Time for Radiation Regulation to Evolve

by Mark Miller | Sep 24, 2019 | Hormesis, LNT Hypothesis

Ulsh-Calabrese 2019 It is well past time for our radiation regulation philosophy to evolve. The first steps are to unshackle ourselves from the LNT model that traps us in the past, and to begin developing a radiation regulatory strategy that reflects modern knowledge...

Linear No-threshold (LNT) vs. Hormesis Paradigms, Assumptions, and Mathematical Conventions that Bias the Conclusions in Favor of LNT and Against hormesis

Stimulation of antioxidant machinery in rats by low dose ionizing radiation: a concept of radiation hormesis. Sharma S1, Singla N, Chadha VD, Dhawan DK. Author information Abstract OBJECTIVE: The concept of radiation hormesis has been the matter of discussion with regard to beneficial effects to biological systems from low doses of ionizing radiations. However, its molecular basis is not well understood till now and the present study is a step forward to elucidate how low levels of ionizing radiation prove beneficial for functioning of biological systems.
