Chromosomal aberration analysis in lymphocytes from workers exposed to I-131 in nuclear medicine departments in Iran
In order to evaluate the cytogenetic effects of low doses of radiation by internal or external exposure to iodine-131, we analysed chromosomal aberrations (CA) in peripheral blood lymphocytes from 34 subjects working in the nuclear medicine departments in Iran. The studied groups consisted of 26 individuals (Group A) who were employed in these centres without any evidence of radiation exposure by ...

Protective effect of curcumin on γ-radiation-induced sister chromatid exchanges in human blood lymphocytes
The present work evaluates the radioprotective effect of curcumin on γ-radiation-induced genetic toxicity. The DNA damage was analysed by the frequencies of Sister Chromatid Exchanges (SCEs). Human lymphocytes were treated in vitro with 5.0 γg/ml of curcumin for 30 min at 37°C then exposed to 1, 2 and 4 Gy γ-radiation. The lymphocytes were cultured in (RPMI) 1640 tissue culture medium and ...

Nanobodies Definition, Structure, Advantages and Applications
What is a Nanobody?Nanobodies are the smallest functional single-domain antibodies known to be able to stably bind to antigens, and have unique structural and functional advantages. The molecular weight of nanobodies is only 12-15 kDa, which retains the antigen binding ability of traditional antibodies. However, nanobodies have higher solubility and stability, and have unique advantages in ...
