Cesium Radioisotope Content of Wild Edible Fungi, Mineral Soil, and Surface Litter in Western North America After the Fukushima Nuclear Accident

Canadian Journal of Forest Research, 2014
We measured activity levels of radioisotopes cesium-134 (134Cs) and cesium-137 (137Cs) in wild edible fungi, mineral soil, and surface litter of the west coast of North America from southern California to northern Vancouver Island after the Fukushima nuclear accident.

Local Structure of Strontium Adsorbed on 2:1 Clay Minerals and Its Comparison With Cesium by XAFS in Terms of Migration of Their Radioisotopes in the Environment

Journal of Radioanalytical and Nuclear Chemistry, 2018
This study aimed to reveal local structures of strontium (Sr) and cesium (Cs) adsorbed on clay minerals (vermiculite and montmorillonite), which suggests stabilities of the adsorbed species of 90Sr and 137Cs in the environment. Adsorption experiments to determine solid-water distribution, XRD for interlayer distances of the clay minerals, and EXAFS for

Zirconium phosphates deposited on the granulated silica gel as adsorbents for the extraction of cesium, strontium radioisotope ions

Separation Science and Technology, 2021
A preliminary study of a lot of adsorbents for the adsorption of radioisotopes of cesium, strontium and yttrium from the drain waters of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant showed that granular zirco...

Uptake of cesium and strontium radioisotopes onto pillared clays

Journal of Radioanalytical and Nuclear Chemistry, 1999
Abstract  Pillared clays were characterised by thermal analysis and small-angle X-ray scattering. They were then examined for their ability to take up137Cs and90Sr/90Y isotopes as a function of concentration and competing cations (Na+, K+, NH4 +, Ca2+, Mg2+) in the concentration range 10−1 to 10−4 M. The radioisotope uptakes were quantified byK d (ml/g)

Contaminated Marine Sediments As a Source of Cesium Radioisotopes for Benthic Fauna near Fukushima

Environmental Science & Technology, 2016
Marine animals, seawater, and sediment near Fukushima, Japan have become contaminated with 134Cs and 137Cs released in March 2011 from the damaged Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant. Radiocesium concentrations in some benthic fauna declined more slowly than in pelagic fish in the same region. We tested the hypothesis that benthic fish remained more

EVALUATION OF CUPRIMINE® AND SYPRINE® FOR DECORPORATION OF RADIOISOTOPES OF CESIUM, COBALT, IRIDIUM AND STRONTIUM

Health Physics, 2011
Cuprimine® and Syprine® are therapeutics approved by the USFDA to treat copper overload in Wilson Disease (a genetic defect in copper transport) by chelation and accelerated excretion of internally-deposited copper. These oral therapeutics are based on the respective active ingredients D-penicillamine (DPA) and N,N'-bis (2-aminoethyl) -1,2 ...

Fast concentration of dissolved forms of cesium radioisotopes from large seawater samples

Journal of Radioanalytical and Nuclear Chemistry, 2012
The method developed for cesium concentra- tion from large freshwater samples was tested and adapted for analysis of cesium radionuclides in seawater. Concen- tration of dissolved forms of cesium in large seawater samples (about 100 L) was performed using composite absorbers AMP-PAN and KNiFC-PAN with ammonium molybdophosphate and potassium-nickel ...

Competetive transport of cobalt-60, strontium-90, and cesium-137 radioisotopes across polymer inclusion membranes with DNNS

Journal of Membrane Science, 2007
Abstract Plasticized cellulose triacetate membranes with 3,7-dinonyl-naphtalene-1-sulfonic acid (DNNS) containing o -nitrophenyl pentyl ether (ONPPE) as the plasticizer were prepared for competitive transport of Cs-137, Sr-90, and Co-60 isotopes from aqueous solutions at concentration of 1.0 × 10 −7  M each and containing 0.10 M sodium nitrate.

Evaluation of Mini-mental Status Examination Score in a Prospective Study of Neurosurgical Resection and Intraoperative Cesium-131 Radioisotope Brachytherapy in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Brain Metastases

International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 2014
population is low. However, loss of PG function of about 5%/ 1 Gy of mean dose has been reported, suggesting that mean doses encountered in this study are significant with potential to impact salivary function and thereby affect QOL in these patients.
