Abstract: Radiation damage that can be caused to humans through exposure and ingestion (incorporation) of radioactive substances depends primarily on the amount and type of radiation and radioactive substances ingested. To exclude the possibility of radiation damage through the ingestion of radioactive substances, the maximum permissible concentrations (MPC) should be monitored as far as possible. This concept defines the limit values of the activity concentration of food products, drinking water and general consumption, after being exposed to radioactive contamination, which within a certain period of consumption does not cause serious damage to the population and people conducting emergency and rescue activities.
