In order to compare the soil-to-plant transfer factors (TFs) of fallout 137Cs and those of native stable 133Cs, concentrations of these isotopes were determined in various crops and the associated soils collected throughout Japan.
The results showed that TF-137Cs was 11 times higher than TF-native 133Cs for brown rice, while those values were almost the same for leafy vegetables. Possibly, fallout 137Cs would be more mobile and more easily adsorbed by plants than native 133Cs in the soil because a part of the 133Cs is in a soil structure where it is hard to replace with 137Cs. However, 137Cs and native 133Cs have reached an approximately isotopic equilibrium in the bioavailable fraction in the soils, therefore, the TF-native
133Cs can be used for long-term transfer of 137Cs in the environment. 相似文献

The radioactive contamination following the Chernobyl accident resulted in high concentrations of 137Cs in several mushrooms species. Mushroom samples were collected in a forest environment between 1986 and 2007 and the transfer
of 137Cs to two edible species, Suillus variegatus and Cantharellus spp., was investigated. The 137Cs uptake by the collected samples did not decrease over time and in Cantharellus spp. a significant increase was observed. Most of the 137Cs in soil still appears to be available for uptake and radioactive decay of the radionuclide is likely the main factor for
the reduction of 137Cs in a forest ecosystem. 相似文献

A coincidence method for measuring 137Cs, 40K, 226Ra and 232Th decay products activity in soil, vegetation and fish samples, was applied to the six-crystal gamma-coincidence spectrometer
PRIPYAT-2M. In this way, some problems appeared in simultaneous measurement of 137Cs, 226Ra and 232Th by NaI(Tl) detectors and the PRIPYAT-2M spectrometer were solved. The obtained results were agreeable with the HPGe spectrometer
ones. 相似文献

The measurement of fission product cesium isotopes 135Cs and 137Cs at low femtogram (fg) 10−15 levels in ground water by Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) is reported. To eliminate the natural barium
isobaric interference on the cesium isotopes, in-line chromatographic separation of the cesium from barium was performed followed
by high sensitivity ICP-MS analysis. A high efficiency desolvating nebulizer system was employed to maximize ICP-MS sensitivity
~10 cps/fg. The three sigma detection limit for 135Cs was 2 fg/mL (0.1 μBq/mL) and for 137Cs 0.9 fg/mL (0.0027 Bq/mL) measured from the standard with analysis time of less than 30 min/sample. Cesium detection and
135/137 isotope ratio measurement at very low femtogram levels using this method in a spiked ground water matrix is also demonstrated. 相似文献

Distribution of 137Cs, 40K and 7Be in tissues of the silver fir-tree was studied. Samples of the shoots were taken at six locations in Croatia during five
years. Shoots were cut according to the year of growth and analyzed. Distribution between needles and twigs was also studied.
Samples of the tree rings and the bark were taken at three locations. 137Cs and 40K showed very similar distributions. 137Cs and 40K activities were age-dependent and increased in decreasing age of twigs and needles. The highest activities were measured
in the youngest twigs. The highest 7Be activities were found in the twigs. 相似文献

Depth distribution of atmospheric 210Pb and 7Be and 90Sr and 137Cs fission products was measured in two types of aeolian soils (desert dust and volcanic ash), irrigated paddy soil and strongly
acidic soil. The depth dependence of 210Pb, 7Be and 137Cs show that these radionuclides have been diffused as solid soil particles in surface soil layers. In aeolian soil layers,
about 50% of 90Sr were diffused in surface soil layer and the remaining 50% had penetrated to deeper layers. The half of the fission particles
containing 90Sr were shown to have decomposed over the past 35 years. 相似文献

