| Abstract | ||
| The aim of this study is to determine radon concentration in local fish in Basra (Iraq) and imported fish. The passive radon method employed has been achieved by means of cylindrical time integrated technique of Solid State Nuclear Track Detectors (SSNTDs). The obtained radon concentration ranged from (309.4 Bq/m3) to (1600 Bq/m3) in local fish and from (507.3 Bq/m3) to (1100 Bq/m3) in imported fish. From the measurements all of the fish measured were within permissible level recommended by ICRP(1987 ) for foods [12]. This study gives us data base about the concentration of radon in fish found in Basra fish markets, and compares this data with radon data in vegetable of Basra markets. | ||
