Background: Brain is the most important organ as it controls and co- ordinates all the activities of our body. Reports on neuroethological investigations in mice particularly associated with learning and memory after radiation exposure are very scanty. Hence, present investigation is an attempt to examine the effects of low dose tritiated water (HTO) acute exposure on adult Swiss albino mice in...

utilization of photodisintegration reaction of deuterium, 2h(?,n)1h, is a precise technique for determining the percentage of 2h in tritiated and natural water. the 23na(n,?)24na reaction is a suitable ?-source for producing the 2h(?,n)1h reaction. tehran research reactor was used as a neutron source for producing 24na isotopes. the bf3 detectors were used to detect the neutron emission of h2 c...

Irradiation of the mouse testes was carried out using internally distributed tritium from injected tritiated thymidine and tritiated water and also using external whole body irradiation with 200 kVp X-rays. The inability of intermediate spermatogonia to divide twice and produce resting primary spermatocytes was used as a criterion of biological damage and the following conclusions were reached:...

Wistar rats have continuously ingested tritiated food (48.1 kBq/g) or tritiated water (37.0 kBq/ml) from three weeks before mating of P0 through delivery of the F3 generation. An analysis of tissues at various ages during treatment shows that: (1) tritium incorporation into tissues of rats life-time exposed to tritiated food was on the average 3.53=0.38 times higher than after similar exposure ...

As part of the preparation and calibration of three new National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) tritiated-water radioactivity Standard Reference Materials (SRMs), the massic-activity (activity of the sample divided by the mass of the sample) ratios of all of the available NBS/NIST tritiated-water SRMs issued between 1954 and 1999 were measured using liquid-scintillation (LS) count...
