Behavior of cesium in fish tissues from Savannah River
Abstract A survey of cesium residues in fish from the Savannah River near the Savannah River Nuclear Plant was undertaken in 1983. Fish tissues, bone, fin, and muscle were incubated by the wet disgestion method for analysis. Seventeen fish samples were analyzed by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry procedure to determine cesium content. It was found that cesium concentration levels were consistently higher in the bones and fins than in muscles of all fish species. It seems that cesium concentration levels were relatively higher in fins than in bones. Cesium concentration levels in muscle tissues were negligible in all fish species.
