Risk of lung cancer mortality in nuclear workers from internal exposure to alpha particle-emitting radionuclides [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Carcinogenic risks of internal exposures to alpha-emitters (except radon) are poorly understood. Since exposure to alpha particles-particularly through inhalation-occurs in a range of settings, understanding consequent risks is a public ...

Ischemic heart disease in workers at Mayak PA: latency of incidence risk after radiation exposure. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
We present an updated analysis of incidence and mortality from atherosclerotic induced ischemic heart diseases in the cohort of workers at the Mayak Production Association (PA). This cohort constitutes one of the most important sources for the assessment

Multiannual Assessment of Quality of Plantago major L. Seed Progeny from Kyshtym Radiation Accident Area: Weather-Dependent Effects

Plants, 2023
The effects of low-dose radiation that are observed in plant populations in radioactively contaminated areas are variable. One of the reasons is the influence of fluctuating weather conditions and the interaction of radiation with weather factors.

Methylobacterium sp. 2A is a plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria that has the potential to improve potato crop yield under adverse conditions [PDF]

, 2020
A Gram-negative pink-pigmented bacillus (named 2A) was isolated from Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Desirée plants that were strikingly more developed, presented increased root hair density, and higher biomass than other potato lines of the same age.

Comparative analysis of inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and alpha spectrometry methods to measure plutonium activity in biosubstrates

Радиационная гигиена
Currently, the most common methods to measure the activity of transuranium elements in biological samples are alpha radiometry and alpha spectrometry. Of these, alpha spectrometry is the most sensitive and selective method.

Cardiovascular diseases related to ionizing radiation : the risk of low-dose exposure (Review) [PDF]

, 2016
Traditionally, non-cancer diseases are not considered as health risks following exposure to low doses of ionizing radiation. Indeed, non-cancer diseases are classified as deterministic tissue reactions, which are characterized by a threshold dose.
