Abstract

Radon (222Rn ) concentration and Radium (226Ra ) content in some selected samples of Coffee powder of common use collected from the market, were estimated using solid state nuclear track detectors CR - 39 . The Radon gas concentration was found to vary from ( 36-108 )Bq.m-3. The effective Radium content of solid samples varies from ) 0.0185 - 0.0925) Bq.kg-1. The present investigation is useful from the health and environmental point of view.
