Uranium incorporation biokinetics in poultry bones as function of phytase doses. <b>Journal of Radioanalytical and Nuclear Chemistry</b>, v. 263, n. 2, p. 287-289, 2005.

To investigate this situation experiments involving several groups of Cobb broilers was performed. Two animals per group were sacrificed weekly up to their adultness and uranium concentration in the tibia was measured. It was observed that the concentration of uranium (µg U/g bone) is decreasing all along the animal life spanning period of 14ñ42 days. This behavior suggests that the skeleton mass is growing faster than the corresponding accumulation of uranium. The administration of phytase seems not to alter this scenario.287-289openAccessfowlskeletonuraniumintaketibianeutron activation analysisradionuclide kineticsuptakeArtigo de periódico226310.1007/s10967-005-0582-3https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7766-2692
