Series Description: These records consist of results data for raccoon biomonitoring in 1992. Most analyses are of raccoon hair. Data sheets identify the date and mass (in grams) of the samples; the equipment used and its sensitivity; detector type and calibration date; and radiation readings, including background levels, in counts per second. "Nuclide line activity reports" for activation products, fission products, natural products and others and minimum detectable readings are included, as are blank runs and analyses of Prell shampoo, which was used to clean the hairs prior to analysis. Cesium-137 appears in the analyses.
