New Environmental Pollution Study Findings Have Been Reported by Investigators at University of the Sciences (Natural Radionuclides In Rice Soils In the Mekong Delta Region, Vietnam: Health Risk, Transfer To Rice, and Long-term Accumulation In ...)

摘要

2021 SEP 17 (NewsRx) - By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Disease Prevention Daily - New research on Environmental Pollution is the subject of a report. According to news reporting originating from Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "In the world, many studies have focused on the natural radioactivity in agricultural soils and food crops and the transfers of radionuclides between two components. However, the influence of long-term agricultural practices on the activity concentrations of radionuclides in the soils remains unclear." Funders for this research include Vingroup Joint Stock Company, Vingroup Innovation Foundation (VINIF), Vingroup Big Data Institute (VINBIGDATA). Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from the University of the Sciences, "On the other hand, the soil-to-plant transfer factors of radionuclides for a specific plant type are different between the regions of the world. In this study, activity concentrations of natural radionuclides in 16 rice and corresponding soil samples in the Mekong Delta region of Vietnam were measured by a gamma spectrometer with a high purity germanium detector.
