Osmium tetraoxide, a commercially available yellow solid (melting point 40 C) is used commercially as a stain for tissue in microscopy. It is poisonous and attacks the eyes. Osmium metal is catalytically active, but it is not commonly used for this purpose because of its high price. Osmium ...
osmium has the highest melting point and lowest vapor pressure of the platinum group. While the metal form is often difficult to isolate, osmium powder can be sintered at high temperatures. This powder gives off a highly toxic, strong-smelling tetraoxide, giving osmium its Greek or...

Osmium tetraoxide has been used in fingerprint detection and staining fatty tissues using electron and optical microscopy. An alloy of 90% platinum and 10% osmium is used in surgical implants such as pacemakers and replacement heart valves. Finely divided osmium metal is also used as a catalyst....
The pure metal does not pose any harmful effects unless exposed to air as it undergoes reaction to form osmium tetraoxide, a poisonous and highly reactive compound, causing lung congestion, skin irritation, and eye problems[6, 7]. Osmium Image Interesting Facts It is the densest element, approx...
