The balance between oxidative stress and antioxidant activity, which is a defense mechanism against oxidative stress, was investigated in the liver and bladder of wild Japanese macaques captured in Fukushima Prefecture. No significant induction of oxidative stress by exposure to environmental radionuclides after the Fukushima nuclear accident was observed, suggesting that the stress defense mechanism of the organism is activated in some organs.

Times Cited Count：5 Percentile：53.85(Nuclear Science & Technology)The relationship between the CO
radical intensity and the absorbed dose (dose response curve) of tooth enamel of Japanese macaque was observed by electron spin resonance and the detection limit of our system was estimated to be 33.5 mGy, which is comparable to the detection limit for human molar teeth. Using the dose response curve, external exposure dose for seven wild Japanese macaques captured in Fukushima prefecture were examined. The results suggest that the external exposure dose for the wild Japanese macaques were ranged between 45 mGy to 300 mGy.

It is necessary to develop the fast reactor core materials, which can achieve high-burnup operation improving safety and economical performance. Ferritic steels are expected to be good candidate core materials to achieve this objective because of their excellent void swelling resistance. Therefore, oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) ferritic steel and 11Cr-ferritic/martensitic steel (PNC-FMS) have been respectively developed for cladding and wrapper tube materials in Japan Atomic Energy Agency. In this study, the effects of fast neutron irradiation on mechanical properties and microstructure of 9Cr-and 12Cr-ODS steel claddings for fast reactor were investigated. Specimens were irradiated in the experimental fast reactor Joyo using the CMIR-6 at temperatures between 420 and 835
C to fast neutron doses ranging from 16 to 33 dpa. The post-irradiation ring tensile tests were carried out at irradiation temperatures.

A non-intrusive temperature sensing system is proposed. It is developed for temperature measurement of liquid sodium coolant in fast breeder reactor. Liquid sodium is used as coolant due to high heat flux density in the reactor core. In this paper, the results of our feasibility study by 2-dimensional numerical simulation, small size experimental test done by Japan Atomic Energy Agency Oarai Institute, and theoretical analysis are described. The basic principle of temperature measurement is resistant thermometry of liquid sodium. The resistivity of liquid sodium is quite lower than that of the stainless steel (SUS304), which is used in the pipe wall. The resistivity temperature coefficient of liquid sodium(0.337%/deg) is higher than that of stainless steel(0.0865%/deg). If we feed electric current perpendicular to the axis of flow pipe, the current penetrates the pipe wall and flow across the liquid. The current concentrates the liquid sodium, only small portion of the current flows along the pipe wall. The electric potential distribution is almost dominated by resistivity of sodium. The potential distribution can be measured along the out side of the pipe wall. The potential difference between two fixed points on the pipe wall indicates the resistivity of sodium So the sodium temperature can be measured by potential difference. Measurement accuracy of 
5C is obtained in experimental tests. Better estimation data are obtained by theoretical analysis using three dimensional model.

We have been developing an in-situ SEOP He neutron spin filter to apply it to pulsed neutron experiments at J-PARC/MLF. To introduce the He neutron spin filter into the instruments of the pulsed neutron facility such as J-PARC/MLF, it is important to make the system compact and stable, because the system is located inside thick and bulky radiation shields for high energy 
ray and neutrons. In this study, we have developed a compact laser optics with a volume holographic grating (VHG) element, and composed an in-situ SEOP He neutron spin filter. We have started to apply the He spin filer as an analyzer to polarized neutron small angle scattering and reflection measurements. A magnetic field imaging are also being tested with the two He neutron spin filter cells which are polarized by the ex-situ SEOP technique. In this paper, we report the design of our SEOP He neutron spin filter system and some results of the related polarized neutron beam experiments.

In order to investigate the influence on the oxidative stress status by the long-term exposure after the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear power plant (FNPP) accident, we analyzed oxidative stress markers in liver and bladder of wild Japanese macaques in the ex-evacuation zone. In liver, the concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA) in approximately 70% of the exposed group exceeded the average and SOD activity of the exposed group shifted toward lower within the range indicated in the control group. By contrast, alteration of MDA concentration and SOD activity in bladder was opposite to that shown in liver. We also found that oxidative stress markers changed in the same manner by external and internal exposure. Our data suggested that exposure to low dose/low dose-rate radiation following the FNPP accident may affect the sensitivity to oxidative stress by changing the activity of antioxidant enzymes.
