Although Fukushima nuclear radiation in Japan has been a long time, in fact, everyone's fear of nuclear radiation still hasn't been eliminated. Naturally, this kind of fear finally comes, and the fish affected by nuclear radiation are detected. What harm will such fish do to human body? Let's learn about it next!
Overseas network, March 5 - the 7th anniversary of Japan's 311 earthquake and Fukushima nuclear disaster is approaching. Tokyo Electric Power Company conducted an investigation in the town of dashungcho, where the first nuclear power plant is located. Radioactive cesium was detected in fish about 4 kilometers offshore, more than twice the national standard of Japan. TEPCO announced its findings on Saturday.
According to dongwang.com, Dongdian will regularly spot check the fish in the sea area and monitor their radiation content. The results of the spot check on February 2 showed that 358 Becquerels of cesium were contained in every 1kg of small fin redfish, more than 100 Becquerels of the Japanese national standard. If you eat 200 grams, it's equal to 1 / 50 of the chest X-ray exposure, about 1 milliSievert.
It is reported that the test fishing is carried out in the 10 km sea area around the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.
Hazards of radiation fish:
Recently, a 'highly radioactive fish' was caught near the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. The amount of radioactive cesium contained in every kilogram of fish meat reached 254000 Becquerels (radiation intensity unit), which is 2540 times higher than the standard of seafood. It has set the highest radiation level of fish since the Fukushima nuclear accident. It has exposed the nuclear crisis in Japan for two years, and the harm is still very worrying 。
One kilogram of fish equals four to eight X-rays
Tokyo Electric Power Company, which is in charge of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, admitted Friday that the radiation levels of five kinds of fish caught in the waters around the plant since December were far higher than the standard levels of seafood.
Among the "high radiation fish" captured, a 28 cm long thick head of Sebastes has been determined to contain 254000 Becquerels of radioactive cesium.
According to Japanese food safety law, the radioactive cesium content of general food is not allowed to exceed 100 Becquerels per kilogram. This shows that the radiation content of 28 cm thick head Sebastes in this treaty has exceeded 2540 times.
According to experts, if one kilogram of this' high radiation fish 'is ingested at one time, the amount of radiation received by the body is about equal to four to eight times of X-ray.
