Biological Radiation Protection: A Protocol Manual

Více o knize

Focusing on the systematic design of experimental protocols, this manual serves as a comprehensive guide for screening radioprotective drugs. It is structured into seven sections, progressing from preliminary in vitro assays to advanced methods for evaluating drug efficacy against radiation damage. Key areas include antioxidant activity, protection of biomacromolecules, cell culture studies, DNA damage assessment, mitochondrial effects, and immune system radioprotection. This pioneering work in radiation biology provides researchers with essential protocols for confirming and classifying the radioprotective properties of compounds.