This paper is focused on a characterization of bacterial contamination in pool water of the interim spent fuel storage (JAVYS Inc.) in Slovak Republic and on bioaccumulation of 137Cs and 60Co by isolated bacteria. Bacterial community in pool water is kept on very low level by extremely low concentration of solutes in deionized water and by the efficient water filtration system. Based on standard methods and sequencing of 16S rDNA four pure bacterial cultures were identified as Kocuria palustris, Micrococcus luteus, Ochrobactrum spp. and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Isolated aerobic bacteria were able to bioaccumulate 137Cs and 60Co in laboratory experiments. The mechanism of Co and Cs binding involve rapid interactions with anionic groups of the components of cell surface and in the case of Cs+ ions is followed by transport processes across cytoplasm membranes and by intracellular distribution. The maximum specific uptake of Cs+ after 48 h cultivation in mineral medium (MM) reached 7.54 ± 0.48 μmol g?1 dw (Ochrobactrum spp.), 19.6 ± 0.1 μmol g?1 dw (M. luteus) and 20.1 ± 2.2 μmol g?1 dw (K. palustris). The maximum specific uptake of Co2+ after 24 h cultivation in MM reached 31.1 ± 3.5 μmol g?1 dw (Ochrobactrum spp.), 86.6 ± 12.2 μmol g?1 dw (M. luteus) and 16.9 ± 1.2 μmol g?1 dw (K. palustris). These results suggest that due to the long lasting uptake of 137Cs, 60Co and other radionuclides by biofilm in pool water high specific radioactivities (Bq m?2) can be expected on stainless steel walls of pools. 相似文献

This work presents the results of 137Cs, 40K, 232Th and 238U concentration (Bq kg−1) values in coastal marine sediments collected from 38 sites along the coastline of the island of Margarita, Venezuela. The
purpose was to determine baseline values for these radionuclides in surface marine sediments and to detect if there were any
anomalously high concentration values. Only three of the 38 sediments analyzed had measurable values above the detection limit
of 0.9 Bq kg−1 for 137Cs and the highest only being 1.4 Bq kg−1. While, the concentration (Bq kg−1) ranges for the primordial radionuclides, 40K, 232Th and 238U were as follows: 12.2–211.7, <1.5–9.8 and <4.4–20.7, respectively. These concentration ranges for the primordial radionuclides
can be considered as baseline values for surface marine sediments for areas that are considered not polluted by man or contaminated
by nature. Finally, the concentration range of 137Cs can also be employed as baseline values, which only seem to have been the result of the atmospheric testing of nuclear
weapons in the past. 相似文献

137Cs in seawater is one of the most powerful tracers of water motion. Large volumes of samples have been required for determination
of 137Cs in seawater. This paper describes improvement of separation and purification processes of 137Cs in seawater, which includes purification of 137Cs using hexachloroplatinic acid in addition to ammonium phosphomolybdate (AMP) precipitation. As a result, we succeeded the
137Cs determination in seawater with a smaller sample volume of 10 liter by using ultra-low background gamma-spectrometry in
the Ogoya underground facility. 137Cs detection limit was about 0.1 mBq (counting time: 106 s). This method is applied to determine 137Cs in small samples of the South Pacific deep waters. 相似文献

Summary The distribution and origin of 40K, 226Ra, 228Ra and 137Cs has been investigated in trees, mosses and lichens in the basin of the West Macedonia Lignite Centre. In tree leaves 137Cs is negligible, while the 226Ra and 228Ra concentrations are affected by the fly ash particles. Concerning 226Ra and 228Ra values of mosses and lichens, which are systematically larger than those of unpolluted areas, the application of chemometrics proved that they originate mainly from the lignite fly ash. 相似文献

In migration experiments, sorption of 137Cs and 152,154Eu in the columns of crushed crystalline rocks of 0.25–0.8 mm grain size under dynamic flow conditions from the synthetic
groundwater (SGW) has been studied. Five samples of crystalline rocks from Cavernous Gas Reservoir near Příbram were taken.
Plastic syringes of 8.8 cm length and 2.1 cm in diameter were used as columns. The water phase was pumped downward through
the columns, using a multi-head peristaltic pump, with a seepage velocity of about 0.2 cm/min. The radioactive nuclides, containing
chemical carriers, were added into the water stream individually in the form of a short pulse. Desorption experiments were
carried out with 2:1 (v/v) mixture of H2SO4 and HNO3. In the columns the longitudinal distribution of the residual 137Cs and 152,154Eu activities was also determined. By the evaluation of respective breakthrough and displacement curves, the experimental
and theoretical retardation factors, distribution coefficients and hydrodynamic dispersion coefficients were determined using
the integrated analytical form of a simple advection-dispersion equation (ADE). Dynamic sorption experiments were also compared
with the results of static sorption experiments.

