To upgrade and determine their calibration curves, we have performed irradiation in high-energy heavier charged particle beams at Dubna, Russia and at Chiba, Japan. We were able to irradiate detectors by means of particles from 12C to 56Fe with LET in water from 7.9 to 200keV/mm. Upgraded calibration curves were obtained through a regression analysis, including systematic uncertainty estimation. The results obtained were combined with statistical uncertainty treatment and were used to analyse recently and previously obtained data. Examples of the results are presented and analysed.
