Abstract  

An analytical method for the determination of127I and129I in various environemntal samples has been developed. The method consists of the separation of iodine from the samples using a double layered quartz tube firing apparatus, post-irradiation purification of iodine, and measuring126I and130I by means of gamma spectrometry. The relative standard deviations of this method was less than 6%.

Abstract  

For a realistic dose estimation, we derived the concentration factors (CF) of plutonium and americium for the field measurements of marine products and ambient coastal sea water.The distribution of the concentration ratios (CR) between the concentration in marine products and that in ambient sea water shows a lognormal distribution. The concentration factors of plutonium and americium which are derived as the geometric mean of CR values, are 231 and 67 for whitebait, 12 and 37 for flatfish, 350 and 220 for brown algea, 140 and 670 for shell fish, 27 and 130 for cephalopods, and 250 and 550 for crustaceans, respectively.
