Although ranging among the most expensive gourmet foods, it remains unclear whether
Burgundy truffles (Tuber aestivum) accumulate radioactivity at a harmful level comparable to …

[en] The disaster that happened at the Chernobyl nuclear power station in 1986 caused a
sharp rise in radioactive pollution over an extensive area in the region of the Baltic Sea. To …

In the aftermath of the Chernobyl accident high concentrations of 137 Cs were found in
mushrooms in several European countries and inSweden. Two edible mushrooms species …

The aim of this study was to select species with higher potential to accumulate 137 Cs
among the available mushroom species, by determining the activity concentrations of 137 …

[en] It was the aim of this project to find indicators within the forest ecosystem for pollution
with artificial radionuclides. In the first line, the reference nuclide Cs-137 was examined …

B. edulis, collected from 33 forested or woodland sites across Poland over 25 years since
1995, were analysed for radiocaesium. The results (137 Cs activity range: 25 to 10,000 Bq …

The study of long-term behaviour of 137 Cs activity concentrations in some edible
mushroom species in North Croatia for the post-Chernobyl period (1986-2007) has been …

We compare the specific activities of 137 Cs and 40 K in stipes and caps of three different
common mushroom species (Xerocomus badius, Russula ochroleuca and Armillariella …

Abstract 137 Cs is one of the most important radionuclides released in the course of
atmospheric nuclear weapon tests and during accidents in nuclear power plants such as …
