Beyond two-stage models for lung carcinogenesis in the Mayak workers: Implications for Plutonium risk

open access: yes, 2015
Mechanistic multi-stage models are used to analyze lung-cancer mortality after Plutonium exposure in the Mayak-workers cohort, with follow-up until 2008.

4D‐Printable Poly(Thio)urethane Photoresins With Reactive Oxygen Species Responsiveness and Anti‐Inflammatory Functionality

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces UV‐curable poly(thio)urethane (PSU) thermosets as 4D printable scaffolds responsive to oxidative stress. PSU networks with 100 wt.% polypropylene glycol (PPG) effectively suppress inflammatory markers in microglial cells to basal values.

Porous Coatings by Vapor Sublimation and Deposition for Molecular Channeling and Filtration in an Interstitial Fluid Microfiltration Device

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A vapor‐based porous coating applied within nitinol tubes demonstrated complete suppression of cellular and tissue ingrowth, overcoming a major limitation of implantable interstitial fluid collection devices. Molecular channeling and diffusion are analyzed with probe molecules, showing reliable transport in vitro and in vivo. The coating also achieved >

Assessing the applicability of a special model of plutonium behavior in presence of chelates in cases of wound intake of industrial compounds of plutonium in the FSUE Mayak PA workers

open access: yesРадиационная гигиена
In cases of intake of higher levels of plutonium, a chelate diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid is used to enhance the elimination and reduce deposition rate in the organs of major deposit in the form of calcium compound Ca-DTPA (pentacinum). To interpret

Nuclear forensics using gamma-ray spectroscopy

open access: yes, 2016
Much of George Dracoulis's research career was devoted to utilizing gamma-ray spectroscopy in fundamental studies in nuclear physics. This same technology is useful in a wide range of applications in the area of nuclear forensics.

An imaging neutron/gamma-ray spectrometer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present the test results of a neutron/gamma-ray imaging spectrometer for the identification and location of radioactive and special nuclear materials. Radioactive materials that could be fashioned into a radiation dispersal device typically emit gamma

A Hierarchically Structured, Stretchable, Anti‐Biofouling Encapsulation for Biodegradable Electronics

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A soft, stretchable, anti‐biofouling encapsulant is developed by integrating organosilicon nanowire networks with microstructured biodegradable elastomers. The hierarchical surface exhibits superhydrophobicity and enhances water barrier properties by 420% over pristine polymers, while preserving mechanical integrity.

Characterization of Microplastics in Human Gastric Cancer and Control Tissues and Analysis of Associated Genetic Features

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study characterizes the presence of microplastics in human normal gastric, para‐tumor, and gastric tumor tissue and confirms the association between microplastic exposure and lymph node metastasis in gastric cancer. This study explores the transcriptomic changes induced by microplastic exposure, laying the foundation for further investigation into

Research and application of plutonium inventory monitoring system for solution systems

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Nuclear Reactor Design and Technology
In order to monitor the plutonium inventory of the solution system, the “point model” equations originated from the nuclear safeguard for plutonium monitoring were improved to make it applicable to the solution system.

Multiconfigurational nature of 5f orbitals in uranium and plutonium intermetallics

open access: yes, 2012
Uranium and plutonium's 5f electrons are tenuously poised between strongly bonding with ligand spd-states and residing close to the nucleus. The unusual properties of these elements and their compounds (eg.
