Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The Fukushima-Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident released a substantial amount of radioactive nuclides into the atmosphere and caused extensive contamination of the environment. In this study, we tried to measure external exposure in such environment using human teeth. Teeth samples were exposed for six months in polluted zones induced by the accident. It is well known that external exposure produce CO signals in teeth enamels and these signals remain in it for a long time. We assesed the CO signals by using electron spin resonance measurement. As a result, it was confirmed that teeth enamel samples exposed in the evacuated zone under about 160 mGy per year (18.3μGy/h) increased in CO signals. And, there was a fine correlation between actual measurement values by dosimeters and regression analysis values by the CO signals in the teeth enamel in this condition.