Distribution of 40K and 137Cs in tissues of the Citrus aurantifolia was measured by gamma spectrometry. A simple theoretical model is also proposed to describe the temporal evolution of 40K activity concentration in such tropical woody fruit species. This model exhibits close agreement with the 40K experimental results, in the leaf growing and fruit ripening processes of lemon trees. 相似文献

As a result of routine soil sampling to determine the 137Cs background activities country-wide in Venezuela, it was decided to further investigate El Mirador (Lookout) area at the
base of the Sierra de Lema mountain range. In April 2003 (A), soil samples were collected at eight sites on and around the
edge of the diabase outcrop to confirm that this area had anomalously high 137Cs activities. In July 2003 (B), not only soil samples were collected again, but also black mat, palm tree leaves and trunks,
fruit bushes leaves and its fruit and fern leaves. The 137Cs content was measured by high resolution gamma-ray spectroscopy by a comparative method with reference materials. The 137Cs activity values range from 16.3 to 30.8 Bq·kg-1 in the soil samples collected in July 2003, 20.7–32.1 Bq·kg−1 for the black mat, 26.3–38.4 Bq·kg−1 for the palm leaves, 16.8–31.2 Bq·kg−1 for the palm trunks and 17.6–27.3 Bq·kg−1 for the fruit bush leaves, while, the 137Cs activity values for the whole fruit were between 23.4 and 30.7 Bq·kg−1; but, the value of the 137Cs activity in the center of the fruit (the edible part) was 51.6 Bq·kg−1, and the value of the 137Cs activity for the fern leaves was 51.8 Bq·kg−1. Thus, most of the 137Cs activity values determined in the soil, black mat and vegetation samples from El Mirador (Lookout) were considered anomalously
high with respect to those found near the equator and in other areas of Venezuela. Only the center of the fruit from the Clusia grandiflora bushes and the fern leaves had high activity ratios, about a factor of three and could be considered as biomonitors that
concentrate and retain the 137Cs. Finally, these anomalously high 137Cs activities have been attributed not only to the rich organic soils, as sinks, but also due to the affect of the cloud forests. 相似文献

This article presents the results of 137Cs and other radionuclide monitoring in EAF steel-making process in the Croatian CMC Sisak Steel Mill. The presence of 137Cs and natural isotopes 40K, 232Th, 226Ra and 238U was established. Investigations on the occurrence of the isotope cesium, as well as natural isotopes and their distribution
in waste from the process of carbon steel production by EAF have been conducted. Detection of artificial isotope cesium in
EAF dust indicates that it might originate from steel scrap or from the residue of the material that was used in the technological
process, thus deserving special attention. 相似文献

Studies of 137Cs distribution in East Malaysia were carried out as part of a marine coastal environment project. The results of measurements
will serve as baseline data and background reference level for Malaysia coastline. Twenty-one locations were identified along
the coastline of East Malaysia, and from each location water samples were collected at the surface of the seawater. Ten near-shore
locations were also selected and seawater was collected at three different depths. Large volumes of seawater were collected
and the co-precipitation technique was employed to concentrate cesium. A known amount of 134Cs tracer was added as yield determinant, followed by addition of copper(II) nitrate salt and a solution of potassium hexacyanoferrate(II)
trihydrate, to precipitate the total cesium. The precipitate slurry was oven dried at 60 °C for 1–2 days, finely ground and
counted using gamma-ray spectrometry. The activity of 137Cs was determined by measuring the peak area under the photopeak of the gamma-spectrum at 661 keV, which is equivalent to
gamma-intensity corrected for detection efficiency, percentage of gamma-ray abundance of the radionuclide and recovery of
134Cs tracer. There were no significant differences of 137Cs activities both in surface and bottom water samples at 95% confidence level. The activity of 137Cs (for all samples) was found to be in the range of 1.47 to 3.36 Bq/m3 and 1.69 to 3.32 Bq/m3 for Sabah and Sarawak, respectively. 相似文献

