the effects of aluminium and aluminium-citrate on some serum parameters related to carbohydrate metabolism in male wistar rats were investigated. daily intraperitoneal administrations of 1 mg/kg body weight of aluminium or aluminiumcitrate (1: 1) for 50 days led to the elevation of serum insulin by 24 or 40 percent respectively, with the concomitant decrease in serum glucose concentrations by 1...

INTRODUCTION Aluminium is a known neurotoxin and occupational exposure to aluminium has been implicated in neurological disease including Alzheimer's disease. Here we present the first comprehensive and unequivocal data demonstrating significantly elevated brain aluminium content in an individual occupationally exposed to aluminium. CASE PRESENTATION A 66-year-old Caucasian man who died with ...

Introduction: In recent years, the use of neutrons has increased in various fields such as medicine and industry. One of the important applications of neutrons is in medical research. Neutrons have greater linear energy transfer than gamma rays and are considered more dangerous radiation. Hence, the detection and determination of neutron dose is a very important and vital issu...

Urinary excretion of aluminium after a successful transplant can reverse pre-transplant aluminium intoxication. We have evaluated the time course of urinary aluminium excretion and its correlation with several parameters of renal function and mineral metabolism in 49 patients (33 men and 16 women) with a wide range of pre-transplant serum aluminium concentrations, performing sequential determin...

In this work GEM and single-hole Thick structures, composed of different coating materials, are studied. The used foils incorporate conductive layers made copper, aluminium, molybdenum, stainless steel, tungsten tantalum. main focus the study is determination material dependence formation electrical discharges in GEM-based detectors. For task, discharge probability measurements conducted with s...

This case series study predictability of free gingival graft in management recession. 3 cases with mucogingival problems needing grafts were selected. First, the recipient site was anesthetized and de-epithelialization done bed prepared. After tracing palatal donor aluminium foil template, bleeding points marked harvested. For root modification tooth, conditioning dentin by EDTA. Graft is close...

Abstract Production of building materials emits 11% global carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emission. The greenhouse gas emission from the construction industry has been tried to mininmize early 1980s; but after four decades development, it is not fully sustainable. Cement second most consumed material in world, water and cement production contributes for 8% CO We produced a greener abundantly available ...

Horse spleen ferritin was found to bind aluminium poorly after equilibrium dialysis with buffered aluminium citrate solutions. Not more than 10 aluminium atoms/ferritin molecule were bound from a 25 microM-aluminium solution, pH 7.4, and the degree of binding was dependent on the method used to prepare the aluminium citrate solution. Up to 120 aluminium atoms/molecule were bound when ferritin i...
