Mushrooms are a complementary foodstuff and considered to be consumed locally. The
demand for mushrooms has increased in recent years, and the mushroom trade is becoming …

A simple and new coprecipitation procedure is developed for the determination of trace
quantities of heavy metals (lead, cobalt, copper, cadmium, iron and nickel) in natural water …

Background: The ionising power of beta-emitting radionuclides is intermediate between the
more ionising alpha particles, and gamma radiation, although they are similarly harmful on …

Radiostrontium is a common product of nuclear fission and was emitted into the environment
in the course of nuclear weapon tests as well as from nuclear reactor accidents. The release …

Coal-fired power-plants (CFPP) can be a source of contamination because the coal contains
trace amounts of natural radionuclides, such as 40 K and 238 U, 232 Th and their decay …

This paper discusses activity concentrations of 210Po, 210Pb, 40K and 137Cs in edible wild
berries and mushrooms collected from Øvre Dividalen national park, Northern Norway and …

Collections of Cystoderma carcharias sporocarps were sampled from clean and smelter-
polluted sites and analyzed for Ag, As, Cd, Cu, Pb, Se, and Zn contents. Concentrations of …

This article presents a bibliometric study of 200 European publications released between
2001 and 2016, about the contamination of mushrooms by selected elements. The analysis …

This pioneering study aimed to determine the activity concentrations of 210 Po, 210 Pb and
