abstract = "In the current conditions of economic and social development, the danger of radioactive contamination
on a large scale has increased significantly due to more frequent accidents at nuclear power plants, which
increases the degree of threat to biotechnical production and radiation risk to the population. It is known
that the main route of intake of radioactive substances in humans and animals, in the case of radioactive
contamination of a territory, is intake through food (it accounts for over 70% of the total intake of
radionuclides). It is also known that the basis of any protection, including radiation, is prevention, i.e. cutting
the chain of contamination before the contaminant reaches the human or animal body. As the food chain is
the main route of intake of radionuclides in the body, it is clear that the protection of that chain can most
successfully protect a person. For over 35 years, LABRAH-Laboratory for Radiation Hygiene, as an
accredited laboratory, has been performing continuous radiation-hygienic supervision, import-export, over
products of animal origin, animal feed, feed additives and other products. This paper presents the results of
gamma spectrometric control of fish samples, fish products and fish food in the period from 2015 to 2021.
The aim of this paper is to point out the current radiation situation in the field of radiation hygiene control
and the manner of implementation of procedures and measures for protection against radioactive
contamination of produced radionuclides in regular conditions, as a basis for human and animal health.
Based on the results obtained in the period from 2016 to 2021, the activity of 137Cs in fish, fish products and
fish food was below the prescribed limits. During this period, there was no additional radioactive pollution of
the environment, we mean the nuclear accident in Fukushima, and also that the activities of this radionuclide
in our diet are at a very low level.",
