Levels of [sup 210]Po in some beverages and in tobacco

Abstract

The objective of the present work is the estimation of the [sup 210]Po content in some beverages and in tobacco, in order to assess the corresponding collective doses to the population in Argentina. Yerba mate, tea leaves, their infusions and ground coffee were analyzed, as well as tobacco. Collective doses due to the annual consumption of the beverages described were found to be from 6 man.Sv to 1200 man.Sv. Results for [sup 210]Po in tobacco ranged from 10 Bq*kg[sup -1] to 80 Bq*kg[sup -1]. Lung doses due to the use of tobacco vary from 75 [mu]Sv*y[sup -1] to 600 [mu]Sv*y[sup -1].
