On the basic non-toxic. Barium meal is gastrointestinal barium, barium sulfate is used as a contrast agent, a kind of examination method of digestive tract has no lesions displayed in X-ray irradiation. The principle of X-ray examination, because the human body in various organs and tissues of different density and thickness, which shows the natural level of contrast black and white. But in some parts of the body, especially the abdomen, because several similar internal organs and tissue density, you must import the contrast agent harmless to the human body (such as medical barium sulfate), artificially increase the contrast of the display, to achieve the ideal effect. The clinical check method called X-ray inspection angiography.
Therefore, it is mainly used as a gastrointestinal contrast agent and is used to make barium saltsBarite are non renewable resources, is one of China's export advantage of mineral products, widely used for barium sulfate product increasing agent of oil and natural gas drilling mud, consumption in the fields of chemical industry, barium filler is increasing year by year. Barite resources in China is abundant, distributed in 21 provinces (area), the total reserves of ore 3.6 tons, ranking first in the world. It can be used in medical imaging agent in the digestive system. Barite in the paint can also be used as a pigment added to paint to cover, can improve the compactness properties of paint film. Improving the performance of coatings in a certain degree in medicine can be. For the digestive tract examination, namely barium meal. Because it is insoluble in water and lipid, so it will not be absorbed in gastrointestinal mucosa
The barium sulfate mineral called barite. White amorphous powder is stable, insoluble in water, acid, alkali or organic solvents. Radiological examination using barium sulfate agent which can absorb X rays and its role in developing the gastrointestinal tract,
