Sažetak
The Project entitled “Novel biological and physical methods for triage in radiological and nuclear (R/N) emergencies” (BioPhyMeTRE) has been recently approved within the NATO Science for Peace and Security (SPS) Programme. The project focuses on innovative biological and physical dosimetry methods allowing a rapid screening/triage of potential victims by using inexpensive and user- friendly analytical procedures and devices. The proposed biological method combines the two most standardised biological dosimetry methods into a more exhaustive “two-in-one” assay allowing the simultaneous scoring of chromosome aberrations and micronuclei on the same slide, while the physical method focuses on the use of a low cost, portable mini photo-luminescence reader for the individual dose assessment by using personal objects.Both methods will be validated through the setup of calibration curves and inter- laboratory comparisons to verify their reliability for triage in R/N emergencies. Moreover, automation systems for the novel biological protocol will be evaluated. The biological and physical dosimetry methods proposed in “BioPhyMeTRE” project, once fully developed and validated, could represent useful tools for the categorization of subjects overexposed to ionising radiation in R/N emergencies. The project, coordinated by the Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development (ENEA) of Italy, involves the Institute of Radiation Safety and Ecology (IRSE) of National Nuclear centre of Kazakhstan, the National Health Institute (ISS) of Italy and Ruđer Bošković Institute (RBI) of Croatia.
