OSTI ID:4259791
The mechanism of uranium poisoning according to the most recent studies is reported. Soluble and insoluble naturai uranium are primarily considered. Chemical toxicity and radiological hazards are closely related and at present it is believed that chemical toxicity prevails for soluble uranium and radiological toxicity for insoluble uranium. The toxicity of enriched uranium and U/sup 233/ is briefiy discussed. The radiological toxicity prevails in U/sup 233/ in both soluble and insoluble forms. The maximum permissible concentration of natural uranium and U/sup 233/ in the air is reported. 22 references. (auth)
