The (depleted) uranium load in a patient is discovered by measuring the uranium concentration in urine or blood.

For uranium in blood, feces, etc. see at : http://www.ccnr.org/du_hague.html, the chapter Medical testing for depleted uranium contamination.

Frequently used analytical chemistry methods: fluorimetry or phosphorimetry in liquid phase.

What is the minimum safe distance from a depleted uranium hazard?

Depleted uranium is not so dangerous in metallic form. The external irradiation is minimal - because the alpha radiation is retained by some centimeters of air. The gamma radiation has a small energy (max. 185 keV) and a simple shield is sufficient. Of course, for detailed data measurements of dose are necessary.


Do babies with depleted uranium survive?

Babies exposed to depleted uranium may develop health issues, but survival depends on the level of exposure, health care access, and individual factors. Long-term effects can include kidney damage, cancer risk, and developmental issues. It is important for affected babies to receive prompt medical care and monitoring.

How much activity is in 25 kilograms of 5 percent enriched uranium?

To calculate the activity of the uranium, you would need to know the specific activity of the enriched uranium sample. Activity is measured in becquerels (Bq) or curies (Ci) and it indicates the rate at which a sample undergoes radioactive decay. The specific activity takes into account both the enrichment level and the total mass of the sample.


What is the highest sub level electron occupy in uranium 238?

In uranium 238, the highest sublevel electron occupies is the 5f sublevel. Uranium has 92 electrons, so filling up the electron configuration involves reaching the 5f sublevel before completing the entire orbital diagram.
