The aim of this paper is to present the recognition system of the education and training in the field of radioprotection based on the examination system and the software solutions adopted by the regulatory authority in Romania. The Romanian Radiation Protection system is in place since 1950, when the first nuclear research reactor was built and activities involving radioactive sources started t...

Tocopherol succinate (TS) has been shown to protect mice against acute radiation syndrome, however, its exact mechanism of action and its possible use in humans has not yet been evaluated. Our approach has been to test the radioprotectant properties of TS on CD34-positive stem cells from healthy volunteers. We hypothesize that a radioproteomics strategy can identify a drug-dependent, personaliz...

radiation damage is to a large extent caused by overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ros). radioprotectors are agents or substances that reduce the effects of radiation in healthy normal tissues while maintaining the sensitivity to radiation damage in tumor cells. radioprotectors are agents or substances that reduce the effects of radiation in healthy normal tissues while maintaining the ...

the radioprotective effects of vitamin c and famotidine were investigated using the micronucleus test for anticlastogenic and cell proliferation activity. various doses of vitamin c and famotidine were administered intraperitoneally 2 h before 2gy gamma irradiation to nmri adult male mice. frequency of micronuclei in 1000 pces (mnpces) were scored for each sample. cell proliferation ratio (pce/...

background: development of safe radioprotector is a challenging task. in this study radioprotective effect of sucrose has been demonstrated in calf thymus dna (ctdna). sucrose is a free radical scavenger and also acts as osmolyte and therefore can influence the water activity around dna and effects of radiation on dna. hoechst 33258 was used to probe the possible alteration in physicochemical p...
