Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Radioactive pollution has become a very serious environmental problem today. For example, a large number of radionuclides leaked from the Fukushima accident in Japan have been retained in the environment for a long time. Radioactive pollution not only causes radiation to the environment (α,β,γ), but radionuclides can also enter the food chain through the biosphere, endangering human survival and health. Various kinds of radionuclides are considered important due to their interactions with biological tissues (plants, animals, fungi, bacteria). Therefore, it is pivotal to understand the migration and enrichment of radionuclides, as well as the relevant biological effects, particularly the corresponding molecular mechanisms and cell signal pathways involved in these biological processes.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following: enrichment of radionuclides in plants, animals, fungi, and bacteria. We hope the papers in this Special Issue will be of high value to scientists working in the field of biology enrichment of radionuclides. We look forward to receiving your valuable papers in the upcoming months.
