If there is a suspicion of increased radiation exposure, there are various ways to determine it. One possibility is biological dosimetry, which can be used to estimate the level of individual radiation exposure. In the video, Dr. Ulrike Kulka explains how radiation exposure in humans can be biologic
Recent research suggests that some exposure early on to peanut products might be helpful in reducing the risks of later peanut allergies. If you're allergic to peanuts, or have a child that's allergic, you'll know how serious a condition it is. For years, parents have been advised to keep infants
Wherever we are, we are exposed to radiation. Sometimes we feel them, often we don't even notice them. People have always lived with natural radiation. Radiation has an effect on people and their health. But how exactly does it work, when and how do you have to protect yourself? The Federal Office f

Our stationary probes measure the local dose rate at a specific location around the clock. So we always know how much it is radiating at that place. But in order to determine what is radiating there - i.e. which substances - we need a different kind of measurement. We carry them out at regular inter

Wi-Fi, power lines, smartphones – electromagnetic fields accompany us in everyday life. What do people think about the dangers? What do they want to say to those responsible? The Federal Office for Radiation Protection asked people about this in 2019. Here are their answers. Original: "Federal Offi
A high dose of radiation can damage the human organism or even lead to acute illnesses. Even years or decades later, so-called stochastic radiation effects can occur, which can often result in cancer. In the video, Dr. Maria Schnelzer explains how radiation affects humans and explains the health con
How do you work out how safe or dangerous a chemical or some other substance is? This week's Risk Bites takes a look at chemical safety, and estimating health risk from chemical exposure. This week's Risk Bites team: David Faulkner (post-production) Andrew Maynard (all the other stuff) Risk Bite
