Use of remix spent mixed fuel plutonium in the BN-1200 reactor [PDF]
The VVER-1000 thermal neutron reactor can operate on mixed uranium-plutonium fuel with a content of reactor-grade plutonium up to 5% with a 100% loaded core. In this case, plutonium burns up to 56% of odd isotopes.

A new approach to the recycling of spent nuclear fuel in thermal reactors within the REMIX concept [PDF]
A review of simulated nuclear fuel cycles with mixed uranium-plutonium fuel (REMIX) was carried out. The concept of REMIX fuel is one of the options for closing the nuclear fuel cycle (NFC), which makes it possible to recycle uranium and plutonium in ...

Targeting lung cancer through inhibition of checkpoint kinases
Inhibitors of checkpoint kinases ATR, Chk1 and Wee1 are currently being tested in preclinical and clinical trials. Here, we review the basic principles behind the use of such inhibitors as anticancer agents, and particularly discuss their potential for ...

Radiation characteristics of reactor grade platinum group metals [PDF]
The paper examines the radiation characteristics of noble platinum group metals (PGMs) extracted from spent nuclear fuel (SNF) of the VVER-1000 reactor. These are the so-called reactor-grade ruthenium, rhodium and palladium.

Solid-Phase Method for Differential Display of Genes Expressed in Hematopoietic Stem Cells
A solid-phase differential display method was designed to analyze differential gene expression in samples with low amounts of mRNA. The principle was based on using a biotinylated probe to capture the mRNA and priming both the first-strand synthesis and ...
