“…In total 46 organizations from 27 countries participated in the RENEB ILC 2021. Several assays for biological dosimetry (DCA, CBMN, FISH, GE, yH2AX, PCC) and physical retrospective dosimetry (EPR, OSL, TL) were applied (Table 2) and the results for most of the assays are published in a number of papers in this special issue ( 26–31 ). Blood was irradiated in terms of dose in water and various different materials (electronic components and glass from mobile phones, watch glass and mini-biopsies of tooth enamel) were irradiated in terms of air kerma with 0, 1.2 and 3.5 Gy X-ray doses (240 kVp, 1 Gy/min, ∼75 keV, 13 mA, HVL = 0.63) at the Bundeswehr Institute of Radiobiology, Munich, Germany and sent to the participating laboratories.…”
