Uranium puts that blade on the point. The same amount of pressure now causes damage, because the force is localised? Does this metaphor make the danger clear? Natural radiation gives a random sampling of cells a dose. Unnatural radiation exposure of the same scientific magnitude gives a few ...
As Gulf War veterans were exposed to hazards not experienced in previous conflicts, the extensive list of suspected culprits through the years has included the physical and psychological stresses of war, pesticide or nerve gas exposure, depleted uranium (DU) munition exposures, pyridostigmine ...
pesticide or nerve gas exposure, depleted uranium (DU) munition exposures, pyridostigmine bromide pills taken by troops to protect against nerve agents, vaccinations for in-theater infections and toxins, and exposure to downwind oil and smoke that spewed for months from hundreds of burning oil wells...
Aim: Significant presence of depleted uranium (DU) in the urine of British, Canadian, and United States veterans nine years after inhalational exposure in the Desert Storm conflict has been reported in the studies of DU urine analysis by mass spectrometry. The aim of this study is to report ...
