海洋贝类对HTO的吸收和结合态氚的形成动态

Uptake HTO from Seawater by Seashell and Formative Dynamics of Bound Tritium in Seashell

为了探明HTO在海洋环境中的行为,采用同位素示踪技术研究了5种海洋贝类对HTO的吸收和贝类组织中结合态氚的形成动态.结果显示:贝类组织中的氚以自由水氚(即HTO)和结合态氚形式存在,以自由水氚为主,其量占贝类中总氚比活度的97.4%以上,结合态氚的含量很低,仅占贝类中总氚比活度的0.4%～2.6%.海洋贝类对自由水氚的吸收速度非常快,仅2h有3种贝类(青蛤、紫贻贝和焦河蓝蛤)已达最大值.结合态氚的形成和积累随时间呈缓慢增长的趋势.富集系数(CF)值分析表明,海洋贝类对HTO没有明显的富集作用.

Uptake HTO from seawater by five kinds seashell and formative dynamics of bound tritium in organ of seashell are studied by using the isotope-tracer techniques in order to get a better understanding of the marine environmental behavior of HTO. The results show that the tritium in seashell exists in free water tritium and bound tritium form. The free water tritium is main form; its content observed was more than 97.4% of total tritium. The bound tritium content was very lower, only being 0.4%～2.6% in total tritium. The speed of HTO untaken by seashell is very rapid, specific activity of HTO in three kinds seashell had reached their maximum only 2 h after treatment. The bound tritium in seashell increases slowly with time. The results of analysis of concentration factor (CF) values indicate that HTO would not concentrate in the seashell.
