Harnessing the nonthermal effects of ultrasound for cancer treatment: From mechanisms to applications

open access: yesSmart Molecules, EarlyView.
Nonthermal ultrasound transforms acoustic energy into diverse therapeutic bioeffects through cavitation, mechanical stimulation, and physicochemical activation. This review discusses how acoustic parameters, biological mechanisms, and responsive materials interact to influence nonthermal ultrasound‐enabled cancer therapies. Mechanism‐guided engineering

PbS Nanodots for Ultraviolet Radiation Dosimetry

open access: yes
Lead sulfide (PbS) nanodots in Zirconia (ZrO2) thin film matrix (ZrO2:PbS films) were investigated for UV radiation dosimetry purposes. Samples were fabricated using sol-gel technique.

Integration of external and internal dosimetry in Switzerland

open access: yes, 2007
Individual monitoring regulations in Switzerland are based on the ICRP60 recommendations. The annual limit of 20 mSv for the effective dose applies to the sum of external and internal radiation.

Microplastics and the Endocrine–Metabolic Interface: Novel Diagnostic Tools Targeting Thyroid–Adipose Axis

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microplastics (MPs) have been identified as major environmental contaminants that can affect organisms directly and act as carriers of particles and chemical additives, thereby aggravating endocrine networks that coordinate metabolic homeostasis.

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Thermoluminescent pellets of MgB4O7:Dy evaluated for neutron dosimetry

open access: yes, 2013
To ensure the safe use of ionizing radiation, thermoluminescent crystals (TL) are extensively used as passive dosimeters (TLD). However, a limited number of TL phosphors, especially for neutron dosimetry, are available.

Possibilities of using human teeth for retrospective dosimetry: Analysis of the Techa river data

open access: yes, 2007
Different methods for utilising teeth were applied for the reconstruction of internal and external doses for the population of the Techa riverside area contaminated as a result of radioactive releases from the Mayak plutonium-production facility ...
