The biologically effective dose from environmental radiation was measured using phage T7 and uracil thin layer sensors in a dosimeter developed previously (Gy. Ronto, S. Gaspar and A. Berces, Phages T7 in biological UV dose measurement, J. Photochem. Photobiol. B: Biol., 12 (1992) 285–294; P. Grof, S. Gaspar and A. Berces, Uracil thin layers in dosimetry of UV radiation, Proc. Int. Symp. Budapest Biomedical Optics, Europe, 1993 , to be published). Examples of measured daily and annual profiles are presented to demonstrate the possibilities and limits of biological dosimetry. In addition, phage T7, uracil sensor and Robertson-Berger meter results are compared. A comparison of model calculation data with the measured values is presented. On the basis of the results obtained, the application of biological dosimeters in both long-term field measurements and laboratory experiments is suggested. |
