Chernobyl seed project. Advances in the identification of differentially abundant proteins in a radio-contaminated environment

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Plants have the ability to grow and successfully reproduce in radio-contaminated environments, which has been highlighted by nuclear accidents at Chernobyl (1986) and Fukushima (2011).

Fibroblasts from bank voles inhabiting Chernobyl have increased resistance against oxidative and DNA stresses

BMC Cell Biology, 2018
Background Elevated levels of environmental ionizing radiation can be a selective pressure for wildlife by producing reactive oxygen species and DNA damage. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms that are affected are not known. Results We isolated

Low dose ionising radiation produces too few ROS to directly affect antioxidant concentrations in cells [PDF]

, 2012
It has been hypothesized that radiation-induced oxidative stress is the mechanism for a wide range of negative impacts on biota living in radioactively contaminated areas around Chernobyl.

The Long-Term Effects of the Chernobyl Catastrophe on Subjective Well-Being and Mental Health [PDF]

This paper assesses the long-term subjective well-being and mental health toll of the Chernobyl disaster of 1986 in the general Ukrainian population and estimates the monetary differential necessary to compensate victims of the catastrophe.

Toes and hands of people exposed to radiation

, 1992
This slide is looking at some people who were exposed to the radiation. It is looking at toes and hands which are blistered from radiation damage. Apparently, this occurred in 1991 and 1992 from the area around Chernobyl.

New Concept of eHealth for Improving Medical Infrastructure around Chernobyl [PDF]

, 2005
The term "eHealth" refers to the use of digital data -transmitted, stored and retrieved electronically- in support of health care, both at local sites and at a distance.

Radioactive cloud movement for Chernobyl

, 1986
Again, from the Swedish report, shows the plot of where the air masses with radioactivity from Chernobyl moved. The first cloud, which is the upper cloud, moved over towards Sweden, then shifted back over and came back by the standard trade wind movement

Are passive smoking, air pollution and obesity a greater mortality risk than major radiation incidents? [PDF]

, 2007
Background Following a nuclear incident, the communication and perception of radiation risk becomes a (perhaps the) major public health issue. In response to such incidents it is therefore crucial to communicate radiation health risks in the context of ...
