Environmental Chemistry of Radionuclides : Open Questions and Perspectives
Environmental radiochemistry and radioecology have intended to assess the impact and inventory of very low levels of radionuclide in specific ecosystems. But ultra‐trace environmental levels of metallic radionuclides on the one hand, and heterogeneity on the other have up until now formed the bottleneck in our efforts to input speciation data in ...

Incidence trend for colorectal cancer in the cohort of workers exposed to ionizing radiation
Colorectal cancer is one of the most common malignant neoplasms. Main causes inducing this type of cancer are factors related to the life style and occupational exposures to chemical agents.

SUMMARY Rhizobiome confer stress tolerance to ruderal plants, yet their ability to alleviate stress in crops is widely debated, and the associated mechanisms are poorly understood. We monitored the drought tolerance of maize (Zea mays) as influenced by the cross‐inoculation of rhizobiota from a congeneric ruderal grass Andropogon virginicus (andropogon‐

Examining effects of rhizobacteria in relieving abiotic crop stresses using carbon‐11 radiotracing
Abstract In agriculture, plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) are increasingly used for reducing environmental stress‐related crop losses through mutualistic actions of these microorganisms, activating physiological and biochemical responses, building tolerances within their hosts.

The effects of ionizing radiation on domestic dogs: a review of the atomic bomb testing era
ABSTRACT Dogs were frequently employed as laboratory subjects during the era of atomic bomb testing (1950–1980), particularly in studies used to generate predictive data regarding the expected effects of accidental human occupational exposure to radiation.
