Description
Research conducted in the Department of EPR concerns the quantitative characteristics of stable free radicals generated in matter by ionizing radiation. In biological materials (tooth tissues, bones, nails, hair) retaining the EPR signal generated by radiation the measurement of signal intensity allows ex-vivo determinations of absorbed doses of ionizing radiation. This research technique is an important, complementary technique to other methods of biodosimetry.
