INTRODUCTION Radiations are energy in the form of waves or particles. They are of two forms‚ ionizing radiations and non-ionizing radiations. Ionizing radiations are radiations of short wavelength and high energy which causes atoms to ionize. Examples of ionizing radiations includes: x-rays‚ gamma rays‚ ultra violet radiation. Non-ionizing radiations are radiations of long wavelengths and low energy. Examples of non ionizing radiations includes infra-red rays and visible lights e.t.c Effects of ionizing

peroxide is incompatible with many substances that catalyse its decomposition‚ including most of the transition metals and their compounds. Common catalysts include manganese dioxide‚ silver‚ and platinum. The same reaction is catalysed by the enzyme catalase‚ found in the liver‚ whose main function in the body is the removal of toxic byproducts ofmetabolism and the reduction of oxidative stress. The decomposition occurs more rapidly in alkali‚ so acid is often added as a stabilizer. The liberation of
