This paper discusses the clinical applications of electron spin resonance (ESR) dosimetry
focusing on the ESR/alanine system. A review of few past studies in this area is presented …

This work consists of a first investigation of materials that could be used as ESR dosimeters
with doses up to 5 Gy aiming possible applications that would include retrospective …

Purpose To perform a systematic investigation of the energy dependence of alanine and
lilthium formate EPR dosimeters for medium energy x rays. Methods Lithium formate and …

Radiation dose assessment is essential for several medical treatments and diagnostic
procedures. In this context, nanotechnology has been used in the development of improved …

Silver/alanine nanocomposites with varying mass percentage of silver have been produced.
The size of the silver nanoparticles seems to drive the formation of the nanocomposite …

Objective. The radiation response of alanine is very well characterized in the MV photon
energy range where it can be used to determine the dose delivered with an accuracy better …

The dose-to-water energy dependence may be defined as the dosimeter reading per
absorbed dose to water for a given radiation beam relative to that for 60Co γ rays. The …

Gold nanoparticles have been extensively used to increase the sensitivity of radiation
dosimeters. In this work, nanocomposites of alanine (Ala), 2-methylalanine (2MA) …

The potential use of alanine for the production of nanoparticles is presented here for the first
time. Silver nanoparticles were synthesized using a simple green method, namely the …

Abstract This article describes Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) response measurements of
Kodak BioMax alanine films exposed to low-energy X-rays from a Cu-target tube operating …
