The theme of this thesis is "Radiocesium levels in selected game". The aim of the work was to use gammaspectrometric analysis and carry out a measurement of 137Cs content in meat samples of selected game from several locations in the Czech Republic. Thirty samples of muscles from 15 wild pigs were analysed. Samples were taken from 6 locations in Czech Republic. Measurement of the samples was performed in different geometries: Marinelli beakers (500 ml), PE bottles (100 ml) and Petri dishes (10ml). The aim was to compare measured 137Cs activities with published data and within particular locations, compare 137Cs activities in different geometries and assess the importance of radionuclides in the meat from the perspective of food safety. The results showed that in areas of larger fallout after the Chernobyl accident 137Cs in wild pig meat is still possible to measure over limit. Comparing different measurement geometries was found that the Petri dish (10 ml meat sample) can be used as an alternative and acceptable geometry.
