Radon in groundwater sources of Bosso Community in North Central Nigeria and concomitant doses to the public

Realizing the probable health hazards from radon exposure, potable groundwater samples (hand-dug wells and boreholes) in the Bosso community of North Central Nigeria were collected and assayed for radon concentration. Durridge RAD-7 detector together with RAD-H2O accessories was employed in this stu...
