About Megabecquerels per kilogram

The megabecquerel per kilogram (MBq/kg) equals 10⁶ Bq/kg. Typical for enriched or irradiated materials: moderately irradiated nuclear fuel after cooling has fission-product specific activities in the MBq/kg to GBq/kg range for individual nuclides; ₉ₐSr in high-dose-rate brachytherapy sources is characterised in MBq/kg. 1 MBq/kg = 10⁶ Bq/kg.

About Microcuries per kilogram

The microcurie per kilogram (µCi/kg) equals 3.7 × 10⁴ Bq/kg = 37 kBq/kg. Used in US nuclear facility waste characterisation and NRC licence conditions for effluent releases; ¹³⁷Cs body burden in heavily exposed Chernobyl liquidators reached the µCi/kg level in the immediate aftermath. 1 µCi/kg = 3.7 × 10⁴ Bq/kg.
