This paper explores the mechanisms and risk factors of cataract formation in two high-risk groups: radiotherapy patients and astronauts. Despite differences in radiation exposure, both groups experience cataractogenesis through similar mechanisms, such as DNA damage and oxidative stress. Unique risk factors, such as microgravity for astronauts, are compared with the high-dose exposure of radiotherapy patients. …

Sample preparation is a crucial analytical tool that significantly contributes to the accuracy of analytical methods such as flame atomic absorption spectroscopy (FAAS), electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS), and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy. Therefore, analytical chemists focus on developing sample preparation methods to enhance the sensitivity of these technique measurements. To achieve this, …
