Biochemical Effects Current Trends in Fluorine Research

[Current trends in fluorine research].

PURPOSE Current topics in fluorine research are presented with emphasis on findings by researchers in Szczecin and Poland, as well as in the world. Reports are cited on the distribution of fluorine compounds in the environment, routes of penetration into living organisms, and analytical methods for the quantitative determinations of fluorine content in air, water, soil, and foods. Important con...

A review of the current research trends in the application of medicinal plants as a source for novel therapeutic agents against Acanthamoeba infections

Acanthamoeba keratitis (AK) is a sight-threating infection of the cornea that mostly affects contact lens wearers. Until now, AK treatment remains very difficult due to the existence of a highly resistant cyst stage in the life cycle of Acanthamoeba which is extremely resistant to most of the available anti-amoebic compounds. Moreover, current treatment of AK is usually based in the combination...

Synthesis and Biochemical effects of magnetite nanoparticle by surfactant-free electrochemical method in an aqueous system:the current density effect

Obejective(s): In this research, magnetite nanoparticles with an average size of 23-36 nm were successfully synthesized via surfactant-free electrochemical method using iron as the anode and water as the electrolyte in a closed aqueous system in the presence of NaOH at room temperature. Methods: The effect of the current density on product formation...
