The level of potential danger arising from radioactive waste storage facilities can be different. Studies are needed that allow us to draw conclusions about the impact of uranium discharged from waste storage facilities for local residents. The purpose of the work is to study the content of uranium in biological samples (urine, hair) taken from residents of the settlement of Aksu, located near the radioactive waste reservoir. During the study, the content of uranium was determined in biological samples taken from local residents living in the settlement of Aksu, located near the radioactive waste storage facility, with an average duration of 30 years. It was found that hair samples had a higher uranium content than urine samples. The data obtained can be used to determine the standard amount of uranium in the urine. At the same time, the detected uranium content in biological samples can be a bioindicator indicator in radiation safety measures.
