Radioactive Cs-137 is mostly responsible for meltdowns of spent reactor fuel. This discovery, if confirmed, will lead to many useful practical applications, both civilian and military.

If you want to change the nucleus of an atom, i.e. to convert one element into another, you need more than compounds which only affect the electron shell of this atom.
Artificial nuclear transmutation works, however, with high energy particles which are not found in non-radioactive cells. The claim is very likely nonsense.
