Coupled molybdenum, iron and uranium stable isotopes as oceanic paleoredox proxies during the Paleoproterozoic Shunga Event
Abstract The Paleoproterozoic Era was a time of remarkable importance in the redox
evolution of Earth's atmosphere and oceans. Here, we present a multi-proxy study of Mo, U …

Bone as target organ for metals: the case of f-elements
C Vidaud, D Bourgeois, D Meyer - Chemical research in …, 2012 - ACS Publications
The skeleton is a target organ for most metals. This leads to their bioaccumulation, either as
storage of useful oligoelements or as a protection against damage by toxic elements. The …
