Effects of chronic arsenic exposure on hematopoietic function in adult mammalian liver.

abstract：:Animal studies and small studies in humans have shown that uranium is nephrotoxic. However, more information about its renal effects in humans following chronic exposure through drinking water is required. We measured uranium concentrations in drinking water and urine in 325 persons who had used drilled wells for drin...
