In 2015, for the fifth consecutive time Bulgaria participated in the moss survey carried out in the framework of the UNECE ICP Vegetation (United Nations Economic Commission for Europe, International Coopeative Programme on Effects of Air Pollution on Natural Vegetation and Crops). Over the years, the areas studied included several 'environmental hotspots', one of which was a hazardous...

For many years, studies of biochemically active derivatives of carborane have been mainly continue due to the search for more efficient methods of boron delivery to tumor cells for boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT). This is an important work that continues to this day in many laboratories in the world. More recently, it became known that boron clusters have remarkable properties that can be...

In present work, 3-step separation scheme using ion-exchange chromatography of 111In purification is performed. 1 g of Sb target was irradiated with 600 MeV protons at 1 µA current for 3 hours at the Phasotron facility (DNLP JINR). The activity of desired radionuclide at EOB equaled 53 MBq//µAh. The separation factor at each step was estimated to be 10^3. Along with 111In purification,...

Radiotherapy, proton- and carbon-ion therapy, and boron neutron-capture therapy (BNCT) are among the treatment methods for head and neck tumors that are used in addition to surgery and chemotherapy. Of the former group, X-ray based radiotheraphy is the most commonly used.
Radiotherapy is based on irradiation of tumors with external beams of ionizing radiation. Its aim is to deliver the...

The search for new techniques and preparations modifying the radiosensitivity of different organisms' cells by immune system activity modulation is of immediate interest of radiation biology. A promising approach is studying the modifying influence of lipopolysaccharides and their derivatives that are widely used in biomedical research and pharmacology on the realization of radiation-induced...

There is significant evidence that, in living systems, the overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitrogen species (RNS) can damage DNA, proteins, cellular membranes and leads to tissue dysfunction. Ionizing radiation is a strong inducer of ROS and RNS. The SOD-mimetic TEMPOL and nitric oxide scavenger cPTIO were found to detoxify efficiently ROS and RNS, correspondingly,...
