	Strontium for bone health
		In addition to its antiresorptive activity, strontium was found to have anabolic activity in bone, and thus may have significant beneficial effects on bone balance in normal and osteopenic animals.
		These studies, the benefits of strontium ranelate (reducing fracture risk by as much as 50%) and the history of strontium in medical practice were discussed as an editorial in the New England Journal of Medicine, January 29th, 2004.
		Strontium is available as strontium carbonate, strontium chloride, strontium sulfate, strontium gluconate and strontium citrate.

	Strontium Summary
		Strontium is the fourth element in Group 2 of the periodic table, a group of elements known as the alkaline earth metals.
		Strontium chloride is sometimes used in toothpastes for sensitive teeth.
		Strontium was among the radioactive materials released by the 1957 Windscale fire.

	strontium. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
		Celestite and strontianite are the chief ores of strontium.
		Principal uses of strontium compounds are in pyrotechnics (chiefly the nitrate) and in greases (the hydroxide).
		Strontium was first recognized as distinct from barium in 1790 by A. Crawford in a sample of its carbonate from a mine near Strontian, Scotland; his finding was later confirmed by T. Hope, M. Klaproth, and others.

		Strontium was first isolated by Sir Humphry Davy, an English chemist, in 1808 through the electrolysis of a mixture of strontium chloride (SrCl2) and mercuric oxide (HgO).
		The strontium chloride, usually mixed with potassium chloride (KCl), is then melted and electrolyzed, forming strontium and chlorine gas (Cl2).
		Plutonium, cerium and strontium were released to the air from the original plutonium separations plants from late 1944 through at least 1951.

	Strontium (CASRN 7440-24-6), IRIS, Environmental Protection Agency (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The bioavailability of strontium was estimated to be 20% in 6 healthy adult males administered 2.5 mmol of strontium chloride (Leeuwenkamp et al., 1990).
		Ingested strontium is distributed in the body in three compartments: plasma extracellular fluid; soft tissue and superficial zone of bone tissue; and bone itself (El Solh and Rousselet, 1981).
		Strontium causes adverse effects on bone by substituting for calcium in the hydroxyapatite crystal during bone calcification or by displacing calcium from existing calcified matrix (Skoryna, 1984; Kshirsagar, 1985).

	Method for recovery and conversion of strontium sulfate to strontium carbonate from low and medium grade celestite ores ...
		Strontium is a relatively rare alkaline-earth metal commonly found as insoluble sulfate, carbonate, silicate and phosphate deposits in the earth's crust.
		The strontium sulfate is usually converted to the carbonate form which finds a variety of uses in the electronics and glass industries, particularly glass for use in television tubes where low transmission of x-rays is desired.
		The strontium sulfate containing residue is washed and then treated with ammonium carbonate added in a slight excess to the stoichiometric value of the strontium sulfate present in the celestite ore. This treatment converts the strontium sulfate into strontium carbonate which, being relatively insoluble, remains out of solution.

		In a 3-year, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 5,091 women with osteoporosis, use of strontium at a dose of 2 grams daily significantly improved bone density and reduced incidence of all fractures as compared to placebo.
		Other forms of strontium besides strontium ranelate, such as strontium chloride, have shown potential benefits in animal studies, but have not undergone significant testing in people.
		Based on current evidence strontium ranelate can be taken at a dose of 500 mg to 1 gram daily to prevent osteoporosis and at a higher dose of 2 grams daily to treat existing osteoporosis.
