Fish is an important source of protein in human diets, but concerns arise due to natural radionuclide contamination in food and water sources. The study aimed to assess the concentration radionuclides activities (²³²Th, ²³⁸U, and ⁴⁰K) in three commercial fish species from west coast waters of Sabah,...
