Source: Webster's dictionaryAfter one day, one gram of bacteria can encrust themselves with nine grams of uranyl phosphate crystals; this creates the possibility that these organisms could be used in bioremediation to decontaminate uranium-polluted water. Source: Internet
A Sphingomonas sp. strain BSAR-1 has been found to express a high activity alkaline phosphatase (PhoK) that has been applied for bioprecipitation of uranium as uranyl phosphate species from alkaline solutions. Source: Internet
Citrobacter species absorb uranyl ions when given glycerol phosphate (or other similar organic phosphates). Source: Internet
Ether was then added in a liquid–liquid extraction process to separate the impurities from the uranyl nitrate. Source: Internet
Incorporated uranium becomes uranyl ions, which accumulate in bone, liver, kidney, and reproductive tissues. Source: Internet
When UF 6 is exposed to moist air, it reacts with the water in the air and produces UO 2 F 2 (uranyl fluoride) and HF (hydrogen fluoride), both of which are highly soluble and toxic. Source: Internet
