The samples were selected from the residence of high natural background radiation (HNBR) area and analyzed using chemical procedure. The separated sample was placed on a membrane filter by the sedimentation method, and it was prepared for counting with the alpha spectrometry system. The average radioactive concentrations found in these samples were as follows: U-234 > Ra-226 > Th-230 > Ra-228 > Th-228 > Ra-224 > Th-232 > Pu-239. The average concentrations of U-234 and Ra-226 were much greater than the other radionuclides.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessActinideAlpha SpectroscopyBiological SamplesHigh Natural Background Radiation (Hnbr) AreaArticle3321043434353WOS:0011272145000012-s2.0-85172085647N/A10.1007/s10967-023-09147-1Q2
