Analysis of Radioactive Isotope Concentrations at Various Locations after a Nuclear Disaster: Case Study of I-131, Cs-134, and Cs-137 in the Czech Republic

JRST: Jurnal Riset Sains dan Teknologi
Radioactive dispersal remains a major concern after a nuclear disaster. This study investigated the consistency of radioactive isotope concentrations (I-131, Cs-134, and Cs-137) in two cities in the Czech Republic - Prague and Usti - to determine whether

ERα–PADI4–CXCL8 Axis Drives MDSC‐Mediated Immune Evasion in Anaplastic Thyroid Carcinoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
MAPK‐driven ligand‐independent ERα activation drives PADI4 transcription and translation. This enzyme then modifies CXCL8 chemokines through citrullination, generating a potent chemoattractant gradient specifically for myeloid‐derived suppressor cells.

Purification of cerium, neodymium and gadolinium for low background experiments

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2014
Cerium, neodymium and gadolinium contain double beta active isotopes. The most interesting are 150Nd and 160Gd (promising for 0ν2β search), 136Ce (2β+ candidate with one of the highest Q2β). The main problem of compounds containing lanthanide elements is

Simulation study on radiation exposure of emergency medical responders from radioactively contaminated patients

Scientific Reports, 2021
Emergency medical responders (EMRs) who treat victims during a radiation emergency are at risk of radiation exposure. In this study, the exposure dose to EMRs treating hypothetically contaminated patients was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation, and

Galactokinase 1 Positively Regulates Mitochondrial Respiration by Phosphorylating TIMM13 as a Protein Kinase

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
GALK1 acts as a protein kinase beyond the phosphorylation of galactose. GALK1 phosphorylates TIMM13 at Y73 in the cytoplasm. This phosphorylation prevents premature oxidative folding of TIMM13 and ensures its entrance into the intermembrane space of mitochondrion, positively regulating mitochondrial respiration.

Additional contamination of shiitake mushrooms (Lentinula edodes) cultivated on bed-logs in an artificial environment

Journal of Wood Science
Radioactive cesium was released into the environment from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant of Tokyo Electric Power Company, which was damaged by the Great East Japan Earthquake. The shiitake industry suffered various damages as a result.

Peelable Nanocomposite Coatings: “Eco-Friendly” Tools for the Safe Removal of Radiopharmaceutical Spills or Accidental Contamination of Surfaces in General-Purpose Radioisotope Laboratories

Pharmaceutics, 2022
Radioactive materials are potentially harmful due to the radiation emitted by radionuclides and the risk of radioactive contamination. Despite strict compliance with safety protocols, contamination with radioactive materials is still possible. This paper

Radioactive ghosts

, 2020
"Radioactive Ghosts hopefully conveys the need to see nuclearism as absolutely central to the debates about the anthropocene or capitalocene. Radioactive contamination is, after all, arguably the most destructive footprint humans have left on the planet.

Self‐Healing Pd(II) Cage Metallogels for Iodine Capture in Water and Heterogeneous Photocatalysis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Two carbazole‐derived metal‐organic cages hierarchically self‐assemble into supramolecular metallogels that integrate autonomous self‐healing, reversible stimuli responsiveness, high‐capacity aqueous iodine capture, and visible‐light‐driven photocatalytic sulfide oxidation within a single multifunctional platform.
