Activity levels of gamma-emitters in Brazil nuts
The activity concentrations of radionuclides 137Cs, 40K, 226Ra and 228Ra were determined in Brazil nuts acquired at point of sale between 2010 and 2013. Results indicated that the estimated annual effective radioactive dose due to ingestion of Brazil nuts is 27% of annual dose limit of 1 mSv y-1 for...
