Toxicity：

Three isotopes (234U, 235U, 238U) exist, and a large number of uranium salts are known. They present both toxic and radiological hazards. The most important use of uranium is in the nuclear energy industry, but uranium compounds are also used in ceramics, as catalysts and in certain alloys. Entry into the body can occur during a variety of processes involved with the mining, processing or use of uranium and its compounds, and is probably largely by inhalation of dusts, fumes, etc. or by ingestion. Acute uranium toxicity is primarily nephrotoxicity. About 50% of plasma uranium is bound, as the uranyl ion, to bicarbonate (HCO23 ), which is filtered by the glomerulus. As a result of acidification in the proximal tubule, the bicarbonate complex dissociates followed by reabsorption of the HCO23 ; the released UO21 then becomes attached to the membrane of the proximal tubule cells. Loss of cell function follows, as evidenced by increased concentration of glucose, amino acids, and proteins in the urine. 2,3-Mercapto-1-propanol (British Anti-Lewisite, BAL) is ineffective as a therapeutic agent for uranium poisoning; CaEDTA is recommended. Chronic uranium toxicity appears to be radiation related, the effects being similar to those of ionizing radiation. In humans, cancer of the lung, bone, and lymphatic system are all known to occur.
