Strontium 90 in Canadian milk

http://changeagents2011.wordpress.com/testing-monitoring-2/
Update Feb. 13, 2011
A new milk sample from a Vancouver store tested by a certified lab in February showed 0.3 Bq/ l of radioactive Strontium 90.

Get involved in collaborative Canadian testing effort

Lots of independent data here ..go canada ! Tdm.

scary - thanks for the pdf link

it is a crime against humanity

Nice find

Nice one tdm!

I would like to see a similar website stateside.

I wonder what the MDA's are? Also, I wonder what else was in the milk...if it shows Sr-90 but no Cs-134, could that be old Sr-90?

All should look at this - http://www.atsdr.cdc.gov/ToxProfiles/tp159-c6.pdf - esp pages 26-30. This was in 1997, well after the end of the atmospheric testing era. Look at the milk and juices.

Sr 90 details--2nd detect

For the sample with 0.3 Bc/l Sr 90, the dl (detectable level) and variation each were 0.2 Bc/ l. Cs 134 and Cs 137 were not detected (Dls were 0.2 Bc/ l each).

A new Strontium result for milk from February showed 0.4 Bc/ l. DL 0.2Bc/l, variation 0.3 Bc/l. Again, no Cs 134 or Cs 137 detected (DLs were 0.1 Bc/l and 0.2 Bc/l, respectively).

A previous milk sample showed beta radiation in excess of what was attributable to K40, but no Sr 90 test was carried out on that sample.

Can someone--Mark?--advise how it is possible to find Sr 90 but no Cs 134 or 137? Many thanks!

Valid questions

I have inquired on the mda issue and to see if any other activity was observed .awaiting a reply,. tdm
