High dose ionizing radiation (IR) induces potent toxic cell effects mediated by either direct DNA damage or the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). IR-induced modulations in multiple biological processes have been proposed to be partly regulated by radiosensitive microRNA (miRNA). In order...
Over a spare weekend, I built myself a Cloud Chamber – a device that allows you to visualize ionizing radiation from radioactive sources and from the natural environment around you. With a cloud chamber, you can witness trails of condensed isopropyl alcohol vapor the follow the paths of ioniz...
The use of ionizing radiation processing technologies has proven to be one of the most versatile ways to prepare a wide range of membranes with specific tailored functionalities, thus enabling them to be used in a variety of industrial, environmental, and biological applications. The general principl...

radiation resistance; oral squamous cell carcinoma; copy number variation; genome instability; DNA repair1. Introduction Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the sixth most common cancer worldwide. A recent estimation of the annual incidence of cancer of the oral cavity and pharynx (Tongue, ...
even considering the access to every RF emitter’s datasheet, the determination of maximum exposure points from them would not be assured: the interaction between the antenna and ceiling features usually generates some distortion in the radiation diagram. Therefore, the most accurate way to find pea...
