Abstract:We reviewed experimental models of ionizing radiation (IR) disclosure and the evidence obtainable in the medical literature on mechanisms of injury to living organisms. Traditional models are based on the theory of "stochastic breaks" in single or double stands of the DNA double helix. As the model started, high doses can cause flair lethal cell destruction by damaging both DNA strands, whereas low IR doses inherently damage single-strand DNA that is easily repaired. It causes destruction and does not result i… Show more
