WebElements Periodic Table of the Elements | Titanium

Titanium: biological information

Biological role of titanium: titanium has no biological role. The metal is regarded as hypoallergenic.

Levels in humans

Table: the abundances of the elements in humans.
Human abundance by weight	no data ppb by weight
Human abundance by atoms	no data atoms relative to C = 1000000

How much titanium is in your body? Find out here.

You can use this form to calculate how much titanium your body contains. Enter your weight in either kilograms or pounds and click the "Calculate" button. You must enter a number, not text! Elements for which there are no data will always give a value of zero for the weight, no matter what you put in the weight box.

Hazards and Risks

Hazards and risks associated with titanium: titanium metal powder is a major fire hazard but titanium salts are often regarded as relatively harmless. Compounds such as TiCl₃ and TiCl₄ should be regarded as corrosive. Titanium tends to accumulate in silica-containing tissues.
