Biological Dosimetry ozradonc.wikidot.com nucleus.iaea.org
"Worldwide there is a strong increment in the application of nuclear technologies, especially in the fields of electrical power/energy management, in the field of research, and in human health. In spite of strict regulations and safety measures, radiation/nuclear accidents or unplanned radiation exposures may occur. In the event of a radiation/nuclear emergency, biological dosimetry is essential for timely determination of the radiation dose to the exposed individuals (i.e. exposed workers and general public).

Biological dosimetry implies different cytogentic assays (including dicentric-, micronuclei-, premature chromosome condensation-assay, and fluorescent in situ hybridization) to define the frequency of chromosomal alterations, and is used to estimate the absorbed dose in the exposed individual. Cytogenetic dosimetry is recognized as a valuable dose assessment method which fills a gap in dosimetric technology, particularly when there are difficulties in interpreting the data, in cases where there is reason to believe that persons not wearing dosimeters have been exposed to radiation, in cases of claims for compensation for radiation injuries that are not supported by unequivocal dosimetric evidence, or in cases of exposure over an individual’s working lifetime.

Biological dosimetry can be applied irrespective of the scale of the emergency/accident. In case of small-scale accidents involving one or a few individuals only a few samples need to be examined, and in case of large accidents affecting large populations many individuals need to be screened. Information obtained with this technique may help to perform triage in radiation/nuclear mass casualty events."

Ex-PM Kan in interview
Former Japanese Prime Minister Naoto Kan speaks during an interview with Kyodo News in Tokyo on Sept. 16, 2011. Kan said he learned shortly after the nuclear crisis erupted at the Fukushima Daiichi power plant that around 30 million people in Tokyo and surrounding prefectures may have to be evacuated in a worst-case scenario.

Kan told Tokyo residents may have to evacuate due to nuclear crisis

TOKYO, Sept. 18, Kyodo

Former Prime Minister Naoto Kan said in a recent interview with Kyodo News that he learned shortly after the nuclear crisis erupted at the Fukushima Daiichi power plant that around 30 million people in Tokyo and surrounding prefectures may have to be evacuated in a worst-case scenario.

Kan said he contemplated the chaos that would have ensued if such a measure had been taken. ''It was a crucial moment when I wasn't sure whether Japan could continue to function as a state,'' he said.

After the March 11 earthquake and tsunami crippled the plant, Kan instructed several entities to simulate what would happen in a worst-case scenario and received assessments that people living in areas located 200 to 250 kilometers from the power plant, encompassing a large swath of Tokyo, would have to be evacuated. english.kyodonews.jp

Cesium detected in 4% of tested rice

Radioactive tests on rice have been completed in more than half of the Tohoku and Kanto regions, and radioactive cesium has been detected in 4 percent of the samples. But the highest level detected so far is about a quarter of the government's safety limit.

Based on the interim results, shipments of rice have started in municipalities in 15 prefectures.

A preliminary examination is conducted while the rice is still growing and another test is carried out after the harvest. Rice can only be shipped if the amounts of cesium in the post-harvest test are below the government-set safety limit of 500 becquerels per kilogram in all the locations within a municipality.

Preliminary tests have been completed in 7 prefectures, but not in Fukushima or Miyagi.

Radioactive cesium has been detected in 72 places so far, including 64 locations in Fukushima Prefecture, where the Fukushima Daiichi power plant is located. But the highest level detected was 136 becquerels per kilogram, which is about a quarter of the government's safety limit.

The main test is being conducted in 17 prefectures, and has been completed in more than half of them. Radioactive materials were detected in rice harvested in 22 locations. But the highest level detected so far is 101.6 becquerels per kilogram, or one fifth of the government's safety limit.

With the preliminary and main tests combined, the results are known for more than 60 percent of the test locations. Radioactive materials have been detected in 94 locations, or 4.3 percent of the total.

Shipments of rice have started in municipalities in 15 prefectures, including all 52 municipalities in Chiba Prefecture.

In Fukushima Prefecture, shipments of ordinary rice have started in 2 municipalities, and those of early-harvested rice in 20 municipalities.

@Edano very dicey with quakes at the moment isnt it
by elainekirk 9/18/2011 7:16:14 PM

Busby has taken his magic pill page down !!!!!!!
by elainekirk 9/18/2011 8:14:04 PM

fortunately I got a screenshot which is now with our foreign office to whom I have sent a request that they act on his claims here translate.googleusercontent.com to be a member of a number of (non existent) ukgov committees
by elainekirk 9/18/2011 8:20:27 PM

@elainekirk oh really. I am still able to access it, probably because I have it in my web browser cache. Saving it all and will do a screen shot of his domain name ownerships.
by lillymunster 9/18/2011 8:25:32 PM

the products page has evaporated.
by lillymunster 9/18/2011 8:27:36 PM

Got it! The dirty you know what took down the products page. I found a google cache version of it and have it saved. Nothing is ever gone from the internet.

