Indoor radon measurements were performed using LR-115 type-II solid state nuclear track detectors in Sakarya University in classrooms, laboratories and offices during the period from July 2013 to June 2014. The results show that the radon concentration in studied buildings ranges from 0.20±0.04 to 94.1±10 Bq/m³ with an average value of 40±5 Bq/m³. The annual effective doses from radon were estimated to range from 0.18 to 2.00 mSv/y with a mean value of 1.00 mSv/y. These results indicate no radiological health hazard, as the measured activities are well below International Commission on Radiological Protection recommended level of 200 Bq/m³ for indoor radon.

The paper presents the results of radon concentration measurements in thermal waters of Kuzuluk and Taraklı (Sakarya, Turkey) and their contribution to annual effective dose exposure. The radon measurements were performed using RAD 7, a solid state α detector, with RAD H₂O accessory. The results show that the radon activities are within the range of 0.19-5.89 Bql¯¹ with an average value of 0.98 Bql¯¹. The associated annual effective doses have been estimated to range from 0.14 to 0.40 μSvy¯¹ for ingestion and from 1.81 to 5.14 μSvy¯¹for inhalation of radon released from the water. These values are significantly lower than the WHO recommended limit of 100 μSvy¯¹
