Status of radioactive contamination of food

Radioactive contamination of scintillators

Low counting experiments (search for double β decay and dark matter particles, measurements of neutrino fluxes from different sources, search for hypothetical nuclear and subnuclear processes, low background α, β, γ spectrometry) require extremely low background of a detector. Scintillators are widely used to search for rare events both as conventional scintillation detectors and as cryogenic s...

Radioactive contamination of ZnWO4 crystal scintillators

The radioactive contamination of ZnWO4 crystal scintillators has been measured deep underground at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory (LNGS) of the INFN in Italy with a total exposure 3197 kg × h. Monte Carlo simulation, time-amplitude and pulse-shape analyses of the data have been applied to estimate the radioactive contamination of the ZnWO4 samples. One of the ZnWO4 crystals has also been te...

Bacterial contamination of food.

Man is a creature of his environment. He shares its hazards with many other living organisms and for most of the time achieves a measure of peaceful coexistence with them. But the balance is a delicate one, and very minor changes, such as an imperceptible rise in humidity or fall in temperature, may upset it surprisingly (Christie, 1971-2). Man is also a great manipulator of his environment and...
