Radiation Induced Free Radicals in Alanine and Some Related Amino Acids. Electron Spin Resonance Studies.

Electron spin resonance and its applications

“…Perhaps the most not'eworthy case is glycyl glycine where the hydrogen is undoubtedly lost from a CH, group next to the nitrogen atom. It' appears (R'andolph 1961;Prydz and Henriksen 1961) that this pattern is followed in many derived proteins.…”

Radiation-induced radicals in different polymorphic modifications of d -mannitol: Structure, conformations and dosimetric implications

“…Our estimations show that the effective G values for the samples irradiated at room temperature to the dose of 5 kGy are 1.2, 1.3 and 1.7 for α, β and δ forms, respectively. These values are rather high (above 1 radical per 100 eV of absorbed energy), that is, even higher than that reported for alanine dosimeter [21]. It is worth noting that the yields for two stable forms (β and δ) are virtually the same.…”

Effect of Dose on Gamma Irradiation Induced Formation of Free Radicals in Freeze‐Dried Natural Actomyosin

“…of radicals will approach a maximum. This usually occurs at higher dose levels and has been observed as an asymptotic curve (Simic, 1978;Taub et al, 1978;Prydz and Henriksen, 1961;Uchiyama, 1979). The spectrometric g-value calculated for the major peak in Fig.…”
