The phenomenon has raised the concerns about the safety of an extended manned mission into deep space due to the high potential for exposure to high-LET radiation during space missions. Heavy ions such as 56Fe are main radiation sources in deep space, which could pose a significant hazard to space flight crews during and after missions. Since the testis is a radiosensitive organ, which may be susceptible...
Heavy ions have become potentially radiotherapeutic tools. However, studies of the effects on development of normal organs were limited. Using a zebrafish model, this study investigated the potential developmental toxicity and cell apoptosis rates in eyes exposed to carbon-ion irradiation.Zebrafish embryos at 12h post-fertilization (hpf) were irradiated using 12C6+ ion beams at doses of 2, 4, and...
