Journal of Environmental Radioactivity, 208-209, Article 106020. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jenvrad.2019.106020Radionuclide activity concentrations in food crops and wildlife are most often predicted using empirical concentration ratios (CRs). The CR approach is simple to apply and some data exist with which to parameterise models. However, the parameter is h...

New York, USA: Humana. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4939-9463-2_11During exposure of cells to acute high dose-rate ionizing radiation (IR), oxidants from the radiolysis of water can overwhelm antioxidant systems. Protecting flora from the effects of IR released from a nuclear industry of increasing global significa...
