Radon and progeny concentration measurements in various drink samples are intrinsically important for assessing the health risks resulting from daily consumption of these drinks. In this study the comparison between two Solid State Nuclear Track Detectors (SSNTDs), the CR-39 and the CN-85 has been conducted for the purpose of evaluating the radon concentration, annual effective dose, the rate of exhalation of radon and the effective radium content in thirty-two different samples of soft drink, water, and milk available in the local Iraq markets. The results showed that there are significant differences in the measurement results for the two detectors. The annual effective dose of the investigated samples is still below the limit of International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) recommendation in the measurements of both detectors.

各种饮料样品中的氡和后代浓度测量对于评估这些饮料的日常消费所导致的健康风险具有内在的重要性。在这项研究中，CR-39 和 CN-85 两种固态核径迹探测器 (SSNTD) 之间的比较已进行，目的是评估氡浓度、年有效剂量、氡呼出率和有效伊拉克当地市场上有 32 种不同的软饮料、水和牛奶样品中的镭含量。结果表明，两种探测器的测量结果存在显着差异。被调查样品的年有效剂量仍低于国际放射防护委员会（ICRP）在两个探测器的测量中建议的限值。
