Can the incineration of Municipal Solid Waste pose occupational and environmental radiation hazards?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Occupational and Environment Safety, 2017
An evaluation of the incineration process of municipal solid waste is made for identifying potential radiation hazards. Sources of radiation considered are the radioactive materials wrongly eliminated into municipal waste (e.g., industrial and medical ...

Natural radionuclides in human hair.

open access: yes, 2012
Naturallyoccurringradionuclides ofterrestrialorigin,suchas 238U,235U, 226Ra,210poand 21OPb, are present to various degrees in all environmental media, including the human body. Like other pollutants, many natural radioactive substances also accumulate in

Nanobodies as next‐generation targeting platforms: From discovery technologies to translational biomedicine

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Nanobodies, derived from the variable domains of camelid heavy‐chain‐only antibodies, have emerged as transformative biomedical tools due to their nanoscale size, exceptional stability, and unique capacity to recognize cryptic epitopes. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the field, outlining the structural and biochemical features of ...

Farnesyltransferase Enables Modular Assembly of Dual‐Functional Nanobody Conjugates for in Vivo Imaging of Inflammation

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 42, 12 October 2026.
A modular farnesyltransferase‐based chemoenzymatic platform enables fast, site‐specific labeling of nanobodies for PET imaging of inflammation. CD11b‐targeted PET agents selectively image myeloid‐driven inflammation, while CD45‐targeted PET agents provide sensitive whole‐body immune mapping.

Nanomedicine applications in lymphoma: Advancing precision diagnostics, targeted therapeutics, and prospective developments

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Lymphoma is a group of blood cancers that can appear in lymph nodes, blood, bone marrow, spleen, liver, or the central nervous system, which makes drug delivery and disease monitoring difficult. This review summarizes how nanomedicine technologies may improve targeted treatment and imaging, while carefully separating approved or guideline‐supported ...

The Anthropocene and the End of Nuclear Disaster: Normalizing the Fukushima Nuclear Accident

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article places the concept of disaster in critical dialogue with that of the Anthropocene, which introduces new imaginaries that negatively affect the governance of crises like nuclear accidents. I argue that tropes surrounding the Anthropocene can depict certain events as apocalyptic calamities while also portraying other events as mere “

Natural attenuation of metals and radionuclides: Report from a workshop held by Sandia National Laboratories [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Natural attenuation is increasingly applied to remediate contaminated soils and ground waters. Roughly 25% of Superfund groundwater remedies in 1995 involved some type of monitored natural attenuation, compared to almost none 5 years ago.

Refining the timing of Middle Pleistocene (MIS 12 to MIS 6) ice advances into northern central Europe: sedimentological analysis and single‐grain luminescence dating of glaciotectonic complexes and tunnel‐valley fills

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
We summarize the current state of knowledge on the age of the Middle Pleistocene ice advances into northern central Europe and provide 25 new single‐grain feldspar luminescence ages of Elsterian and Saalian glacigenic sediments to constrain the age of the ice advances and their tentative correlation with marine isotope stages/substages.

Insurability under uncertainty: A technology‐readiness and safe‐by‐design framework for engineered nanomaterials

open access: yesRisk Management and Insurance Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Engineered nanomaterials promise transformative benefits across manufacturing, medicine, energy, and environmental remediation, yet they advance faster than the safety knowledge needed to price and transfer their hazards. The problem they pose runs deeper than measurable risk.
