Thymineless death (TLD) is the rapid loss of viability in bacterial, yeast, and human cells starved of thymine. TLD is the mode of action of common anticancer drugs and some antibiotics. TLD in Escherichia coli is accompanied by blocked replication and chromosomal DNA loss and recent work identified activities of recombination protein RecA and the SOS DNA-damage response as causes of TLD. Here,...

Thermal quenching is described as a decrease in luminescence efficiency with increasing measurement temperature. Luminescence intensity decreases heating rates the presence of thermal quenching. In such case, rate to be used measurements becomes important. Lithium fluoride (LiF) type dosimeters have been widely radiation dosimetry for many years. this study, effect was investigated LiF:Mg,Ti (T...

The commonly used thermoluminescent dosimeter TLD-100 (Harshaw Chemical Company, Solon, OH) responds not only to photons and electrons, but also to neutrons that are produced during high-energy therapies. As a result, TLD-100 measurements outside of the treatment field are suspect when high-energy radiation is used. Although alternatives such as TLD-700 do not respond to neutrons, specialty dos...

<span>Using a camera to monitor an object or group of objects over time is the process detection. It can be used for variety things, including security and surveillance, video communication, traffic light detection (TLD), from compressed in public places. In recent times, tracking has become popular topic computer science particularly, data community, thanks usage deep learning (DL) artif...

Simulating talker-to-listener distance (TLD) in virtual audio environments requires mimicking natural changes in vocal effort. Studies have identified several acoustic parameters manipulated by talkers when varying vocal effort. However, no systematic study has investigated vocal effort variations due to TLD, under natural conditions, and their perceptual consequences. This work examined the fe...

A retrospective study aims to explore differences in spinopelvic sagittal alignment between thoracolumbar disc herniation (TLD) and lower lumbar disc herniation (LLD).A total of 185 patients included 26 with TLD and 129 with LLD and 30 asymptomatic volunteers in normal group (NG). Each individual took full spine X-ray to evaluate pelvic incidence (PI), pelvic tilt (PT), sacral slope (SS), lumba...

Thymineless death (TLD) is a classic and enigmatic phenomenon, documented in bacterial, yeast, and human cells, whereby cells lose viability rapidly when deprived of thymine. Despite its being the essential mode of action of important chemotherapeutic agents, and despite having been studied extensively for decades, the basic mechanisms of TLD have remained elusive. In Escherichia coli, several ...

The purpose of this paper is to test the appropriateness of OSL and electronic dosemeters to estimate eye lens doses at interventional cardiology environment. Using TLD as reference detectors, personal dose equivalent was measured in phantoms and during clinical procedures. For phantom measurements, OSL dose values resulted in an average difference of -15 % vs. TLD. Tests carried out with other...

Thermoluminescence dosimeters (TLD) are widely used to verify absorbed doses delivered from radiation therapy beams. Specifically, they are used by the Radiological Physics Center for mailed dosimetry for verification of therapy machine output. The effects of the random experimental uncertainties of various factors on dose calculations from TLD signals are examined, including: fading, dose resp...

In the present paper, we estimated backscattering factors for the TLD and active personal dosimeters using 662 keV gamma-ray photons on a PMMA surface, which are, for the TLD, 1.12; Dosicard, 1.116; DRD, 0.99; and Saphydose, 1.073, and on a water slab phantom surface; for the TLD, 1.115; Dosicard, 1.112; DRD, 1; and Saphydose, 1.059. The backscattering factor contribution for the Saphydose is n...