@Elaine, how does that work in the UK, are people to fashion themselves as a "Dr" for a phd vs. MD, is there any different naming to show what one they are?
by lillymunster 9/18/2011 8:33:28 PM

@lillymunster no the number of people who can call themselves dr makes the title worthless . I had dealings with a real gov expert a couple of years back who was a professor , it turned out when I dug down that it was a 'title' endowed on him by the Institute of Education for a 2yr period.
by elainekirk 9/18/2011 8:37:04 PM

@elainekirk Thanks, There was some dust up here over a politician who was trying to fashion herself as "doctor" but only had a law degree Juris Doctor that doesn't give that kind of title and isn't a PHD. en.wikipedia.org
by lillymunster 9/18/2011 8:40:01 PM

@elainekirk are there drug laws in the UK that regulate selling supplements or drugs without saying what is in them? They were selling those pills from London and didn't say what was in them. They likely fell into the class of supplements.
by lillymunster 9/18/2011 8:40:55 PM

@lillymunster
nowadays drs don't use the title or use it with the relevant qualifications after their name
by elainekirk 9/18/2011 8:41:08 PM

@lillymunster the EU is/has been busy drawing up legislation making it illegal to even refer to vitamin pills as 'supplements' in reference to health benefits
by elainekirk 9/18/2011 8:42:41 PM

Eisen renewables are now following me on twitter :)
by elainekirk 9/18/2011 8:45:08 PM

@elainekirk I have both of Busby's web pages saved. We can put up screen shots or pages as proof as needed. I also grabbed a copy of each of his web domains. The labs one has the full address and contact of the lab in london. You mentioned he is claiming UK associations or endowments he doesn't have. I didn't catch what ones those are. I can write something up about this whole mess. I think we can get it out to the media if we push hard via twitter and I can see if some of my media contacts can pass it on.
by lillymunster 9/18/2011 8:48:25 PM

@lillymunster oo yes that would be good to have an article if you scroll he claims to be on a number of ukgov committees translate.googleusercontent.com
by elainekirk 9/18/2011 8:51:00 PM

@elainekirk ah. I take it he isn't. I know he was giving the impression he was from an official UK office when he showed up in Japan. Do you remember the name of his original organization?
by lillymunster 9/18/2011 8:52:55 PM

you will notice one says they are not associated with him, 2 are dead and the third is his ecrr Eupropean Committee on Radiation Risk www.euradcom.org which is NOT associated with the EU or UK they have distanced themselves from him
by elainekirk 9/18/2011 8:53:31 PM

@elainekirk that is the one the ECRR that sounds official. Do you know anything about his past activities before Japan? Was he a make a quick buck kind of guy?
by lillymunster 9/18/2011 8:58:03 PM

So CERRIE was just a short term project he was on.
by lillymunster 9/18/2011 9:00:05 PM

@lillymunster I dunno I need to go look into it if we are writing it up - the disclaimer is typical ukgov speak for 'ah we asked for input from this guy but he turns out to be off the rails so we will disassociate ourselves'
by elainekirk 9/18/2011 9:01:53 PM

@elainekirk Did CERRIE make a disclaimer? I might have missed it. I noticed what you likely saw that he is listing his ECRR as a UK govt. office. Jeez.
by lillymunster 9/18/2011 9:03:40 PM

www.cerrie.org I wiil go see if l/pool uni still recognise him
by elainekirk 9/18/2011 9:04:42 PM

He is gone from L/pool uni no mention of him remains
by elainekirk 9/18/2011 9:06:56 PM

@elainekirk Is that where he was a professor?
by lillymunster 9/18/2011 9:08:02 PM

no I was speaking of another chap when I said prof I was just saying titles in the uk are not always representing qualifications
by elainekirk 9/18/2011 9:09:26 PM

@lillymunster now this is good in a strange kinda way docs.google.com
by elainekirk 9/18/2011 9:09:39 PM

he sounds like a bloke who could do good if he forgot about money and fame and concentrated on fact but that ain't ever going to happen he has totally discredited himself
by elainekirk 9/18/2011 9:12:24 PM

The overblown claims, overstated credentials and doing things for a buck all just doesn't go over well. The mystery supplement people are supposed to give their kids? That is just really dodgy
by lillymunster 9/18/2011 9:18:45 PM

@lillymunster that is what I used to emphasise the urgency to the foreign office
by elainekirk 9/18/2011 9:26:46 PM

money changes people, it is in itself harmful .
by elainekirk 9/18/2011 9:28:23 PM

Hope they act on it. Maybe we keep getting our info together and post something Tues or Wed? We can try to get extra help passing the story around
by lillymunster 9/18/2011 9:29:01 PM

the overpriced mystery supplement thing is a dead giveaway on something being scammy or out for cash. See them frequently aimed at various chronic diseases. Then people find out the expensive supplement is something the could get cheap by buying a couple of things at a health food store.
