| Özet |
| Although the application of chemical fertilizers is necessary for growing plants, it causes an increase in natural radionuclide levels in the soil. Plants take up these radionuclides from the soil through their roots, thus posing a signicant health risk to people who consume these plants. In addition, plants also become radioactive with the accumulation of radioactive substances falling on them from the air or rainwater. In the present study, natural radioactivity levels were measured in some dried vegetable samples purchased from local markets in Gaziantep city using gamma-ray spectrometry. e specic activity of natural radionuclides was measured in dried vegetables such as okra, bell pepper, gourd, eggplant, and hot pepper. e results show that the highest specic activity of 226Ra, 232, and 40K in eggplant vegetables was (30.0±2.3, 45.9±2.1, and 812.8±27.1) Bq kg-1, respectively. e average value of the specic activity of radium, thorium, and potassium in dried vegetable samples was (20.5±1.4, 22.8±1.2, and 431.1±15.2) Bq kg-1, respectively. e specic activity results obtained were compared with the published data and it was determined that the values found were at the safety levels for human health. |
