Title: THE BEHAVIOUR OF Sr-89, Cs-137 AND FISSION PRODUCT CONTAMINATION DURING THE BREWING OF PILSENER BEER

Abstract

ABS>Some tracer experiments with Sr/sup 89/, Cs/sup 137/, and fission products present during the brewing of pilsener beer are described. Only 1.0% of the radiostrontium added finally reached the beer. For radiocesium70%, and for fission products as a whole, 12.5% of the radioactivity was found in the beer. Some figures are given for the Sr/sup 90/ and Cs/sup 137/ fall-out contamination in Norwegian beers. (auth)
