[ 1 ] - Impact of fertilizers on the uptake of 226Ra, 232Th, and 40K by pot-grown rice plants

Fertilizers usually enhance potassium (K) content and other naturally occurring radioactive materials in agricultural fields that eventually enter the human food chain through plants. In this study, pot-grown rice plants planted in soil that is relatively high in natural radioactive content was used to estimate the individual influence of fertilizer applications on the uptake of 226Ra, 232Th, a...
