초록

우리나라 주요 밭작물(콩, 무, 배추)에 대한 $^{99}Tc$의 토양-작물체 전이계수(TF)를 조사하기 위하여 온실 내에서 포트실험을 수행하였다. 토양은 경주 방폐장 주변 네 곳(콩 두 곳, 무 및 배추 두 곳)의 밭에서 채취하였다. 파종 3-4 주 전에 건조 토양을 $^{99}Tc$ 용액과 혼합한 다음 포트에 담고 관개하였다. TF 값은 건조 토양 중 $^{99}Tc$ 농도(Bq $kg^{-1}$-dry)에 대한 작물체 내 농도(Bq $kg^{-1}$-dry or fresh)의 비로 나타내었다. TF 값은토양 간에 큰 차이가 없었다. 콩알의 TF 값은 경엽부에 비해 극히 낮아 $^{99}Tc$의 종실로의 이동성이 매우 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 콩알, 무 뿌리, 무 잎 및 배추 잎에 대한 $^{99}Tc$ 전이계수의 대표치가 각각 두 토양에 대한 산술평균치인 $1.8{\times}10^{-1}$, $1.2{\times}10^1$, $3.2{\times}10^2$, $1.3{\times}10^2$(건조 작물체 기준)로 제안되었다. 채소류의 경우 신선 작물체에 대한 대표치도 제안되었다. 본 제안치는 대표성이 충분치 못하므로 지속적으로 최신화 할 필요가 있다.

In order to investigate the soil-to-plant transfer factor (TF) of $^{99}Tc$ for Korean major upland crops (soybean, radish and Chinese cabbage), pot experiments were performed in a greenhouse. Soils were collected from four upland fields (two for soybean and two for radish and Chinese cabbage) around Gyeongju radioactive-waste disposal site. Three to four weeks before sowing, dried soils were mixed with a $^{99}Tc$ solution and the mixtures were put into pots and irrigated. TF values were expressed as the ratios of the $^{99}Tc$ concentrations in plants (Bq $kg^{-1}$-dry or fresh) to those in soils (Bq $kg^{-1}$-dry). There was no great difference in the TF value between soils. The TF values for soybean seeds were extremely lower than those for the straws, indicating a very low mobility of $^{99}Tc$ to seeds. As representative TF values of $^{99}Tc$, $1.8{\times}10^{-1}$, $1.2{\times}10^1$, $3.2{\times}10^2$ and $1.3{\times}10^2$ (for dry plants), arithmetic means for two soils, were proposed for soybean seeds, radish roots, radish leaves and Chinese cabbage leaves, respectively. In the case of the vegetables, proposals for fresh plants were also made. The proposed values are not sufficiently representative so successive updates are needed.
