• 2009:24 UV-radiation induced disease – roles of UVA and UVB

  There is a large uncertainty concerning the impact of UVA and UVB radiation on the skin and eye. For example, UVA radiation used to be considered low risk since it was believed that DNA damage could only be caused by UVB radiation. However, recent studies show that UVA and UVB can give rise to similar DNA damages in human skin. Because of the potentially greater exposure to UVA while using...

• 2008:12 Recent Research on EMF and Health Risks. Fifth annual report from SSI’s Independent Expert Group on Electromagnetic Fields, 2007

  The report for 2007 is divided into four different frequency fields: static fields, extremely low frequency fields (ELF), intermediate fields (IF) and radiofrequency fields (RF). Recent volunteer studies have shown that movement in very strong static magnetic fields (>1T, used in magnetic resonance imaging) can induce electrical fields in the body and sensations of vertigo in some people and...

• 2008:09 The Generalised Ecosystem Modelling Approach in radiological assessment

  An independent modelling capability is required by SSI in order to evaluate dose assessments carried out in Sweden by, amongst others, SKB. The main focus is the evaluation of the long-term radiological safety of radioactive waste repositories for both spent fuel and low-level radioactive waste. To meet the requirement for an independent modelling tool for use in biosphere dose assessments,...
