[en] The present chapter provides brief details on experimental setups, needed to evaluate the transfer, in various environmental matrices. These experiments would also help to study the attainment of equilibrium conditions, which is of prime importance to evaluate the transfer factors. These experiments are only guidelines for achieving the objective, however, they are required to the modified as per the needs and convenience of the users

[en] Man is always exposed to pollutants either natural or anthropogenic. Environmental monitoring is one of the most important methods to assess exposure levels and their effects on human beings, ecology and environment. After completion of all exercises of environmental monitoring the ultimate aim is to communicate the results, either to the regulatory authorities or to the general public. This remains unaddressed until data interpretation, it's statistical analysis and communicable inferences are not drawn. To perform statistical analysis of environmental data and it's interpretation, a general approach is described in this paper

[en] This paper presents the results of a control study conducted in an aquarium containing the radioactive effluent, where fishes were reared to obtain data on uptake of 3H, 134Cs, 137Cs and 60Co by fishes. The concentrations of studied radionuclides were ascertained by replicate analysis of effluent water in the experimental aquarium. The fishes were periodically sampled from the aquarium and analysed by high resolution gamma spectrometry to evaluate 134Cs, 137Cs and 60Co. Tissue free tritium (TFT) and organically bound tritium (OBT) contents were estimated using packard 3170 liquid scintillation counter. The study was continued for a period of seven months to assess the equilibrium between effluent water and fishes. At equilibrium conditions the water to fish transfer factors for OBT, 137Cs, 134Cs and 60Co were found to be 0.02, 177, 143 and 18 respectively. (author)
