Estimation of natural radionuclide and exhalation rates of environmental radioactive pollutants from the soil of northern India

Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2020
The estimation of radioactivity level is vital for population health risk assessment and geological point of view and can be evaluated as rate of exhalation and source concentration (226Ra, 232Th and 40K).

Estimation of radon exhalation rate from a brick wall during various stages of construction by measuring exhalation rates from various building materials

Radiation Protection and Environment, 2020
Radon concentration in a room can be predicted from accurate knowledge of exhalation rates from six surfaces of the room. Walls of a room occupy the maximum surface area of the room.

RADON EXHALATION FROM GRANITIC ROCKS

Brazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences, 2019
Naturally occurring radionuclides such as radon (222Rn), its decay products and other elements from the radioactive series of uranium (238U and 235U) and thorium (232Th) are an important source of human exposure to natural radioactivity. The worldwide evaluation of health radiobiological effects and risks from population exposure to natural ...

Radon and thoron exhalation rate, emanation factor and radioactivity risks of building materials of the Iberian Peninsula [PDF]

PeerJ, 2020
Radon (222Rn) and thoron (220Rn) are radioactive gases emanating from geological materials. Inhalation of these gases is closely related to an increase in the probability of lung cancer if the levels are high.

Beyond Upper Airway Involvement: Evidence of Intrinsic Lung Disease in a Mouse Model of Mucopolysaccharidosis I

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Almost all patients with mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) develop respiratory dysfunction of varying severity during disease progression. While respiratory disease in MPS has traditionally been attributed to upper airway obstruction caused by glycosaminoglycan (GAG) accumulation in the trachea and bronchi, involvement of the intrapulmonary ...

Radon-thoron measurements in air and soil from some districts of northern part of India [PDF]

Nuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2015
Radon, thoron and their progenies in the indoor environment are considered as one of the health hazards. The alpha emitting nature of these gases made it possible to detect in indoor environment with the help of nuclear track detector techniques.
