Ionizing radiation exposure results in the activation of several tyrosine kinase receptors that participate in radiation-induced DNA damage response and radioresistance. We previously showed that ...

If you didn’t know, OSHA is working to help protect employees who are exposed to ionizing radiation as an effect of their job environments. Check out the OSHA ionizing radiation page for information ...

Written by Prof. Renald Blundell and Dr Jean Claude Grech Ionizing radiation is a form of energy released by atoms in the form of electromagnetic waves such as gamma, x-rays or particles such as ...

In the upper atmosphere, ozone gas helps shield us from damaging ultraviolet rays, but near ground level ozone is an irritant that can worsen asthma and decrease lung function. While most indoor ozone ...

Population sizes of bank voles are lower in the areas where radiation level in the environment is increased. In her dissertation at the University of Jyväskylä Kati Kivisaari studied the effects of ...

When electromagnetic radiation is ionizing, it breaks the atomic bond and creates ions, which are atoms and molecules with fewer electrons or a greater number of electrons than they normally have.

WASHINGTON -- A preponderance of scientific evidence shows that even low doses of ionizing radiation, such as gamma rays and X-rays, are likely to pose some risk of adverse health effects, says a new ...

Italian kitchen-maker Snaidero has teamed up with Italian appliance maker Falmec to create an island range hood that boasts air-ionizing technology. Instead of simply acting as an exhaust fan to draw ...
