Blood-based gene expression as a biodosimetry model for neuroblastoma patients treated with ¹³¹I-mIBG

Creator:

Edmondson, David A.

Abstract:

Internal dosimetry is challenging and relies on estimates using MIRD or ICRP biokinetic models. To address this, we looked at gene expression analysis in whole blood from radiotherapy patients. Patients with relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma who received ¹³¹I-mIBG at UCSF were used to correlate internal ionizing radiation (IR) dose with...

Examination of uranium uptake by root vegetables and consequences for human consumption

Creator:

AlZahrani, Abdullah Bakheet

Abstract:

Uranium is the most common radionuclide that found in the nature. It is a radionuclide with a very low specific activity. There is limited data on plan uptake of uranium. This research was to determine the plant uptake of uranium, calculate the concentration ratio, and estimate the dose from eating...

Foliar interception and uptake of ³⁶Cl by crops

Creator:

Bytwerk, David Paul

Abstract:

Greenhouse studies were conducted to determine interception, absorption, and translocation values for foliar applied ³⁶Cl. Foliar interception and uptake of contaminated irrigation water by crops is a major pathway for the transport of radionuclides to human beings in scenarios relevant to the waste disposal community. Performance assessments of many repositories...
