About Picocuries per kilogram

The picocurie per kilogram (pCi/kg) equals 3.7 × 10⁻² Bq/kg. Standard US unit for soil and sediment radioactivity screening: EPA soil screening levels for ²²⁶Ra and ²³‸U are cited in pCi/g (= nCi/kg); fish tissue ¹³⁷Cs limits in some US regulations use pCi/kg. 1 pCi/kg = 3.7 × 10⁻² Bq/kg.

About Picobecquerels per kilogram

The picobecquerel per kilogram (pBq/kg) equals 10⁻¹² Bq/kg. Environmental monitoring of very pure water samples and ultra-low-background detector materials reports natural radioactivity (²²⁶Ra, ²²⁸Ra) at pBq/kg; material purity screening for low-background physics experiments (neutrinoless double-beta decay searches) uses pBq/kg sensitivity thresholds. 1 pBq/kg = 10⁻¹² Bq/kg.
