Other species could absorb and regenerate with it, such as the [[Kastrian]]s ([[TV]]: ''[[The Hand of Fear (TV story)|The Hand of Fear]]'') and the [[Dalek]]s on [[Skaro]], whose evolution led to them becoming dependent on a constant supply of radiation. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Daleks (TV story)|The Daleks]]'') Following the Daleks' defeat in the [[Thal-Dalek battle]], the [[incubation level]] of the [[Dalek City]] was automatically sealed off with the [[Dalek Supreme (Return to Skaro)|Dalek Supreme]] and the gestating [[embryo]]s being placed in suspended animation. As a result of the decades that they spent in the radiation-free environment, the Daleks overcame their dependence on it. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Return to Skaro (audio story)|Return to Skaro]]'')

Nevertheless, radiation could still prove harmful to the Daleks. When "[[Rusty (Into the Dalek)|Rusty]]" was damaged, a crack in his power supply began leaking trionic radiation that began killing him and affected his mind, turning him into a "good Dalek." When the [[Twelfth Doctor]] stopped the radiation leak, Rusty immediately returned to normal. ([[TV]]: ''[[Into the Dalek (TV story)|Into the Dalek]]'')

([[TV]]: ''[[Into the Dalek (TV story)|Into the Dalek]]'') When on the planet [[Omnia]], the Daleks were forced to contend with [[vitanium]] radiation, forcing them to act either through emissaries or with specially shielded casings. The [[Sixth Doctor]] noted however that vitanium radiation was harmless to nearly all other forms of organic life. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Emissary of the Daleks (audio story)|Emissary of the Daleks]]'')


Some organisms could withstand large amounts of radiation, such as the [[Foamasi]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Leisure Hive (TV story)|The Leisure Hive]]'')
