Abstract
This study aims at measuring radon radiation in 35 different samples of local and imported powdered milk using nuclear track detector CR-39 to record the existence and impact of Alpha particles emitted from radon in the examined samples. Plastic pipes and tubes of the U type were used with the samples in radiating the detector. The study revealed that the highest concentration of radon was (1371.3) Bq.m−1 in the sample M4 (Dielac2-Dubai) and the lowest concentration is in sample M32 (Lamsa- Jordan) with a radon level (151.8) Bq.m−1. The levels of radon that were measured fall within the normal and natural concentration of the radiation that emit from the radionuclide in food and thus do not make any risk to the human life.
