BIOLOGICAL MARKERS OF EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL EXPOSURE IN SHELTER CONSTRUCTION WORKERS: A 13-YEAR EXPERIENCE.

Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the cellular, molecular, genetic and non-invasive functional biomarkers of occupational irradiation in workers exposed to a combination of external gamma-radiation and incorporation of transuranium elements.

Results: A study was performed in 688 radiation workers of Shelter object conversion into a safe system with mean shift dose of external exposure of 26.06 mSv (range: 0.

Cases of the staff unaccounted exposure during the construction of the protective shell for a new confinement at the ChNPP site.

Objective: cytogenetic control of the staff radiation exposure level during the construction of the protective shell for a new confinement at the ChNPP site.

Materials And Methods: A cytogenetic examination was carried out for 32 staff persons from the contracting organ izations involved into construction of the protective shell for a new confinement. Additionally, for the goal of com parison, 28 persons who did not have professional contacts with the radiation factors were inspected.

Oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria of small-intestinal enterocytes at chronic and single exposure to low power ionizing radiation.

Objective - to investigate the intensity of oxidation and phosphorylation processes in the small intestine enterocytes mitochondria of the rats under chronic and single exposure to ionizing radiation of low power. Materials and methods. The single irradiation of the rats with X-rays was performed using the RUM-17 equipment (at the dose of 0.

Cytogenetic indices in blood lymphocites of individuals from the staff working on new confinement buildining in Chornobyl NPP zone.

Objective. Сytogenetic indication of possible exposure of contracting staff individuals, performing work on dismantling the ventilation pipe of "Shelter" object of Chornobyl NPP (ShO). Materials and methods.

[Cytochrome P450 2E1 expression in mice liver after exposure to continuous and acute gamma-radiation].

The effect of continuous low-intensity and acute high-intensity ionizing radiation in low and high doses on expression of cytochrome P450 2El (1.14.14.
