Radiokinetic study in betony marine algae; Estudo radiocientico em algas marinhas bentonicas

Abstract

The influx and outflux kinetics of some radionuclides in algae of the Rio de Janeiro coastline, were studied in order to select bioindicators for radioactive contamination in aquatic media, due to the presence of Nuclear Power Stations. Bioassays of the concentration and loss of radionuclides such as {sup 137}Cs, {sup 51}Cr, {sup 60}Co and {sup 131}I were performed in 1000cm{sup 3} aquarium under controlled laboratory conditions, using a single channel gamma counting system, to study the species of algae most frequently found in the region. The concentration and loss parameters for all the species and radionuclides studied were obtained from the normalized results. The loss parameters were computerwise adjusted using Powell`s multiparametric method. (author).
