Description

Ge(Li) spectrometer was used to determine specific activities for nuclides 95Zr, 95Nb, 103Ru, 129Tem, 132Te, 131I, 134Cs, 137Cs, 140La. Measurements lasted for 70 days. Maximum specific activities of commercial milk and breast-milk for 131I were 225, and 133 Bq/l, respectively. Milk samples of cows stalled by different feeds, of scalded, unscalded milk, and of milk products were compared. Radioacitivity of powdered milk, parsley and red currant was also measured. Detailed results for nuclides as a function of time are listed in five tables. (author) 10 refs.; 5 tabs
