Scattering of gamma radiation by air in the ambient environment using gamma ray spectrometry
Kuwait Journal of Science, 2023 The intensity of gamma radiation reduces as it traverses through matter. The gamma radiation from earth’s surface is attenuated by non-radioactive burden between the ground and the detector.

Effect of Gamma-Radiation on Weeds [PDF]
Nature, 1959 CONSIDERABLE data are now available on the radiosensitivity of cultivated plants1,2, but very little is known about the tolerance of wild species. We have investigated the doses of γ-radiation needed to prevent weed seeds from growing. The seeds were stored at 32 per cent relative humidity and irradiated in air with a range of doses from 0 to 100,000 ...

The ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy as guardians of the cellular proteome
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This Perspective covers the three principles governing the crosstalk between the ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy in cellular proteostasis: (1) a shared ubiquitin code routing substrates via shuttle factors or autophagy receptors; (2) spatial compartmentalization into phase‐separated degradation hubs and organelle‐specific modules (exemplified

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.
