Lethal effects of high-voltage pulses on E. coli K12.

abstract：:The Goiânia accident, Brazil, was used as an opportunity to quantify the contributions of different mechanisms, in particular mass loading, leading to caesium uptake by leafy vegetables in a semi-urban environment contaminated with 137Cs. Soil splash contributions of 70-90% were quantified for lettuce and 50-60% for g...
