AW: [ RadSafe ] TFP comment #I I, Environmental variability of Sr-90 concentration

[Franz Schönhofer]

As with my comment #1 I present first my credentials which might demonstrate
my authority regarding my comment: We have done an extensive surveillance on
Sr-90 concentration in among other food items, milk, milk products and
cereals after the Chernobyl accident and data are available back to the late
fifties. The environmental Sr-90 contamination in Austria has been evaluated
retrospectivly by a research project on Sr-90 in red-deer antlers.  
Everybody engaged in measurement and evaluation of Sr-90 concentration and
its impact on dose should be aware of the variability of it in a natural
environment. The variations claimed by the TFP are all within "natural
variations". 

Still nobody out there who would compare the claimed Sr-90 concentrations in
teeth with the actual releases?????? Nobody comparing it to published
research on the same topic or to bones? So why complain about the Mangano
paper, if no scientifically clear counter arguments are available? I wait
for them!

Franz
