Radio-ecological monitoring of the environment encompasses the measures of specific radionuclide activity in the samples from the environment that is relevant for the exposure of inhabitants, first of all in air, drinking water, food and in some typical representatives of flora and fauna with characteristic features of radioactive contamination (the ability of radionuclide to concentrate). The aim of monitoring is: a) timely detection and identification of all uncontrolled radiation sources or radiation contamination; b) assessment of real and possible exposure of the critical group or inhabitants to radioactive matters in the environment due to use of any radiation sources; c) keep the record on the radioactivity level in the environment; d) check if all the legislative regulations and other restrictions are fulfilled; e) inform the public. According to the final results of measuring different samples form the territory of the Republic of Serbia in the period 1986 to 2008, it may be concluded that the level of natural and artificial (long-lived) radionuclides (originating from Chernobyl) was low, in tolerant and acceptable levels.
