are close to or lower than mda (minimum detectable activity) but radioactivity concentration of composts indicate the low pollution of these regions by nuclear accident or nuclear weapon test. consumption of the mushrooms would impose no health consequences to the consumers.

Radiological Assessment of the Artificial and Natural Radionuclide Concentrations of Some Species of Wild Fungi and Nourished Mushrooms

Introduction Artificial and natural radionuclides are found in diverse environmental compartments, such as water, soil, rocks, vegetables, animals, and human body tissues. As such, humans and environments are at constant exposure of these radiation types. In this research investigated specific activities of radionuclide and dose assessment of some species of mushrooms. Materials and Methods In ...

Nucleotide Sequencing and Identification of Some Wild Mushrooms

The rDNA-ITS (Ribosomal DNA Internal Transcribed Spacers) fragment of the genomic DNA of 8 wild edible mushrooms (collected from Eastern Chota Nagpur Plateau of West Bengal, India) was amplified using ITS1 (Internal Transcribed Spacers 1) and ITS2 primers and subjected to nucleotide sequence determination for identification of mushrooms as mentioned. The sequences were aligned using ClustalW so...

detection of volatile compounds of medicinal plants with some nano-sorbents using modified or new methodologies and investigation of antioxidant activity of their methanolic extracts

in this work, a novel and fast method for direct analysis of volatile compounds (davc) of medicinal plants has been developed by holding a filament from different parts of a plant in the gc injection port. the extraction and analysis of volatile components of a small amount of plant were carried out in one-step without any sample preparation. after optimization of temperature, extraction time a...
