Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We explored the analytical method for beta-emitter, tritium and alpha emitter, polonium-210 using many kinds of foods in order to survey foods. Developed a method for tritium which includes a liquid scintillation counting and azeotropic distillation was practical and useful for safety assessment of foods, considering its good recovery, sensitivity, precision and simplicity. For polonium-210, we showed that the direct stainless disc electrodeposition method was practical for preparing samples in most foods. In addition, we examined the level of tritium or polonium-210 on the Japanese market. No tritium radioactivity was detected in analyzed foods, whereas polonium-210 radioactivity was detected in some foods such as fishes.
