Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Seaweed against strontium and preussian blue against cesium

open access: yesRangifer, 1988
The fact that alginates bind strontium and cyanates bind cesium and are capable of removing these elements from living organisms is scientifically verified. Zeolites offer another possibility for exchange of these ions.

An analysis of radioactivity distribution in soil particles using an autoradiogram method

open access: yesCogent Engineering, 2017
More than 22,000,000 m3 of soil was contaminated with cesium (Cs) radioisotopes following the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. For site remediation, it is necessary to reduce this huge volume of contaminated soil.

Decontamination of Liquid Radioactive Wastes Using Clay Minerals

open access: yesCumhuriyet Science Journal, 2018
The rapid increase in the use of nuclear energyand radioisotopes has necessitated the development of effective and economicmethods for the decontamination of radioactive wastes. In this study, thedecontamination of low-level radioactive wastes containing

Assessment of the effect of rainfall erosion on radioactive decontamination by analyzing the sedimentary layer formed by soil transported from mountains

open access: yesCogent Engineering, 2018
The accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant caused widespread contamination in Fukushima Prefecture. The area was mainly contaminated with radioisotopes of iodine 131, cesium 134, and cesium 137.

Effective and ecological half-lives of 90Sr and 137Cs observed in wheat and rice in Japan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Published pre-Fukushima food monitoring data from 1963 to 1995 were used to study the long-term presence of 137Cs and 90Sr in rice and wheat. Effective half-lives (T eff) were calculated for rice (137Cs: 5.6 years; 90Sr: 6.7 years) and wheat (137Cs: 3.5 ...

USING AEROBIC SYNTROPHIC ASSOCIATIONS OF MICROORGANISMS FOR THE DECONTAMINATION OF LIQUID RADIOACTIVE WASTE

open access: yesТонкие химические технологии, 2018
The primary objective of the study was to test the possibility of cesium-137 transmutation into a stable barium isotope in contact with an aerobic syntrophic association (SA - a conglomerate of several thousands of different species of bacteria, protozoa

Diazirines Beyond Photoaffinity Labeling: A Comprehensive Overview of Applications in Biological Sciences, Materials Chemistry, and NMR‐Spectroscopy

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 4, 22 January 2026.
Diazirines are three‐membered, nitrogen‐containing heterocycles that decompose under light or heat to generate carbenes. For the past two decades, they have served mainly as minimally invasive tags in photoaffinity labeling (PAL). More recently, their value as versatile carbene precursors has been recognized.

Temporal variations of 7Be, 40K, 134Cs and 137Cs in epiphytic lichens (genus Usnea) at the Sakhalin and Kunashir islands after the Fukushima accident

open access: yesРадиационная гигиена, 2016
Temporal variations of radionuclide levels in the epiphytic Usnea sp. lichens from the two islands Sakhalin and Kunashir, the Sakhalin region, Russia have been evaluated using the already published (2011–2013) and new experimental data (2015). A total of
