Korean-specific iodine S values for use in internal dosimetry

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2023
The use of iodine S values derived using the International Commission Radiological Protection (ICRP) phantoms may introduce significant bias in internal dosimetry for Koreans due to anatomical variability.

Implications and Practical Applications of the Chemical Speciation of Iodine in the Biological Context

open access: yesFuture Pharmacology, 2022
Iodine is a highly reactive element with a single natural and stable isotopic form (127I). In the biosphere, it is one of the 30 essential elements for life, and its chemical speciation defines its availability and biological activities.

Iodine Behaviour During a Severe Accident in a Nuclear Power Plant

open access: yesCHIMIA, 2005
Iodine is a main fission product of the fuel generated during power operation in nuclear power plants (NPPs). A severe NPP accident can cause fuel, containing fission products (FPs), control rod assemblies and core structures to melt and then ...

Fate of the Iodine Radioisotopes in the Human and Estimation of the Radiation Exposure [PDF]

open access: yesHealth Physics, 1965
Fate of the iodine isotopes and resulting organ exposures have been studied using the four-compartment model proposed by BROWNELL to account for the metabolism of this element. Mathematical equations have been established for this model from biological data accepted in the human. They have been used to calculate the amounts of iodine-131 in the thyroid

Sorption efficiency of radioactive iodine compounds by nuclear-grade activated carbon - a review and processing of literature data

open access: yesFrontiers in Nuclear Engineering
The sorption properties of I2 and CH3I on activated carbon were reviewed. The dependence of the sorption capacity on activated carbon of iodine and methyl iodide in air or effluent gas on the sampling operating conditions (temperature, relative humidity,

Is a four-week hormone suspension necessary for thyroid remnant ablation in low and intermediate risk patients? A pilot study with quality-of-life assessment

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences, 2022
Radioiodine therapy (RIT) is a complementary treatment to total thyroidectomy in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) patients. High levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) are usually required in clinical practice to increase RIT efficacy. Suspension

High-pressure glass-ceramics for iodine nuclear waste immobilization: Preliminary experimental results

open access: yes, 2023
International audienceSeveral matrix types have been considered for the immobilization of iodine radioisotopes from which glass-ceramics represent a serious candidate; however, I-bearing glass-ceramics are challenging owing to the iodine volatility.

The effect of exposure on cattle thyroid after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Nuclear plant accidents can be a risk for thyroid cancer due to iodine radioisotopes. Near the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, cattle were exposed to radiation after the accident occurred in May 2011. Here we estimated the total radiation exposure
