Measurement of uranium content and its distribution in some crustacea of Mysidacea species by the fission track method.
Uranium distributions and contents in Mysidacea species were investigated in order to be subsequently correlated with some specific properties of these crustacea. The fission track micromapping technique was used in uranium distribution and content measurements. The investigated biological samples were: (1) Javanisomysis gutzui Bacescu, 1992 and (2) Mesopodopsis slabberi Van Beneden, 1861. The determined contents varied in the range of natural background values of uranium.
