FUNDAMENTAL AND APPLIED RADIATION CHEMISTRY RESEARCH
Oral
The development of new approaches to radiation stabilization and radiation processing in various fields should be essentially based on consideration of the efficiency and spatial selectivity of the radiation-induced events in complex molecular systems and polymers. In fact, as shown in a number of recent studies, the radiation chemistry of such systems may be controlled by rather subtle...

FUNDAMENTAL AND APPLIED RADIATION CHEMISTRY RESEARCH
Oral
Radiation effects on materials constitute a unique and often crucial feature in the nuclear industry. The effects can be either direct, due to radiation energy deposition in the material, or indirect, due radiation energy deposition in the surrounding media subsequently transferred to the material via chemical reactions. In the majority of nuclear technological systems such as nuclear...

RADIATION SYNTHESIS AND MODIFICATION OF MATERIALS
Oral
A sterile medical device is one that is free of viable microorganisms. This can be achieved through: a terminal sterilization process, sterilization of some components, a combination of chemical/physical sterilization and aseptic processing. The choice of a sterilization process and the Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) should be addressed early in the development of the product and process...

FUNDAMENTAL AND APPLIED RADIATION CHEMISTRY RESEARCH
Oral
Studies with biodegradable starch-based polymers have recently demonstrated that these materials have a wide range of properties, which make them suitable for use in several biomedical applications, ranging from bone plates and screws to drug delivery carriers and tissue engineering scaffolds. A novel non-toxic biodegradable starch based polymer was developed for use in tissue engineering...

FUNDAMENTAL AND APPLIED RADIATION CHEMISTRY RESEARCH
Oral
Radiation chemistry, a discipline involving study of chemical changes induced by ionising radiation, has been the subject of interest for both researchers and technologists. Extensive research carried over the last few decades has translated into applications in the areas of advanced materials, nuclear fuel cycle, radiotherapy, sterilisation, waste treatment, water purification...

FUNDAMENTAL AND APPLIED RADIATION CHEMISTRY RESEARCH
Oral
IAEA program on radiation and tissue banking is a major effort to establish and improve tissue banks in Member States (MS). It was originated in 1971 and became supported by IAEA’s Department of Technical cooperation in 1982. Until now, there are a number of running projects in this area coordinated by the Agency. Less known is that, apart from capacity building by the TC, IAEA’s Department of...
