The up-to-date event at the Japan Fukushima nuclear plant has raised concerns about nuclear awareness not only in Japan but also here in the U.S. Most Americans are not aware of radiation fallout and its potential long-term effects on human life. In fact, most people do not fully understand that confident radioactive particles that are produced from a nuclear disaster can trip thousands of miles and still be toxic to human life and the environment. So what are these radioactive particles produced from nuclear reactors and how do they work on us?
Radioactive particles produced from nuclear reactions, can be absorbed straight through inhalation and the skin, and depending on the length and intensity of exposure, can be deadly. Given a high-enough level of radiation exposure, it is potential to design serious healing conditions fluctuating from thyroid cancer, tumors, acute leukemia to eye diseases, reasoning disorders and even genome lesions. If the body sustains a immense dose of radiation within a very short time, then the results can be deadly within hours or days. The four most harmful radioactive particles to humans released by nuclear action are Iodine-131, Iodine-133, Cesium-137, and Strontium-90.
Potassium IOdide
The most imminent hazardous radioactive particle to humans is Iodine. Radioactive Iodine enters the body either by breathing or inhalation. Thyroid cancer can occur if there is prolong exposure to the radioisotopes Iodine-131 and Iodine-133. When any form of Iodine is inhaled it speedily travels straight through the body where it is suck in by the thyroid. There it is processed and then travels to other organs in the body. Potassium Iodide can block the absorption of radioactive Iodine and further the Iodide ion in Ki can bind to the isotopes, which can then be excreted from the body.
