Abstract

Study of the effects of low background radiation on biological systems is a new field in radiation biology. Due to the availability of new experimental methods, studies of the problem of adaptation to low background radiation conditions entered an even more dynamic stage in 2015–2019. Genomic stability/variability during prolonged exposure to low background radiation conditions and the positive/negative effects of the absence of natural background radiation on living organisms are the most debated issues. The data obtained by different scientific teams do not allow obtaining a universal model explaining the observed events. This report discusses currently accumulated experimental data, requirements for work under conditions of low background radiation, and prospects of cooperation work between JINR and BNO INR RAS in carrying out biological experiments under unique conditions of the low-background laboratory DULB-4900.

低背景辐射的生物效应：Baksan中微子观测所INR RAS的低背景实验室DULB-4900的未来研究前景

摘要

低背景辐射对生物系统影响的研究是辐射生物学的新领域。由于有了新的实验方法，对低背景辐射条件适应性问题的研究在2015–2019年进入了更加动态的阶段。长期暴露于低背景辐射条件下的基因组稳定性/变异性以及缺乏自然背景辐射对活生物体的正/负效应是争议最大的问题。不同科研团队获得的数据不允许获得解释观察到的事件的通用模型。本报告讨论了当前积累的实验数据，低背景辐射条件下的工作要求，
