Original Research
Background: A study on the migration
characteristics of 238U, 210Po, 232Th and 40K within the
soil to the wild plants in the Western Ghats were
carried out. Materials and Methods: Concentrations
of these radionuclides were measured in different
depths of soil and from different species by employing
gamma ray spectrometer and alpha counter. Results:
The activity concentration of these radionuclides
varied faintly within the soil but widely varied within
the plant and between the species. Conclusion: The
CR (Concentration ratio) showed wide variation in
different species, while a few species of wild plants
such as Evodia roxburghiana, Eleaocarpus oblangus
and Glochidion neilgherense indicated preferential
uptake of these radionuclides. Iran. J. Radiat. Res.,
