Ionizing radiationWoody biomass is widely available around the world. Cellulose is the major structural component of woody biomass and is the most abundant polymer synthesized by nature, with hemicellulose and lignin being second and third. Despite this great abundance, woody biomass has seen limited ...
Radiation can have beneficial and harmful consequences, depending on its type, intensity, duration of exposure, and the sensitivity of the organism or material being exposed [51]. The details of the radiation types can be seen in Fig. 3. Sign in to download hi-res image Fig. 3. Different...
Mechanistic studies underlying these radiation-induced effects will be summarized in terms of DNA damage and genomic instability, telomere erosion, oxidative stress and inflammation, as well as cellular senescence and epigenetic alterations. Studies that can provide an integrated view of how aging process...

well as an irradiation device for non-ionizing radiation, in which the irregularly shaped fields, even on curved surfaces, can be imaged as precisely as possible, in terms of their edges, and the need for orienting the object relative to the radiation source can be avoided, to a great ...
concerning the density of the tissue through which the ionizing radiation has passed, can either be a function of a single measurement of the ionizing radiation flux, or can be the result of combining a plurality of measurements (particularly when the method of the invention is applied to a ...
Also, Rachel Ray will probably eat you with her enormous mouth. Which isn’t “ionizing”, exactly. But it can’t be good.) That’s what ionizing radiation is — but what does itdo? Several bad things, and a couple of good. On the negative side, ionizing radiation can break chemical...
Ionizing radiation can induce mitophagy and stimulate metabolic activation within the mitochondria, providing energy for the DDR. The precise role of mitophagy in radiation-induced DNA damage, however, remains to be determined. Thus, we conducted a study to examine the impact of mitophagy on DNA ...
Decay [can] result in a neutron breaking apart to release a beta particle, and a beta particle can be an electron. But ionizing radiation causes electrons to be ejected. When we speak of ionizing radiation is it the same radiation we speak of when it comes to ionization energy? In biology...
CD4+ regulatory T cells can directly inhibit cytotoxic T cell activity and these cells can be recruited, or induced, by cancer cells allowing escape from immune attack. The use of ionizing radiation as a treatment for cancer has been shown to enhance anti-tumor immunity by several mechanisms ...
