The primary health threat of depleted uranium or DU is from its toxicity as what?
Depleted uranium is mildly radioactive, but poses a considerable health threat as a heavy metal poison or toxin.
The primary health threat of depleted uranium is from its toxicity as a?
heavy metal
The primary health threat of depleted uranium DU is from its toxicity as a?
The primary health threat of depleted uranium (DU) is its potential toxic effects when absorbed into the body. DU can cause kidney damage, lung cancer, and harm to the reproductive system. It is considered hazardous mainly due to its radioactivity and chemical toxicity.
The primary health threat of depleted uranium is from its toxicity?
Yes, that is correct. Depleted uranium is a toxic metal and there have been studies made to show its ill effects. There is a much smaller secondary concern of radiation (as this material is still radioactive but much less so than natural or enriched uranium as it lacks the highly unstable isotope U-235) but toxicity is the primary threat.
A thief who has stolen large quantities of uranium may have increased the threat of what?
proliferation
A thief who stolen large quantities of uranium 235 may have increased the threat of what?
proliferation
What is health threats?
it is diseases that threat the health of the people
Was the primary threat from the soviet union military or ideological?
The military threat grew out of the mutual ideological threat between the west and the east.

Why is no one talking about US depleted uranium munitions?
There is a lot of discussion about the use and effects of depleted uranium projectiles, both on a national and an international level. (The US is not the only country using them, but is the leading nation currently expending them.) These bullets use the high density and volatility of uranium to defeat armored targets. They are kinetic energy penetrating projectiles that lack explosives. These projectiles will arrive with elevated kinetic energy, and they vaporize as they deliver that energy into the target. This almost always has the effect of distributing the uranium around the point of impact as finely divided particles, and the uranium is then present as both a radioactive metal and a heavy metal toxin. The latter is the most hazardous threat.The challenge in all this is providing good clinical evidence regarding the cause and effect of using these materials as regards what happens to people who are exposed. There is no doubt about the nasty effects of uranium poisoning on man, and some of those military people operating in the areas where the projectiles have been used can be exposed to the hazards. Needless to say, after the smoke clears and the troops leave, any civilian populations that move into the area can also be exposed. Documentation is a challenge, and a range of claims have been made. But the threat is real, and some people have been shown to have suffered under the strain of health issues related to uranium poisoning. Use the link below to read more. If you are a serious investigator, the path to knowledge will be a long one.
