Doses from the consumption of Cardiff Bay flounder containing organically bound tritium.

TL;DR: It is proposed that a dose coefficient of 6 x 10(-11) Sv Bq(-1) should be applied to tritium in flounders from Cardiff Bay, and this dose coefficient is applied to all ingestion intakes by adults relating to this source of exposure, unless specific information is available showing that a significant proportion of the intake is HTO.
Journal ArticleDOI

The use of dose quantities in radiological protection: ICRP publication 147 Ann ICRP 50(1) 2021

TL;DR: The International Commission on Radiological Protection has recently published a report (ICRP Publication 147;Ann. ICRP50, 2021) on the use of dose quantities in radiological protection, under the same authorship as this Memorandum as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Flavonoid rich dark cocoa may improve fatigue in people with multiple sclerosis, yet has no effect on glycaemic response: An exploratory trial.

TL;DR: The results of this study support further trials to investigate the feasibility and efficacy of pure cocoa as a dietary supplement for fatigue in people with MS.
Journal ArticleDOI

In utero and neonatal sensitivity of ApcMin/+ mice to radiation-induced intestinal neoplasia.

TL;DR: The sensitivity of ApcMin/+ mice to the induction of intestinal tumours by radiation was shown to be in the order: 10 d Neonates >2 d neonates >35 d young adults >14 d fetus >7 d embryo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Doses and risks from tritiated water and environmental organically bound tritium.

TL;DR: This short review provides an explanation of the calculation and use of the ICRP protection quantities, equivalent and effective dose, including the simplifications introduced by using radiation and tissue weighting factors.
