Description
Summary:In the present study twenty samples of human urine were taken from healthy male and female with different of: ages, occupation and place of residence. These samples were collected from the hospital to measure the concentration of radon gas in human urine by using one of solid state nuclear track detectors LR-115. The results obtained of the concentrations of radon in healthy human urine are varying from 2.12×10-3 Bq.l-1 to 4.42×10-3 Bq.l-1 and these values are less than the allowed limits 12.3×10-3 Bq.l-1.
