gadolinium
Gadolinium (Gd) is an element.
Gadolinium is sometimes referred to as Gd.
It originates from the the Latin word "Gallia" which refers to France.
The atomic mass number of gadolinium is 157.25 g/mol.
Some compounds of gadolinium include gadolinium oxide, gadolinium chloride, and gadolinium nitrate. Gadolinium compounds are used in various applications, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents, in the production of specialized magnets, and in certain electronics and optical devices.
Gadolinium has 7 valence electrons.
One effective way to chelate gadolinium from the body is through the use of chelation therapy, which involves administering a chelating agent that binds to the gadolinium and helps remove it from the body through urine or feces. This process can help reduce the levels of gadolinium in the body and minimize potential side effects from gadolinium exposure.
