Generation of nitric oxide (NO) and evaluation of the central cholinergic system of male Sprague-Dawley rats after uranium exposure have also been studied (Abou-Donia et al., 2002). Intramuscular injection of 0.1 and l.Omg/kg for 7 days, followed by a 30-day observational period, resulted in sensorimotor deficits in rat behavior, differential levels of NO, and increased acetylcholinesterase activity in the cortex of animals dosed with 1 mg/ kg, suggesting multiple exposures to low doses of ura-nyl acetate caused prolonged neurobehavioral deficits in rats after the initial exposure has ceased, similar to the exposures of Gulf War veterans (Abou-Donia et al., 2002). 

For the extraction of Tc from molybdemun irradiated by neutrons or separated from uranium fission products, inorganic sorbents, especially aliuninum oxide have widely been applied. In preparing a Tc generator from irradiated molybdenum , MoOj is dissolved in cone, nitric acid, the solution is diluted and passed through an aluminum oxide column. The column is then eluted by 0.2 N H2SO4 to extract Tc. If molybdenum is adsorbed by AljOj as molybdatophos-phate instead of molybdate, the exchange capacity of molybdenum increases from... 

During plutonium reconversion in a reprocessing plant, oxalate supernatant is normally generated during plutonium precipitation by oxalic acid as plutonium oxalate. This is further converted into plutonium oxide. This waste solution will have the following composition uranium (U) 5 gm dm , plutonium (Pu) 25 mg dm, mthenium (Ru ° ) 0.0032 mCi dm, cesium (Cs ) 0.003 mCi dm , nitric acid 3 M, and H2C2O4 0.1 M. 

ETHYL-l-HEXANOL (104-76-7) Combustible liquid (flash point 175°F/79°C). Reacts violently with oxidizers, aliphatic amines, alkalis, ammonium persulfate, boranes, bromine dioxide, isocyanates, nitric acid, perchlorates, permanganates, peroxides, sodium peroxide, sulfuric acid, uranium fluoride. Flow or agitation of substance may generate electrostatic charges due to low conductivity.
