Bitlis’te Yetişen Bazı Tıbbi ve Aromatik Bitkilerin Radyo İzotop Aktivite Konsantrasyonları

Bu çalışmada, Bitlis’te yetişen bazı bitkilerde doğal olarak bulunan radyo izotop konsantrasyon seviyeleribelirlendi. Numuneler, NaI(Tl) gama ışını spektrometresi kullanılarak analiz edildi. Bu bitkilerde, 226Ra radyoizotop aktivite konsantrasyon seviyelerinin 12,45 ± 2,53 Bq/kg ile 92,08 ± 5,34 Bq/kg arasında, 232Th radyo izotopkonsantrasyon seviyelerinin 23,10 ± 4,42 Bq/kg ile 88,00 ± 6,68 Bq/kg arasında, 40K radyo izotop konsantrasyonseviyelerinin 42,57 ± 5,15 Bq/kg ile 533 ± 7,78 Bq/kg arasında değiştiği görülmüştür.

The Radioisotope Activity Concentrations of Some Medical and Aromatic Plants Growing in Bitlis

In this study, the levels of radioisotope activity concentration naturally found in some plants growing in Bitlis were determined. The samples are analyzed using NaI(Tl) gamma ray spectrometry. In these plants, it is seen that the levels of 226Ra radioisotope activity concentration between 12.45 ± 2.53 Bq/kg and 92.08 ± 5.34 Bq/kg, the levels of 232Th activity concentration between 23.10 ± 4.42 Bq/kg and 88.00 ± 6.68 Bq/kg, the levels of 40K radioisotope activity concentration between 42.57 ± 5.15 Bq/kg and 533.48±7.78 Bq/kg are changed.
