A highly coveted children's toy from the 1950s is going on sale—and it contains real uranium. The Gilbert U-238 Atomic Energy Laboratory, which was released in 1950, was dubbed one of 'the 10 ...

Shewanella oneidensis is a microbe that can convert soluble uranium, a groundwater-contamination threat at nuclear waste sites, to solid uraninite that sticks to soil, preventing contamination ...

The uraninite crystals are less than 3 nm in diameter and occur as discrete (Fig. 1a, inset) and aggregated particles, and as particle coatings on bacterial cell surfaces (Fig. 1b).

WASSERSTEIN1 suggested that the generation by radioactive decay of Pb4+ of smaller ionic radii within the crystal lattice of uraninite caused a shrinkage in the unit cell proportionate to the ...
