Cesium fixation in mushrooms

Description
It has been found that the various mushroom species accumulate Cs-137 in very different quantities. Whereas specimens of the species Xeromus badius always contained high amounts of Cs-137, analyses of specimens of the related species Boletus edulis showed only weak accumulation of the radionuclide. It is assumed that this general difference in accumulation of Cs-137 is due to a difference in the organic constituents of the mushrooms. (orig.)
Abstract (German)
Die Anreicherung von Cs-137 erfolgt ueber verschiedene Pilzarten in sehr unterschiedlicher Menge. Waehrend der Maronenroehrling (Xeromus badius) regelmaessig durch sehr hohe Werte an Cs-137 auffaellt, zeigt der nah verwandte Steinpilz (Boletus edulis) nur eine geringe Anreicherung an diesem Radionuklid. Der Unterschied in der Aufnahme von Cs-137 duerfte daher in verschiedenen organischen Bestandteilen des Pilzes liegen. (orig.)Additional details
