Abstract | The aim of this work was to check whether the stable cesium content in forest litter affects the value of radiocesium from litter-tomushroom transfer factor Tf or not. Total cesium in litter, measured by AAS, varied from 0.1-2.7 t~g/g- These data, combined with earlier results for mushrooms, showed no simple correlation for Tf. More complex relationships provided very high correlation coefficients, but their validity needs further investigation. |
