| risk assessment of pcdd/fs levels in human tissues related to major food items based on chemical analyses and micro-erod assay. | nine groups of food items (freshwater fish, marine fish, pork, chicken, chicken eggs, leafy, non-leafy vegetables, rice and flour) and three types of human samples (human milk, maternal serum and cord serum) were collected for the analysis of pcdd/fs. results of chemical analysis revealed pcdd/fs concentrations (pg g(-1) fat) in the following ascending order: pork (0.289 pg g(-1) fat), grass carp (ctenopharyngodon idellus) (freshwater fish) (0.407), golden thread (nemipterus virgatus) (marine fi ... | 2009 | 19535140 |

| uptake of 137cs and 90sr in rice plants. | in order to study the transfer of water-borne 137cs and 90sr into rice plants, pot experiments were done by growing rice plants on soils taken from rice beds near two nuclear power plants: qinshan nuclear power plant and daya bay nuclear power plant in china. the vertical migration of 137cs and 90sr in the soil samples was studied, and results show that almost all the contaminants were retained in the top 1 cm of soil with at most a few percent down to 3 cm of soil. the areal transfer factors of ... | 2003 | 12553646 |
