Polonium 210: World's most dangerous poison

Cyanide is considered dangerous poison, but there is also an extremely deadly substance – called polonium 210. This poison is so dangerous that very few people know about it but scientists consider it the most dangerous poison in the world. According to experts, only one gram of polonium can kill 210 thousands of people. Due to its dangerous nature and very small amounts effective, it was kept as a very sensitive and controlled substance. Polonium 210 was discovered in 1898 by the Polish -original scientist Mary Curie and her husband Pierre Curie. This radioactive element can be obtained from naturally found radium, and the most important use was in military and scientific research. This poison causes excessive radioactive radiation to the body, which immediately damages the cells and organs. It has a serious effect on important organs such as kidney, liver and heart and death. However, polonium 210 is usually not used in the public or domestic environment. This poison is used only under highly controlled conditions, because its radiation can affect not only hunting, but also people in the area. Scientists and security experts warn of the poison that its unauthorized use is considered dangerous and crime. It is a serious legal offense to use it as a weapon or killer agent. Polonium 210 is therefore not only scientifically important, but it also gives a message of a warning for caution and safety. Its life -threatening nature has given it a prominent place in the list of the world’s most dangerous toxins. Share this story -tags
