Abstract:The content of 137Cs in the cat-fish (Silurus glanis L.) of cooling-pond of the Chernobyl NPP, Pripyat River and Kanev reservoir was studied during 1986-2005. The positive «dimensional effect» is registered in accumulation of 137Cs by the cat-fish. The maximal average content of 137Cs (100 kBq/kg) is revealed in muscles of the cat-fish of cooling-pond in 1988. Since then the content of 137Cs in the cat-fish from all investigated reservoirs is decreased. The rate of decrease of 137Cs content in the cat-fish has appreciably decreased last years. Concentration factor of accumulation 137Cs to the cat-fish have achieved the maximal values after 8-10 years from the accident on Chernobyl NPP.
