The mode of coordination of8 manganese(fI), cobaltm, nickel(H), copper(II), zinc(H), lead(II) and cadmium(I1) to sodium ascorbate (NaHAsc) was investigated using IR, UV-visible, AAS, elemental microanalyzer, conductivity, magnetic and 'M and I3C NMR spectroscopic studies, NaNAsc is bidentate and coordination was through the carbonyl group and the oxygen atom of carbon-2 enolic hydfoxyl grou...

Cadmium is one of the toxic, hazardous metals widely dispersed in the environment in high levels. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the role of lycopene on hematological parameters in cadmium exposed mice. Albino mice were divided into four groups. Group I were control mice, group II received cadmium (0.32mg/kg bw) only, group III received olive oil (20mg/kg bw) only and group IV rece...

the mode of coordination of8 manganese(fi), cobaltm, nickel(h), copper(ii), zinc(h), lead(ii) and cadmium(i1) to sodium ascorbate (nahasc) was investigated using ir, uv-visible, aas, elemental microanalyzer, conductivity, magnetic and 'm and i3c nmr spectroscopic studies, nanasc is bidentate and coordination was through the carbonyl group and the oxygen atom of carbon-2 enolic hydfoxyl gro...

This work investigated the microbial toxicity of soluble species that can potentially be leached from the II-VI semiconductor materials, cadmium telluride and cadmium selenide. The soluble ions tested included: cadmium, selenite, selenate, tellurite, and tellurate. Their toxicity towards the acetoclastic and hydrogen-consuming trophic groups in a methanogenic consortium as well as towards a bio...

A novel complex of cadmium (II) [CdL0.5(NO3)(H2O)](1), L= N,N-bis (O-hydroxyacetophenone) ethylene diamine, have been synthesized as single crystal and nano size. Compound 1 in nano size was obtained under sonochemical irradiation and has been characterized by IR, 1HNMR spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and scanni...

The aim of the study was to establish to what degree the 24-week exposure of a rat to 5 and 50 mg Cd/dm3 affects the proliferating activity of cells with PCNA and Ki-67 nuclear immunoreactivity in the submandibular gland cells. The control animals received only redistilled water to drink. The group I rats were given 5 mg Cd/dm3, while the group II animals were given 50 mg Cd/dm3. The highest co...

We investigated possible anti-diabetic effect of ferrocene-based acyl ureas: 4-ferrocenyl aniline (PFA), 1-(4-chlorobenzoyl)-3-(4-ferrocenylphenyl) urea (DPC1), 1-(3-chlorobenzoyl)-3-(4-ferrocenylphenyl) urea (DMC1), 1-(2-chlorobenzoyl)-3-(4-ferrocenylphenyl) urea (DOC1) and homoleptic cadmium carboxylates: bis (diphenylacetato) cadmium (II) (DPAA), bis (4-chlorophenylacetato) cadmium (II) (CPA...

Effect of cadmium (Cd II) and lead (Pb II) was determined on cell proliferation, DNA synthesis, DNA repair, and DNA polymerase activity. The experiments were done on lymphocytes obtained from sheep infected with bovine leukaemia virus (BLV) and non-infected animals. All methods were based on [ H]-thymidine incorporation into DNA and performed in cell cultures stimulated by mitogens. Lymphocytes...
