From: Decontamination of Cs from Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) via kraft cooking

	¹³³Cs-treated	¹³⁷Cs-contaminated
Bark	34 ± 2.1^a	29 ± 0.58^a
Sapwood	38 ± 3.6^ab	36 ± 4.2^b
Heartwood	41 ± 0.58^b	34 ± 2.1^ab

The values are the mean ± standard deviation of three replicates
Different letters mean significant difference at p < 0.05
