Radiation
chemistry is a subdivision of nuclear
chemistry which is the investigation of the chemical impacts of radiation
on matter this is although different from radiochemistry
as no radioactivity should be available in the material which is chemically
changed by the radiation. An example is the conversion of water into hydrogen
gas and hydrogen peroxide. As ionizing
radiation travels through matter its energy is stored through interactions
with the electrons of the absorber. The result of interaction between the
radiation and the absorbing species is removal of an electron from an atom or molecular
bond to shape radicals and energized species. The radical species at that point
continue to respond with one another or with different molecules in their
region. It is the reactions of the radical species that are responsible for the
changes observed following irradiation of a chemical system.
Biochemistry
and Modern Applications is a peer reviewed Journal, with rapid publication
process. The topics like DNA
polymerases, Heterochromatin, Ribosome, Non-coding DNA, Cell
biology, Metabolism, Nutritional Biochemistry, Medicinal
Biochemistry and Hormonal Biochemistry are studied. This is not just limited
to above areas. The knowledge related to different biomolecules
and their mechanisms can be studied in the journal of Biochemistry and modern
applications. This journal provides an open access platform for the young
scientists and researchers to share their valuable information regarding the
biomolecules and their mechanism.
