The main purpose of this project is the establishment of biological dosimetry system in National Institute of Food & Drug Safety Evaluation (NIFDS), KFDA. Because we need to evaluate the exposed dose when radiation-related workers were overexposed. Additionally, because WHO try to establish 'Global Biodosimetries Network' to prepare for radiation emergency, NIFDS need to set up the worldwide leveled biodosimetry laboratory. Main aim of this project for technique setup of radiation biodosimetry system is consisted with (1) the establishment of a technique for acute radiation exposed workers, (2) the establishment of a technique for chronic radiation exposed workers, (3) the manual for experiments to detect both acute- and chronic-radiation exposure, (4) the preparedness of manpower supply and biodosimetry network plan against an unexpected radiation accident. For the efficient conduct of this project, several meetings and co-experiments were performed in NIFDS. Manuals for experiments to detect both acute- and chronic-radiation exposure were prepared. Additionally, the program of evaluation for radiation exposure was provided. As a results, during the performance of this project, laboratory for biological dosimetry in NIFDS was constructed and the preparedness of manpower for biological dosimetry was upgraded enough to involve 'Global Biodosimetries Network'.
