wi85 was not detected in breadfruit, arrowroot, or
coconut milk at Rongelap or in the internal parts of Pandanus +
fruit from Nan Island, Bikini Atoll.

Since the above samples

represent the internal parts of plants and did not contain
wi85, although leaf samples from the same area did contain

high levels ofthe isotope, it is probable that w285 1s not
taken up in significant amounts by plants but occurs rather
as surface contamination.
