Uranium carcinogenicity in humans might depend on the physical and chemical nature of uranium and its isotopic composition: results from pilot epidemiological study of French nuclear workers

Objective: To study the cancer risk related to protracted, low-dose exposure to different industrial uranium compounds, paying attention to their isotopic composition and solubility. Methods: Two thousand and ninety-seven workers employed at the AREVA NC uranium processing plant (France) were follow...
