Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiation
Casopis lekaru ceskych, 2021Ionizing radiation refers to the flow of material particles or photons of electromagnetic radiation that can ionize atoms of the environment through which it passes. At the cellular level, damage can be manifested by cell death or changing their cytogenetic information.

BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF IONIZING RADIATION
2023Ionizing radiation emerges as a form of energy discharged by atoms through electromagnetic waves or particles. This particular radiation finds utility across diverse domains like medicine, industry, agriculture, and research. Despite its intrinsic harm and potential toxicity to organisms, regulated amounts find application in medical imaging and ...

Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiations
Journal of Neuropathology & Experimental Neurology, 1958Biological effects resulting from exposure to ionizing radiations are due to the absorption of energy. The effects are not caused by the heat involved since the temperature rise seems to be insignificant. For example, 1,000 roentgens is a lethal whole body exposure for almost all vertebrate animals and yet the heat equivalent of the energy transferred ...

Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiation
2016The study of the biological effects of ionizing radiation started practically at the same time as the discovery of X-rays in 1895. Since the techniques and methods accepted today to quantify radiation dose were absent at that time, first findings and studies were barely qualitative.

Demonstration of a Biological Effect of Natural Ionizing Radiations
International Journal of Radiation Biology and Related Studies in Physics, Chemistry and Medicine, 1983The blue-green alga, Synechococcus lividus, was grown under various levels of radiations. Shielding of cultures with lead resulted in a lower cell growth rate: the reduction disappeared when a normal radiation level was restored in the lead chamber.

Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiation
2010Any radiation exposure might have negative effects on health. This can be considered as the basic principle of radiation protection. It is therefore no surprise that radiation damage due to ionizing radiation was first observed right after the discovery of radioactivity by Becquerel.

Biological effects of ionizing radiation
2015Biological effects of radiation have been interpreted based on the assumption that DNA is the primary target, but recent research has shown that non-targeted mechanisms may affect cells that are not directly exposed. The most important effect in humans from low doses of radiation is the induction of cancer, but risks of other effects such as cataract ...

Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiation
1988Ionizing radiation affects human tissues by depositing energy as it passes through the body. During the tenth of a trillionth of a second after radiation hits an atom in a tissue, an electron is stripped from this atom. This process is called ionization.
