摘要
Uptake and clearance of radionuclides in foodstuffs have been studied in the neighborhood of Aberdeen in North East Scotland following the Chernobyl accident. The level of **1**3**1I in goats' milk was 100-200 Bq liter** minus **1 in early May and declined with an effective half-life of 4. 3 days, but that in cows' milk was only a few Bq liter** minus **1 as most cattle were kept indoors. **1**3**7Cs and **1**0**3Ru activities in broccoli declined with effective half-lives of 11 and 6 days respectively, while **1**3**7Cs in grass decreased with a half-life of 22 days, the reduction appearing to show a relationship to weekly rainfall.
