초록

무에 대한 $I_2$ 증기의 작물체 침적속도와 뿌리 전류계수를 측정하기 위하여 파종 후 29 일에서 53 일 사이에 생육시기별로 작물체를 $I_2$ 증기에 80 분 간 피폭시켰다. 피폭은 오전 중에 투명한 상자 내에서 수행되었다. 침적속도($ms^{-1}$)는 대체로 $1.0{\times}10^{-4}{\sim}2.0{\times}10^{-4}$의 범위로 생육밀도가 높을수록 증가하는 경향이었다. 또한 상대습도가 높을 경우 값이 커진다는 기존 보고와 어느 정도 일치하였다. 본 침적속도는 몇몇 야외 측정치보다 수 십 배 정도 낮았고 이는 주로 피폭상자 내의 낮은 풍속($0.2\;ms^{-1}$ 내외)에 기인하는 것으로 추정되었다. 뿌리 전류계수(작물체 총침적량에 대한 수확시 뿌리 내 함유량의 비)는 다소 보수적으로 계산하여 파종 후 29 일 피폭에서 $1.3{\times}10^{-3}$, 파종 후 53 일 피폭에서는 $5,0{\times}10^{-3}$이었다. 본 실험결과의 이용에 있어서는 기상 조건, 요오드의 물리화학적 형태 등에 유의할 필요가 있다.

In order to measure the deposition velocity of $I_2$ vapor for radish plants and its translocation factor for their roots, radish plants were exposed to $I_2$ vapor for 80 min. at different growth stages between 29 and 53 d after sowing. The exposure was performed in a transparent chamber during the morning time. Deposition velocities ($ms^{-1}$) were on the whole in the range of $1.0{\times}10^{-4}{\sim}2.0{\times}10^{-4}$ showing an increasing tendency with an increase in the biomass density. The results showed some agreement with existing reports that a higher relative humidity would lead to a higher deposition velocity. The acquired deposition velocities were lower than by factors of several tens than some field measurements probably due to a very low wind speed (about $0.2\;ms^{-1}$) in the chamber. Translocation factors (ratio of the total iodine in the roots at harvest to the total plant deposition), estimated in a more or less conservative way, were $1.3{\times}10^{-3}$ for an exposure at 29 d after sowing and $5.0{\times}10^{-3}$ for an exposure at 53 d after sowing. In using the present experimental data, meteorological conditions and chemical and physical forms of iodine need to be carefully considered.
