Iyo element barium inozivikanwa kuva ine chepfu, asi musanganiswa wayo barium sulfate unogona kuita seanosiyanisa mumiririri wezvikena izvi. Zvave zvichiratidzwa nemishonga kuti barium ions mumunyu inovhiringidza muviri we calcium uye potassium metabolism, zvichikonzera matambudziko akadai sekushaya simba kwetsandanyama, kunetseka kufema, mamiriro emwoyo asina kufanana uye kunyange kuoma mitezo. Ichi ndicho chikonzero nei vanhu vazhinji vachifunga kuti barium chinhu chakashata, uye vanhu vazhinji vari pabarium carbonate vanongogara pairi semuchetura une simba wemakonzo.
Zvisinei,barium carbonateine mhedzisiro yekunyungudika kwakadzika kusingagone kushomeka. Barium carbonate is insoluble medium uye inogona kumedzwa zvachose mudumbu nemuura. Inoita basa rakakosha muzvidzidzo zvegastrointestinal seanosiyanisa mumiriri. Handizivi kana wakaverenga chinyorwa chimwe chete. Chinyorwa chacho chinotaurira nyaya yekuti dombo rebarium rakafadza sei varoyi uye alchemists mukutanga kwezana remakore rechi17. Musayendisiti Giulio Cesare Lagalla, uyo akaona dombo, akaramba asina chokwadi. Zvimwe zvinoshamisa, mavambo echiitiko chacho haana kutsanangurwa zvakajeka kusvikira gore rakapera (zvisati zvadaro, zvakanzi zvisiri izvo kune chimwe chikamu chebwe).
Mishonga yeBarium ine kukosha kwechokwadi mune dzimwe nzvimbo dzakawanda, senge maajenti ekuyeresa kuita kuti mvura yekuchera inoshandiswa mumafuta uye gasi Zvitsime zvakanyanya kuomarara. Izvi zvinoenderana nehunhu hwezita 56: barys zvinoreva "kurema" muchiGiriki. Nekudaro, inewo divi rehunyanzvi: barium chloride uye nitrite inoshandiswa kupenda fireworks yakasvibira yakasvibira, uye barium dihydroxide inoshandiswa kudzoreredza mifananidzo.
