ON THE EFFECT OF ETHYLENEDIAMINETETRAACETATE (EDTA) ON THE ACCUMULATION COEFFICIENT OF DIFFERENT RADIOISOTOPES FROM AQUEOUS SOLUTION BY FRESH-WATER PLANTS (in Russian)
The effects of ethylenediaminetetraacetate on the accumulation coefficients of Ce/sup 144/, Co/sup 60/, Cs/sup 137/, Fe/sup 59/, Nb /sup 95/, Ru/ sup 106/, S/sup 35/, Sr/sup 90/, Y/sup 91/, Zn/sup 65/, and Zr/sup 95/ from aqueous solutions were studied. Eight grams of elodea (Elodea canadinsis Rich,), aquatic plant (Ceratophyllum demersum L), duckweed (Lemna minor L.), and chara (Chara fragilis Desw.) were placed in three liters of water containirg 400 mg of EDTA per liter. Tabulated data show 4 groups of isotopic reactions to EDTA. The first group includes strontium and cesium (whose uptake increases in the presence of EDTA), the second is represented hy sulfur (which does not react to EDTA), the third group consists of zirconium, niobium, and ruthenium (whose uptake is reduced 2 to 3 fold in the presence of EDTA), and the fourth group contains iron, cobalt, zinc, yttrium, and cerium (whose uptake is reduced 10 to 100 fold).
