متن کاملUltraviolet radiation dosimetry with radiochromic film.
Radiochromic film is tested for its broad-band response to ultraviolet (UV) B (290-320 nm) and A (320 nm400 nm), visible and infrared radiation produced by a solar simulator and examined for dosimetry in ultraviolet radiation. Results show that MD-55-2 radiochromic film in solar and fluorescent light sources responds almost exclusively to broad-band UVA radiation with negligible colouration fro...
متن کاملDevelopment of methemoglobin-based biological dosimetry in gamma–irradiated mice
Background: A new biological dosimeter based on methemoglobin level was developed in this study. Materials and Methods: Methemoglobin level in erythrocytes from mice subjected to &gamma rays from a 60Co source was detected using the methemoglobin kit. The dose range was from 0.5 to 8 Gy and the dose rate was 0.5 Gy/min. Results: The results demonstrate that methemoglobin level increases with in...
متن کاملStatistical Methods for Biological Dosimetry
Statistical methods most commonly employed at HPA for purposes of biological dosimetry by analysis of chromosomal aberrations in blood lymphocytes are reviewed and discussed together with worked examples. They serve to illustrate practical aspects of the techniques. A novel method of computation of dose and the corresponding 95% limits, taking into account both the Poisson derived uncertainties...
متن کاملBiological Dosimetry of Ionizing Radiation
A worsening of the accidental hazards linked to the use of ionizing radiation is currently being observed for four reasons. First, the increasing need for radiation sources in numerous industrial applications (food sterilization, construction, engineering...) leads to an increasing probability of loss of the sources or abnormal/unsuitable use and storage. Second, advances in medicine generate n...
