Hence, an investigation has been performed to quantify radioactivity level in some non-food items imported to Sudan. Radioactivity was measured by using high-resolution & Copyright@ International Science Community Association 947;-spectroscopy based on HPGe detector. The survey has resulted in detection of radionuclides 134Cs 137Cs 40K 226Ra and 60Co. The result of this investigation has revealed that some imported substances contain high activity concentration. However the obtained result have shown that the 134Cs 137Cs 40K 226Ra and 60Co activity concentration were far below the limit proposed (CODEX). In the Sudan there is no standard limit for radionuclides concentrations in some imported substances. Therefore we need to set a national standard limit for some radionuclide in imported substance and laying down under a legal framework.
