| description | Examination of radioactivity in edible liquids is very important because large amounts are taken into the body during the day. This scientific paper presents a comprehensive study on the gamma spectrometry analysis and health risk assessment of edible liquids. The study involved samples of various liquid products such as alcoholic beverages, juices, and milk. Milk is an important part of our regular diet for everyone, from newborns to adults, so we determined the active concentrations of radionuclides for both milk from farms directly and milk bought in a supermarket. The gamma spectrometry analysis was performed using a high-purity germanium detector to determine the concentration of natural and artificial radionuclides. The radioactivity of each sample is presented as the mean value of the measured sample from five different manufacturers. In conclusion, the gamma spectrometry analysis and health risk assessment of edible liquids demonstrated that the concentration of radionuclides in the selected liquid food products was not a major health concern. However, continuous monitoring and evaluation are recommended to ensure that the safety of the products is maintained within the permissible limits. |
