Abstract

Uranium, occurs naturally in the earth’s crust, is an alpha emitter radioactive element from the actinide group. For this reason, U-235 and U-238, are uranium isotopes with long half lives, have got radiological toxicity. But, for natural-isotopic-composition uranium (NatU), there is greater risk from chemical toxicity than radiological toxicity. When uranium is get into the body with anyway, also its chemical toxicity must be thought.

Özet

Dünya kabuğunda doğal olarak bulunan uranyum, aktinit grubunda alfa yayınlayan radyoaktif bir elementtir. Bu nedenle uzun yarı ömürlü uranyum izotopları olan U-235 ve U-238, radyoaktif zehirliliğe sahiptirler. Ancak doğal izotopik yapıdaki uranyum bileşiği (U-doğal) radyolojik zehirlilikten ziyade kimyasal zehirlilikten gelen daha büyük bir risk oluşturmaktadır. Her hangi bir şekilde vücut içerine uranyum alındığında onun kimyasal zehirliliği de düşünülmelidir.
