Re: reply to Cedervall (was Re: uranium munitions burning in air....)

>I recommend comparison and contrast of that to J. L. Domingo in

_Reproductive Toxicology_, vol. 15, no. 6, pp. 603-609 (2001)

which is cited by www.bovik.org/du/reproduction-review-2001.pdf



This is a review - not original information. I do not find anything in this 

paper which clearly relates to transfer of hereditary changes to a next 

generation.



The DU issue is, as we discussed here before, more about chemical toxicity 

than radioactivity. I have no reason to doubt that if uranium is given in 

enough amounts orally to animals (including pregnant individuals) they will 

suffer in various ways, an increased fraction of embryos will be lost or 

malformed but the topic was about primary effects on the sperm level.



My personal initiative and reflections only,
