Abstract
The signal intensities of CO2- radicals in teeth can be utilised as an individual indicator of the cumulative external dose for animals. To accurately determine the external dose, it is desirable to analyse the CO2- radical intensity and improve its detection limit. We recently reported a dose-response in the range of 0-200mGy and estimated the absorbed dose for seven wild Japanese macaques captured in/around the related areas to the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident. Herein, for further improvement of this method, we examined the electron spin resonance spectra of the teeth of these seven and an additional four macaques captured in Fukushima by applying two spectrum-decomposition algorithms.
