Activity levels of Po-210 and Pb-210 in some fish species of the Izmir Bay (Aegean Sea)
Özet
Concentrations of Po-210 and Pb-210 were determined in the edible muscle tissue of twelve species of marine fish collected from Izmir Bay in the Aegean Sea Region of Turkey during the 2006-2007. Po-210 activity concentrations in fish samples were found to vary from ND to 400 +/- 9 Bq kg(-1) dry weight and Pb-210 activity concentrations were found to vary from ND to 15 +/- 3 Bq kg(-1) dry weight. The highest dose contribution due to Po-210 to humans was found to be 8.908 mu Sv y(-1). (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
