Determination of natural and anthropogenic radioactivity in mushrooms: bioconcentration and dose assessment

This paper presents studies on natural and anthropogenic radioactivity determination in different mushroom species (Boletus Aereus, Boletus Edulis, Boletus Aestivalis, Agaricus Arvensis, Cantharellus Lutescens, Cantharellus Cibarius, Leccinum Quercinum, Macrolepiota Konradi, Lactarius Deliciosus) co...
