this study was conducted to determine the radioactivity concentration in soil samples of anarak-khour district located at central iran. 48 soil samples from a depth of 10-15 cm were taken from seven different sites for monitoring. the radioactivity concentration of 238u, 232th, 137cs and 40k in soil samples was determined, using a high resolution (hpge detector, p-type) γ-spectrometry by detect...

introduction foodstuffs are known to contain natural and artificial radionuclides. determination of radionuclide concentration is of great significance for the protection of human health. the main objective of the present study was the quantification of radionuclides in tea samples, cultivated in guilan province in north of iran. materials and methods the activity concentrations of 226ra, 232th...

to assess the environmental radioactivity levels and hence to determine the population exposure in kutubdia island, bangladesh the sediment samples were analyzed by using gamma ray spectrometry. in those sediment samples the average activity concentration of natural radionuclides 238u, 232th and 40k were found 15.39±1.67, 38.35±0.76 and 475.51±21.15 bq/kg respectively. the activity concentratio...
