Radiation effects on development

Birth Defects Research Part C: Embryo Today: Reviews, 2007
AbstractIt has been widely reported that prenatal exposure to ionizing radiation can interfere with embryonic and fetal development, depending on dose and gestational age in which exposure occurs. According to several studies on animal models, different well‐defined stages during prenatal life can be distinguished in relation to teratogenic effects ...

Radiation effects in space

Advances in Space Research, 1986
The radiation protection guidelines of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) are under review by Scientific Committee 75 of the National Council Protection and Measurements. The re-evaluation of the current guidelines is necessary, first, because of the increase in information about radiation risks since 1970 when the original ...

Effect of Radiation on Bone

Journal of Dental Research, 1972
Rats subjected to 600 R total body radiation were studied. Changes in the epiphyseal cartilage were examined from the morphologic and enzymatic aspects, and were correlated with changes in the marrow contents and underlying bone. Changes noted were specific for radiation damage and were not caused by nutritional deficiencies.

Radiation effects in pectins

The International Journal of Applied Radiation and Isotopes, 1966
Abstract Irradiation of pectins by γ-rays causes the decomposition of molecules, which is observed as an extensive decrease of the specific viscosity of the solutions. The molecular weight also decreases by a factor in the range of 10 2 . The decomposition is intensified when solutions of pectin in water are irradiated.

The Paradox of Radiation's Effects

Science, 2005
Paradoxes are very often indicative of our inadequate insight into natural phenomena rather than being features of the phenomena themselves. C. Dissanayake's description of the intimate entanglement of human health with mankind's local material basis (“Of stones and health: medical geology in ...

The biological effects of radiation

International Journal of Risk and Safety in Medicine, 1993
Nuclear medicine offers many diagnostic possibilities for which there are no adequate alternatives. The growing contribution of nuclear procedures to diagnostic medicine, however, has an additional effect: the radiation on normal tissues. Accurate estimations of the radiation dose and the related risks is required to weigh the advantages against the ...

Effects of Ultraviolet Radiation

Medical Clinics of North America, 1990
Ultraviolet radiation from high-intensity sources has well-known acute effects on the eye and skin, consisting primarily of photokeratoconjunctivitis and sunburn, which are enhanced in the presence of photosensitizing agents. Long-term elevated exposure to low-level ultraviolet radiation is also responsible for an increased risk of squamous- and basal ...

Effects of Radiation on Bone

Current Osteoporosis Reports, 2013
Ionizing radiation produces its deleterious biologic effects by both direct (DNA strand breaks) and indirect processes (formation of free oxygen radicals). Mitotically active cells are more susceptible to the detrimental effects of ionizing radiation.

Effects of Radiations on the Heart

The British Journal of Radiology, 1960
A clinical and electrocardiographic study of the effects of radiations on the heart is prefaced by a critical review of the clinical and experimental literature. Part I. General review Pathological evidence both from man and from experimental animals indicated the inherent radiosensitivity of the heart to be low; structural changes were described in ...
