Ionising radiation, such as gamma rays, X-rays and radioactive particles can cause cancer by damaging DNA. However, how this happens, or how many tumours are caused by radiationdamagehas not been known. Previous work on cancer had revealed that DNA damage often leaves a molecular fingerprint, ...

electrical power plants, or electrical weapons. Electrical power job also includes the study of medical and other applications of radiation, particularly ionising radiation, electrical safety, heat or thermodynamics transport, electrical fuel, or other related technology and the problems of electrical power...
A primary on-Earth driver is the internet. The International Telecommunication Union data suggests that 92% of North Americans have used the internet in the past three months, compared to 30% of Sub-Saharan Africans. Usage among the former is continuing to rise while in parallel there is ...

The majority of these are man-made and our bodies have had no time to adjust to them. About 60,000-70,000 synthetic chemicals are currently in use[3] and since the beginning of atomic age, background levels of radiation have increased substantially. We may be living longer, but many of...
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an established technique which over the years has made it possible for researchers and healthcare professionals to study biological phenomena in the body without using ionising radiation, for example X-rays. ...
It can be concluded that autoclave is discarded by most authors, except in 3D printing, which seems to be gaining relevance. Ionising radiation (gamma radiation and electron beam) can be effective as long as the dose is controlled to avoid severe changes. The HPGP and new scCO2seem to be...
