In this data article, by using inductively coupled plasma optical spectrometry (ICP-OES), we aimed to (1) determine the concentration levels of As, Ag, Sr, Sn, Sb, and Mo in the sediments and the shells of Trachycardium lacunosum simultaneously in two separated areas (unpolluted and polluted areas) (2) comparison between the metal contents of sediments in the unpolluted and polluted areas as we...

The specific elemental composition of industrial glass products influences several of its physical properties, such as heat and shock resistance, transparency, and chemical reactivity. Chemical analysis of glass samples is therefore required to support both R&D and production operations. Unfortunately, full elemental analysis of glass by a method like ICP-OES requires digestion with hazardous a...

Total Reflection X-Ray Fluorescence Analysis (TXRF) is an established technique for trace element analysis in various sample types. Restricted in the past to expensive large-scale systems, in this study the capability of a benchtop system for trace element analysis is reported. By analysing various heavy metals in raw and digested sewage as well as mercury in recycling glass, the suitability of...

This data is obtained from analyzing the concentration of metals include Al, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mo, Pb, and Zn in the urine of schoolchildren in Asalouyeh city in vicinity to a heavily industrialized site and comparison with a reference city. The significance of sex groups on urine metal level was evaluated through this data. The urinary content of metals was measured by inductively coupled plasma...

RESULTS. A point mutation (A to C) of the B-crystallin gene, which results in the B-S11R mutant protein, was identified in this cataractous mouse line. Homozygous mutant mice developed dense nuclear cataracts associated with disrupted inner lens fiber cells. Immunohistochemistry data revealed -crystallin aggregates at the cell boundaries of inner mature fibers that lose actin filaments. Western...

We follow the evolution of polyoxomolybdate nanoparticles in suspensions derived from the keplerate (NH4)42[MoVI72MoV60O372(CH3CO2)30(H2O)72].ca..300H2O.ca..10CH3CO2NH4 ({Mo132}) by flow field-flow fractionation (FlFFF) to monitor the particle-size distribution in situ, atomic force and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (AFM, SEM, and HRTEM) to confirm particle sizes, inductively...

In this study, grains of two buckwheat species: Fagopyrum esculentum (IC37309) and Fagopyrum tataricum (var. himpriya) were phytochemically investigated for their nutritional, and antioxidant potential for their use as functional foods. Methanolic extracts of grains of two Fagopyrum species showed higher phenolic content and antioxidant activity. Inductively coupled plasma optical emission spec...

The content of trace elements (Cu, Cr, Ni, Pb, and Zn) in hair and skin of silver fox (Vulpes vulpes) and arctic fox (Alopex lagopus) were determined. The content of elements were determined using inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). Samples of animal hair and skin were collected from two farms located in mid-western Poland: farm A, situated in a rural area and far...
