Evaluation of meso-scale dispersion modelling for accidental release
A modelling system, PERLE, has been developed at Meteo-France, for the Crisis Meteorological Cell (CMC) of atmospheric accidental release, in case of emergency. Mesoscale meteorological fields are simulated by the nonhydrostatic MESO-NH model (8km and 2km resolution nested grids), that also supply an overview of the plume on a regional scale with an eulerian passive tracer. The dispersion model...
متن کاملRetrovirus infection strongly enhances scrapie infectivity release in cell culture.
Prion diseases are neurodegenerative disorders associated in most cases with the accumulation in the central nervous system of PrPSc (conformationally altered isoform of cellular prion protein (PrPC); Sc for scrapie), a partially protease-resistant isoform of the PrPC. PrPSc is thought to be the causative agent of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies. The mechanisms involved in the interce...
متن کاملExposure analysis of accidental release of mercury from compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs).
Mercury release after breakage of compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) has recently become an issue of public health concern, especially in the case of early life infants. Preliminary, screening type calculations have indicated that there is potential for increased intake of mercury vapor by inhalation after breakage of a CFL. Several experimental and computational studies have shown that, when mod...
متن کاملAssessment of the radiological situation resulted by the accidental release of fuel particles
Physical-and-chemical properties of Chernobyl hot particles (radionuclide and dispersal composition, nuclear fuel burn-up and radionuclides fractionation, composition of particle matrix etc.) including the fuel particles as specific form of Chernobyl radioactive fall-out were studied [!]• Attempt to reconstruct the conditions of the fuel particles (FP) formation during the accident was done [2,...
متن کاملCell Entry and Exit of Porcine Endogenous Retrovirus A: Receptors and Release Inhibitor
Following the discovery that porcine endogenous retrovirus (PERV) can infect human cells, the potential risk of a zoonotic infection by PERV has been a major obstacle in the xenotransplantation field. The aim of this thesis is to gain a better understanding of PERV biology, so as to help assess and reduce the risk of PERV zoonosis. PERV subgroup A can enter human cells through two human PERV-A ...
