  • Peer Appraisal of the Arrangements in the Republic of Armenia Regarding the Preparedness for Responding to a Radiation Emergency
    FINAL REPORT PEER APPRAISAL OF THE ARRANGEMENTS IN THE REPUBLIC OF ARMENIA REGARDING THE PREPAREDNESS FOR RESPONDING TO A RADIATION EMERGENCY 15-25 October, 2012 Yerevan, Armenia International Atomic Energy Agency ACKNOWLEDGEMENT The mission team would like to express its thanks to the Rescue Service of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of the Republic of Armenia and the Armenian Nuclear Regulatory Authority for their contribution towards organizing the mission as well as for the support and assistance received from its start to finish. The team gained access to all principal organizations and had a very positive experience with all counterparts met during the visits and discussions. We would like to thank them all, including those involved in important tasks regarding the organization of logistical support. FOREWORD Within the United Nations system, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has the statutory functions of establishing standards of safety for the protection of health against exposure to ionizing radiation, and of providing for the application of these standards. In addition, under the Convention on Assistance in the Case of a Nuclear Accident or Radiological Emergency (Assistance Convention) [1] the IAEA has a function, if requested, to assist Member States in preparing emergency arrangements for responding to nuclear accidents and radiological emergencies. In response to a request from the Armenian Nuclear Regulatory Authority (ANRA), the IAEA fielded an Emergency Preparedness Review (EPREV) mission to Armenia to conduct, in accordance with Article III of the IAEA Statute, a peer review of Armenian’s radiation emergency preparedness and response arrangements vis-à-vis the relevant IAEA standards.

  • An Application to Armenian Nuclear Power Plant
    Journal of Radiation Industry 9 (4) : 181~185 (2015) Technical Paper Phytomonitoring of the Genotoxicity of Environmental Pollutants: An Application to Armenian Nuclear Power Plant Jin Kyu Kim1,2,#,*, Rouben M. Aroutiounian3,#,*, Anna A. Nebish3 and Jin­Hong Kim1,2 1Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute, Jeongeup 56212, Korea 2University of Science and Technology, Daejeon 34113, Korea 3Yerevan State University, Yerevan 0025, Armenia Abstract - Today the biosafety evaluation, a common problem of vital importance, is based on internationally proved test-systems, standards and techniques. The paradigm of biosafety includes multidisciplinary approach, a combination of physical, chemical and biological tests to monitor the environmental level of pollutants and needs to be improved by modern approaches. The genetic risk of environmental pollutions has long been studied by many researchers. In this study, used was the known sensitive plant test-system, clones of plant Tradescantia (spiderwort) able to detect gene mutations (frequency of mutational events and formation of micronuclei) in combination with chemical and, in some instances, with radiological measurements. In addition, male gametophyte generation of fruit trees was applied as bioindicators of genotoxicity. The obtained results did not show any significant increase along with wind direction. As for the male gametophyte assay, the fertility of the investigated fruit-trees near to NPP did not significantly differ from that of the control point. The influence of the NPP on the male generative system of the investigated taxa of fruit trees for the investigated year was not revealed. The system described needs to be expanded by species of interest (human) as there is a difficulty to transfer the revealed dose correlations to humans.
