RADIOACTIVE STRONTIUM IN SOIL, CROPS, FOOD-STUFFS AND HUMAN BONES IN THE NETHERLANDS. PART 2
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4193437
Results are presented for 1958 and 1959 on Sr/sup 89/ and Sr/sup 90/ analyses on various biological materials. First Sr/sup 89/ and Sr/sup 90/ concentrations are given of soil, grass, and milk obtained from different localities, selected for high and respectively low calcium contents of the soils. Comparison with the results of 1957 shows a relativeiy small increase of Sr/sup 90/ in the soil, about 10%, but much larger increases up to 150% of Sr/sup 90/ concentrations per gram of calcium in milk. The December 1957 milk data reflect levels present in winter fodder while the May 1958 data reflect levels occurring in the pastures. Samples of grass taken in May 1958 contained less Sr/sup 90/ per gram of calcium than grass taken in December 1957. (auth)
