Towards a shared method to classify contaminated territories in the case of an accidental nuclear event: the PRIME project [PDF]

, 2008
The analysis of the management of the accidentally radioactive contaminated areas such as those around Chernobyl nuclear power plant highlights the fact that the current spatial classification methods hardly help in recovering proper use of the ...

Ecosystem uptake and transfer of Sellafield-derived radiocarbon (14C). Part 1. The Irish Sea [PDF]

, 2017
Ecosystem uptake and transfer processes of Sellafield-derived radiocarbon (14C) within the Irish Sea were examined. Highly variable activities in sediment, seawater and biota indicate complex 14C dispersal and uptake dynamics.

Positron Emission Tomography Imaging of Bacterial Infections With an Enterobactin Analog to Monitor Treatment Efficacy With a Catechol Antibiotic

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Synopsis. The [68Ga]GaIII‐TREN‐CAM radiochelate selectively accumulates in Gram‐negative sites of infection and noninvasively monitors treatment response a siderophore antibiotic. ABSTRACT Positron emission tomography (PET) is an emerging tool under clinical investigation for the detection of bacterial infections.

Radioactivity of soil in Croatia I: naturally occurring decay chains

Arhiv za Higijenu Rada i Toksikologiju, 2021
The assessment of environmental radioactivity much relies on radionuclide content in soil. This stems from the significant contribution of soil to both external and internal exposure to ionising radiation via direct emission of gamma radiation and soil ...

The consequences of a nearby supernova on the early Solar System [PDF]

, 2018
If the Sun was born in a relatively compact open cluster, it is quite likely that a massive (10MSun) star was nearby when it exploded in a supernova. The repercussions of a supernova can be rather profound, and the current Solar System may still bear the

Blood-brain barrier transport kinetics of NOTA-modified proteins : the somatropin case [PDF]

, 2020
BACKGROUND: Chemical modifications such as PEG, polyamine and radiolabeling on proteins can alter their pharmacokinetic behaviour and their blood-brain barrier (BBB) transport characteristics. NOTA, i.e. 1,4,7-triazacyclononane-1,4,7-triacetic acid, is a
