On electrokinetic soil radon mitigation: a first theoretical approach [PDF]
, 2020 Electrokinetics and its potential significance with regard to soil radon (222Rn) mitigation is investigated. Whereas the use of electrical fields for chemical soil decontamination, also known as electrokinetic remediation (ER), is a consolidate ...

Innate Immunocompetent hiPSC‐Derived Neurospheroids Capture Early CNS Responses to rAAV
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Knowledge of human CNS immune responses to AAV‐based gene therapies remains limited due to the lack of immune‐competent human models. Here, a hiPSC‐derived 3D neuroimmune platform integrating neurospheroids and microglia is established using stirred‐tank bioreactors.

Microfluidic Gratings for X‐Ray Phase Contrast Imaging
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This work establishes a new protocol for the fabrication of X‐ray gratings that exploits the advantages of microfluidics and enables a more inexpensive, faster, and scalable production process. These X‐ray devices are fundamental for implementing X‐ray phase contrast imaging (XPCI) in laboratory and clinical settings, yet their costly and complex ...

Measurement Error in Exposure Assessment: An Error Model and its Impact on Studies on Lung Cancer and Residential Radon Exposure in Germany [PDF]
, 2002 Case-control studies on lung cancer and residential radon exposure had been conducted in Germany. Relative risk estimates from primary analysis were now subject to accounting for uncertainties in radon exposure and in the most potent confounder smoking.

The bioindication of the radiation conditions
RUDN Journal of Ecology and Life Safety, 2008 Bioindication on the basis of accumulation ability of indicators is based on ability of some species to accumulate polluting substances, including radionuclidas, in the concentration exceeding their maintenance in other environments.

Probability of Causation for Lung Cancer After Exposure to Radon Progeny: A Comparison of Models and Data [PDF]
, 1994 The estimates of lung cancer risk due to the exposure to radon decay products are based on different data sets from underground mining and on different mathematical models that are used to fit the data.

Self‐Propelled HPB@Lip@AB Nanomotors Ameliorate Dry Eye Disease
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A self‐propelled HPB@Lip@AB nanomotor system is developed for dry eye disease (DED) therapy, facilitating rapid penetration across ocular surface barriers while integrating hydrogen therapy with multi‐enzyme‐like antioxidant activity. The nanoplatform restores mitochondrial function, suppresses oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis, and ...
