Does occupational exposure to low-dose ionizing radiation induce cell membrane damage? [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Chronic exposure to low-dose radiation doses could be much more harmful than high, short-term doses because of lipid peroxidation initiated by free radicals.

Influence of occupational exposure to low-dose ionizing radiation on the plasma activity of superoxide dismutase and glutathione level [PDF]
Background/Aim. During exposure to low-level doses (LLD) of ionizing radiation (IR), the most of harmful effects are produced indirectly, through radiolysis of water and formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Ionization versus displacement damage effects in proton irradiated CMOS sensors manufactured in deep submicron process [PDF]
Proton irradiation effects have been studied on CMOS image sensors manufactured in a 0.18 μm technology dedicated to imaging. The ionizing dose and displacement damage effects were discriminated and localized thanks to 60Co irradiations and large ...

Positive correlation between micronuclei and necrosis of lymphocytes in medical personnel occupationally exposed to ionizing radiation [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Current radiation protection standards are based on premise that any radiation dose may result in detrimental health effects. The aim of this study was to evaluate extent of the DNA damages (measured by induction of micronuclei) and ...
