Livestock meat as a bioindicator of natural radionuclide exposure and cancer risk near the Manyoni uranium deposit, Tanzania

Puntos clave

• Cancer risk correlates with natural radionuclide levels in livestock meat, indicating environmental health hazards.
• Exposure assessment demonstrated that livestock near uranium deposits show increased radionuclide presence.
• Analysis reveals that monitoring livestock can serve as an important bioindicator for environmental safety.
• Findings highlight the need for further studies to evaluate long-term health effects on local populations.
