The Effects of Low Dose Radiation

New Aspects of Radiobiological Research Prompted by the Chernobyl Nuclear Disaster

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The papers collected in this book show the results of investigations performed by Russian scientists in the field of low dose irradiation action., which developed after the Chernobyl accident and studied its consequences. The main part of reviews and articles is devoted to the aspects of low dose effects on the human and animal genome and far post-irradiation consequences.