Summary Global fallout levels of 99Tc and 137Cs of surface seawater in the Pacific Ocean were measured. The 99Tc concentrations ranged from 0.62 to 3.33 mBq. m-3and 5 of 6 samples showed less than 1 mBq. m-3except one sample taken in the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. The 137Cs concentrations ranged from 2.13 to 3.14 Bq. m-3, showing a gradual decrease in the North Pacific toward the equator and a constant level in the South Pacific. The 99Tc/137Cs activity ratios ranged from 2.5. 10-4to 2.9. 10-4, which is very close to that calculated theoretically from the fission yield. 相似文献

Recently, the Institute for Reference Materials and Measurements (IRMM) has assumed responsibility for organizing regular
measurement comparisons among those laboratories which provide radioactivity monitoring data from their country to authorities
of the European Commission (EC) under various EC legislation articles. The most recent exercise under this International Comparison
Scheme for Radioactivity Environmental Monitoring (ICS-REM) in measuring the 137Cs, 40K and the 90Sr activity concentration in milk powder is presented here. The complete cycle of the comparison is described, including the
establishment of reference values traceable to SI units, the demonstration of the homogeneity of the distributed samples,
the treatment and measurement of samples in the participating laboratories, and the evaluation of the results. 相似文献

In support of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT), improvements have been made to the model of the Automated
Radioxenon Sampler/Analyzer (ARSA) β-γ coincidence detector for radioxenon monitoring. MCNPX is used to simulate the detector
response for all the electrons and photons emitted from 131mXe, 133Xe, 133mXe, 135Xe, and 137Cs signals. A MatLab code was written to incorporate the MCNPX results in the calculation of β-γ coincidence spectra. These
will aid in the development of the Spectral Deconvolution Analysis Tool (SDAT)1 and to calibrate β-γ coincidence systems. The models developed for this work include improvements over previous models in
their ability to address Compton scattering in the β-cell, and the β-distribution offset in the 31 keV γ-ray region for 133Xe. 相似文献

Summary The dispersion of radioactive substances in the environment following nuclear weapon tests in atmosphere since 1954 and accidents to nuclear plants, like that in Chernobyl in 1986, have allowed us to study the migration processes of some radionuclides in complex ecosystems such as lakes are. In the present paper the behavior of 137Cs and 90Sr in different compartments of the Monterosi Lake (central Italy) was assessed. The 137Cs concentration was measured in lake water as well as sediment, stream water, aquatic plant and fish samples. 90Sr concentration in water and sediments was also determined. A total inventory of 4206±76 Bq . m-2 and 958±79 Bq . m-2 (on 27/6/01) has been found for 137Cs and 90Sr, respectively. The experimental data presented here allow to calibrate theoretical models predicting the temporal trend of radionuclide concentration in similar ecosystems. Moreover, information on cesium and strontium migration processes can be extended to other pollutants having similar environmental behavior. 相似文献

The activity of 137Cs was determined in soils, mosses, lichens and other vegetation along the Caruay River and near the town of Kavanayen. The
range of values for the soils was from <1.2 Bq·kg−1 of 137Cs (our detection limit) to 14.1 Bq·kg−1. The range of 137Cs activities in the mosses ranged from 9.9 to 17.9 Bq·kg−1 with a mean value of 13.4±4 Bq·kg−1; all the moss samples were found along the river. While the 137Cs activities in the lichens ranged from 9.1 to 29.8 Bq·kg−1; the two values along the river were about three factors higher than the one near Kavanayen. It was concluded that the 137Cs activities in the soils, mosses and lichens are much higher along the river in respect to the nearby town of Kavanayen. 相似文献
