Abstract: The radioactivity of several samples of Coryphaena Hippyrus
caught in the southern Pacific in May, 1954, after the atomic explosion
at Biki ni, was found, in decreasing order, in spleen, kidney, liver,
pyloric ceca, heart, gill, intestine, gastric wall, ovary, testis,
gastric content, red muscle, skin, vertebrae, and muscle. The red
muscle of Neothunnus Macropterus showed 54.8 counts/min./0.20 g
activity on dry basis, the activity was decreased to 27.6 by soaking 25
g. muscle in 25 cc. water, and to 14.1 by soaking in 0.5% Na
ethylenediaminetetraacetate solution. The radioactive substances in
these fish tissues were found, upon analysis, to belong to the III
group, particularly to III-B group. Examination of synchroscope
patterns by scintillation counter indicated the presence of /sup 65/Zn
among the radioactive substances.
/sup 90/Sr was suggested to be
present in very small amount.;
