Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvaluation the Synergistic Effect of High Dose Radiation of Radioiodine on the Immune System Suppressed By CyclosporineMehrosadat Alavi, Mohammad Ali Okhovat, Kourosh Bamdad et al.Cyclosporine is an immunosuppressant drug and iodine-131 is the diagnostic and therapeutic radioisotope in nuclear medicine. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the synergistic effect of high-dose radiation of radioiodine on the suppression of the immune system of BALB/cmice after receiving cyclosporine. A total of 50 mice BALB/c were randomly divided into two groups (control and test). Then, 50 … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 28 Sep 2015 · 6,877 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRadiological Risks Assessment of Ogun State Drinking WaterJustina Ada Achuka, Usikalu Mojisola Rachael, Oyeyemi Kehinde DavidThe presence of radionuclides in water constitute health risk to man. The consumption of such water increases the likelihood of incurring cancer. Analysis will enhance the detection of significant radionuclides causing harm to the populace and stimulate remediation. This inferred the radioactivity measurements of twenty (20) well water samples from three industrial cities of Ogun State using Hyper Pure Germanium … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 5 · 18 May 2017 · 7,785 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPolyherbal EMSA ERITIN Blocks Nuclear Factor-Kappa B (NF-κB) and Proinflammatory Cytokines in Irradiated MiceYuyun Ika Christina, Mansur Ibrahim, Muhaimin Rifa’iRadiation therapy is commonly used in cancer treatment that produce deleterious effects, such as normal cell death (apoptotic or necrotic) and suppression of hematopoietic stem cells. This effect was caused by ion rays that can rise to high of free radical. The high of free radical trigger the inflammation of cells. EMSA ERITIN is medicinal herb used as preventative agents … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 29 May 2015 · 7,518 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Estimation of X-Radiation Output using Mathematic ModelSuchart Kothan, Montree TungjaiProblem statement: Diagnosis x-ray radiation safety is key in medical examination. The quantity of patient radiation doses is beneficial for radiation protection of the patient. It was proposed that the equation for estimating the output (milliReongent, mR) from x-ray machines. Approach: A was 0.5, 0.8 and 1.0 for single phase, three phases and high frequency x-ray machines, respectively. To compare … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 9 · 13 Aug 2011 · 7,753 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Total Ionizing Dose on Bipolar Junction TransistorChee Fuei Pien, Haider F. Abdul Amir, Saafie Salleh, Azali MuhammadProblem statement: The amount of ionizing radiation that Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT) devices encounter during their lifecycle degrades both of their functional and electrical parameter performances. The different radiation environments either in space, high energy physics experiments, nuclear environment or fabrication process as well as for standard terrestrial operation possess an impact on the devices. Approach: In this research, analytical … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,311 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNatural Activities of 238U, 232Th and 40K in Manganese OreH. A. Abel-GhanyProblem statement: Manganese ore is widely used in much industries. Such as ore contain natural radioactive nuclides at various concentrations. If this ore contain high concentrations of natural radioactive nuclides, workers handling them might be exposed to significant levels of radiation. Therefore it is important to determine the radioactive nuclides in this ore. Approach: The natural radionuclides (238U, 232Th and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,024 accessesView PDFCite
