Title

The effective radium content and radon concentrations in coffee samples

Pages

  461-466

Abstract

 Background: Many people in Iraq and indeed the world choose to drink Coffee on a daily basis; accordingly, we planned to find the radium and uranium concentrations in addition to the Radon emission rate to determine if Coffee shows the levels of radioactivity that may affect people’ s lives. Material and Methods: A nuclear track detector (CR-39) was used to study the natural radioactivity of ten samples of Coffee collected from local Iraqi markets. Results: The effective radium content varied from 0. 13 to 0. 66 Bq/kg with a mean 0. 32 Bq/kg. The mass exhalation rates of radon vary from 0. 024 – 0. 121/kg. h, with a mean 0. 059 Bq/kg. h, while the surface exhalation rates of radon vary from 0. 47 – 2. 39/ 2. h, with a mean 1. 16 Bq/m2. h. Uranium content varied from 0. 10 to 0. 54 ppm with a mean value of 0. 26 ppm. Conclusion: Insofar as health effects are concerned, the results have shown that all the samples were entirely safe.
