Abstract
The uptake of radionuclides 60Co 32P and 134Cs by some aquatic plants Lemna gibba Ceratophyllum demersum and Potamogeton crispus present in the Ismailia Canal at different pH values and for different contamination periods was studied The experimental results showed that the uptake generally decreases as the water pH increased The tested macrophytes proved to be reliable biological indicators
