IQ-FdUrd is potentially a prototype compound for new class of radiation-activated antitumor prodrugs that are useful for radiation treatment of hypoxic tumors.
In short, the two broad classes of radiation are unambiguously differentiated by their speed of propagation and corresponding presence or absence of rest mass.
By exploiting these changes, a class of transition radiation detector can be built which provides excellent energy resolution for heavier nuclei (Z≳3) over large ranges of particle energy.
8,5′-Cyclopurines, making up an important class of ionizing radiation-induced tandem DNA damage, are repaired only by nucleotide excision repair (NER).
To evaluate the influence of the radiative heat gain on the body temperature three classes of solar radiation were established, shade: <200 Wm−2, overcast sky: 200 500 Wm−2, and sunshine: >500 Wm−2.
Table 1 gives an overview of body temperature and environmental parameters for each measuring day and plant divided in three classes of solar radiation (<200 W m−2, 200 500 W m−2, >500 W m−2).
To evaluate the influence of the radiative heat gain on the body temperature, three classes of solar radiation were established: shade, <200 W m−2, overcast sky, 200 500 W m−2, and sunshine, >500 W m−2. The mean of all foraging bees on one blossom type was calculated and values were divided into the three radiation classes.
