Impact of accounting of 238U chemical toxicity on its permissible release level to atmosphere

Радиационная гигиена, 2021
At present, the permissible atmospheric release levels of 238U are evaluated only on a basis of its radiation impact on population. At the same time, uranium belongs to the 1st hazard class (extremely dangerous chemicals) by its toxic effect.
