Analysis of guidance levels of radionuclide for food and drinking water / 中国医学装备

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate guidance levels of radionuclide for food and drinking water.Methods: According to the relevant standards and technical documents issued by international organizations, the computing methods of guidance levels of radionuclide for food and drinking water under the existing exposure situation and emergency exposure situation were analyzed and researched.Results: The calculated guidance levels of 17 radionuclides in drinking water and 20 radionuclides in food in existing exposure situation were provided, and the guidance levels of 24 radionuclides in food and drinking water in emergency exposure situation also were proposed. It was found that the relevant standards in China were lag and the standard of guidance levels of radionuclides activity concentrations for drinking water were deficient.Conclusion: It is suggested that the standards of guidance levels of radionuclide for food and drinking water in China should be formulated or revised by referring to international standard that issued from international organization and taking into account the specific conditions in China so as to preferably protect public health of our country.
