Uranyl nitrate is an inorganic salt with the formula UO 2 (NO 3) 2. It is highly soluble in water and is often marketed as its hexahydrate 1 or in solution. As the hazard information table shows, it ...

The frustratingly unreactive oxygen atoms in the water-soluble uranyl ion (UO 2) 2+ have now been shown to be capable of powerful chemistry—in the right environment. Inorganic chemists Polly L. Arnold ...

As the global demand for clean and low-carbon energy grows, nuclear power is expected to play an increasingly important role. Yet the expansion of nuclear energy brings a persistent environmental ...

Researchers have developed a protein that binds to uranium selectively and tightly -- a simple, effective methods for the sensitive detection and effective treatment of uranium poisoning. The use of ...

Usually if you want to get uranium, you're going to have to do some mining. However, a new study out of Stanford suggests an unusual and potentially major source of uranium in the future: seawater.

Researchers at TU Graz have proven that espresso is a favourable alternative to the highly toxic and radioactive uranyl acetate in the analysis of biological samples. To ensure that the tissue ...
