Radiocesium concentrations in the lichen-reindeer/caribou food chain: Before and after Chernobyl

Rangifer, 1986
This paper reviews historical concentrations of radiocesium (Cs-137) in the reindeer/caribou food chain in Alaska. These data, along with available kinetic models which describe the movement of radiocesium through the food chain, are used to predict ...

DNA Extracted From Aged Formalin‐Fixed Paraffin‐Embedded Specimens of Patients With Papillary Thyroid Carcinomas Can Be Used for Whole Exome Sequencing

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
We aimed to assess the quality of DNA extracted from long‐term stored FFPE specimens of patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma from three hospitals in Hiroshima and their applicability to whole exome sequencing. FFPE samples preserved for up to 55 years may be amenable to sequencing with increased read depth.

The Chernobyl Accident and its Consequences

Clinical Oncology, 2011
The accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant was the worst industrial accident of the last century that involved radiation. The unprecedented release of multiple different radioisotopes led to radioactive contamination of large areas surrounding the accident site.

Integrating Multiple Approaches to Reveal the Spatiotemporal Pattern of Soil Erosion in Mollisol Watershed

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although numerous prediction methods have been developed, scientific estimation of the spatiotemporal pattern of soil erosion at the watershed scale remains challenging. In this study, fallout radionuclides of 210Pbex and 137Cs were used to estimate average annual soil erosion and deposition in a Mollisol watershed in Northeast China ...

LOW AND MEAN RADIATION DOSES IMPACT ON THE CEREBRAL TRACTS STRUCTURE OF THE CHERNOBYL ACCIDENT LIQUIDATORS IN THE REMOTE PERIOD (BASED ON ROUTINE AND DIFFUSION-TENSOR MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING DATA)

Радиационная гигиена, 2018
To evaluate correlation between brain structural damages and radiation exposure level for the Chernobyl nuclear power plant accident liquidators, routine and diffusion tensor magnetic resonance imaging methods are efficient to visualize and evaluate ...

How to stay wild in a highly domesticated landscape? Spatiotemporal behaviour of wolves in Germany

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wild animals can adapt to the increasing presence of humans by either becoming accustomed to it or by avoiding humans by spatiotemporal separation. The return of the wolf to the German lowlands raised the opportunity to study wolf behaviour in one of the most densely populated and fragmented countries in Europe, in an area where topography offers no ...

Responsible Innovation: The Impact of Major Industrial Disasters and Gender in a Global South Context

Journal of Product Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Responsible innovation (RI) dynamics remain underexplored in Global South contexts, which have a high prevalence of micro‐ and small enterprises and are vulnerable to the devastating effects of industrial disasters. Only a few studies examine RI within such settings, where it is arguably needed most.

Coupling Responsible Innovation and Sustainable Business Model Innovation to Address Grand Challenges

Journal of Product Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Academic Abstract Innovations designed to address grand challenges within the social innovation sector can have unintended consequences, particularly where organizations pursue triple‐bottom‐line objectives under resource constraints. Yet research on coupling responsible innovation (RI) and sustainable business model innovation (SBMI) largely ...
