21.6 Biological Effects of Radiation

21.6 Biological Effects of Radiation

  • Increased concerns over the effects of radioisotopes on biological systems have been caused by the increased use of radioisotopes.
    • High-energy particles are emitted by all radioactive nuclides.
    • Radiation can cause heating, break chemical bonds, or ionize molecule in living cells.
    • When radioactive emissions fragment or ionize, it is the most serious biological damage.
    • Nuclear decay reactions emit particles with higher energies than ordinary chemical bonds.
    • When these particles strike and penetrate matter, they produce ion and molecular fragments that are very reactive.
  • Damage to the DNA of cells can be caused by radiation.
    • The cells may divide in an uncontrollable manner if the damage is not repaired.
  • The lower-energy radiation is nonionizing and the higher-energy radiation is ionizing.
  • The energy absorbed from nonionizing radiation is equivalent to heating a sample.
    • Although biological systems are sensitive to heat, a large amount of nonionizing radiation is necessary before dangerous levels are reached.
    • Ionizing radiation may cause more severe damage by breaking bonds or removing electrons in biological molecule, disrupting their structure and function.
  • The hydroxyl radical has an unpaired electron.
    • This radical can cause damage to the molecule and disrupt the processes of the body.
  • Ionizing radiation can cause damage to a biomolecule by breaking its bonds or creating an H2O+ ion, which reacts with H2O to form a hydroxyl radical, which in turn reacts with the biomolecule.
  • The whole body can be harmed by radiation, as well as eggs and sperm.
    • The effects are more pronounced in cells that reproduce rapidly, such as the stomach lining, hair follicles, bone marrow, and embryos.
    • This is the reason why patients undergoing radiation therapy often feel sick to their stomach, lose hair, and so on, and why particular care must be taken when they are pregnant.
  • Different types of radiation have different abilities.
    • A sheet of paper or the top layer of skin cells can be used to stop alpha particles.
    • Alpha particle sources are not dangerous if outside the body, but they are hazardous if swallowed or breathed in.

21.6 Biological Effects of Radiation

  • Increased concerns over the effects of radioisotopes on biological systems have been caused by the increased use of radioisotopes.
    • High-energy particles are emitted by all radioactive nuclides.
    • Radiation can cause heating, break chemical bonds, or ionize molecule in living cells.
    • When radioactive emissions fragment or ionize, it is the most serious biological damage.
    • Nuclear decay reactions emit particles with higher energies than ordinary chemical bonds.
    • When these particles strike and penetrate matter, they produce ion and molecular fragments that are very reactive.
  • Damage to the DNA of cells can be caused by radiation.
    • The cells may divide in an uncontrollable manner if the damage is not repaired.
  • The lower-energy radiation is nonionizing and the higher-energy radiation is ionizing.
  • The energy absorbed from nonionizing radiation is equivalent to heating a sample.
    • Although biological systems are sensitive to heat, a large amount of nonionizing radiation is necessary before dangerous levels are reached.
    • Ionizing radiation may cause more severe damage by breaking bonds or removing electrons in biological molecule, disrupting their structure and function.
  • The hydroxyl radical has an unpaired electron.
    • This radical can cause damage to the molecule and disrupt the processes of the body.
  • Ionizing radiation can cause damage to a biomolecule by breaking its bonds or creating an H2O+ ion, which reacts with H2O to form a hydroxyl radical, which in turn reacts with the biomolecule.
  • The whole body can be harmed by radiation, as well as eggs and sperm.
    • The effects are more pronounced in cells that reproduce rapidly, such as the stomach lining, hair follicles, bone marrow, and embryos.
    • This is the reason why patients undergoing radiation therapy often feel sick to their stomach, lose hair, and so on, and why particular care must be taken when they are pregnant.
  • Different types of radiation have different abilities.
    • A sheet of paper or the top layer of skin cells can be used to stop alpha particles.
    • Alpha particle sources are not dangerous if outside the body, but they are hazardous if swallowed or breathed in.
    • A thin layer of metal stops the particles from passing through a hand or a thin layer of material.
    • The radiation can penetrate a thick layer of materials.
    • A small amount of high-energy radiation can be seen through a few feet of concrete.
  • Lead is one of the dense, high atomic number elements that can be used for shielding.
    • Some particles have no tendency to produce ionized particles, while other emissions have a tendency to cause ionized particles.
    • Alpha particles have more ionizing power than fast- moving neutrons, b particles, and g rays.

    • The risk of death from short-term exposure to tens of rems of radiation is 50%; a dose of 500 rems is estimated to cause the death of the victim within 30 days.
    • It is important to avoid unnecessary exposure to radiation because it can have a cumulative effect on the body during a person's lifetime.
    • Table 21.5 shows the health effects of shortterm exposure to radiation.
  • Exposure to ionizing radiation is impossible to avoid.
    • Cosmic radiation, rocks, medical procedures, consumer products, and even our own atoms are some of the natural sources of background radiation that we are exposed to.
