The study aims at measuring the gamma activity concentration (Ra, Th and K) of sub-slab filling gravel of Finnish houses. This study forms a part of a wider study aiming at exploring factors affecting high indoor radon concentrations in Finnish dwellings. The gamma activity and radon emanation were measured from gravel samples sent from 229 Finnish municipalities, the gamma activity was reporte...
n 1987 the International Agency for Research of Cancer (IARC) evaluated radon and its decay products as human carcinogens (1). Large epidemiologic studies conducted in Western Europe in the Õ90s showed that this radioactive gas accounted for 50 to 90% of a radiological dose (2). Very high residential concentrations of radon were measured in Sweden and Finland (3-5). They were 5,000 times higher...
Background: Ramsar (Mazandran province) is known for its extremely high levels of natural background radiation. Although no excess cancer rate is reported in these areas by epidemiological studies, the study of tumor markers in the inhabitants of these areas may shed some light on the impact of high levels of background radiation on cancer induction. Materials and Methods: The level of backgrou...
Continuous Air Monitors (CAMs) are used in nuclear facilities to detect airborne alpha-emitting transuranic radionuclides in work areas, stacks and ducts. We have now tested the first commercial version of the original Los Alamos/Texas A&M design for its performance. The penetration of inhalable-size particles onto the CAM filter is better than 80%, with excellent uniformity of sample. With the...
although there are substantial experimental, epidemiological and clinical evidences that high doses of ionizing radiation cause cancer and other detrimental biological effects, the health effects of human exposure to chronic low dose radiation exposures are still poorly known. people in some areas around the world live in dwellings with radiation and radon levels as much as more than 200 times ...
The concentration of radon-222 in air was measured during a flight from Miami to Barbados to Dakar and return; concentrations ranged from 1 to 55 picocuries per standard cubic meter of air and were highest in areas of dense haze, which were present along most of the flight path across the Atlantic Ocean. The haze is attributed to dust originating from the arid regions of western Africa. Radon-2...
Radon concentration was measured in ground floor of two buildings with moisture controlled sub slab construction and slab on the ground. Results show that radon concentration in ground floor of the building with moisture controlled sub construction is more than 11 times smaller than that of the building with slab on the ground. Also indoor radon concentration in this building is about %41 highe...
the west of esfahan province, iran, is one of the most important agricultural areas throughout the country due to the climate variability and life-giving water of zayanderood river. rice is one of the major and economic crops in this area. the most important climatic elements in agricultural activities which should be considered include temperature, relative humidity, precipitation and wind. so...
