A 25-year-old patient with acrodermatitis enteropathica who had been treated with di-iodohydroxyquinoline for 20 years was changed to zinc sulphate therapy and studied under full metabolic balance control for zinc, calcium, magnesium, and inorganic phosphorus. The results obtained indicate that there is only a small overall deficit of body zinc stores in this disease and that the function of di...

Ciprofloxacin bioavailability may be reduced when ciprofloxacin is co-administered with metallic ion containing preparations. In our previous study, physicochemical interaction between ciprofloxacin and ferrous sulphate was successfully simulated in vitro. In the present work, comparative in vitro ciprofloxacin solubility and dissolution studies were performed in the reactive media containing a...

A field experiment was conducted at Horticulture Farm of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka during November, 2020 to February, 2021. The laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications. had two factors (Different levels salicylic acid, S0= No acid (control), S1= 60 ppm S2= 90 and different zinc, Z0= zinc sulphate Z1= 25 sulphate, Z2= 50 sulphate. Different salic...

this research aimed to study on effect of foliar spraying with zinc (as zinc sulphate), nitrogen (as urea) and iron (as sulphate and chelated fe) on growth parameters, quality of fruit, flower characteristics, chemical constituents and nutrients content of leaves on grapevine. applied nutrients were zinc sulphate (zn) of 0.0 and 1.5gl-1 and urea (n) at 0.0 and 5 gl-1 and fe (1) control (low fe)...

The Zn-Cu battery is plagued with both the problems of Cu2+ migration into the anodic chamber as well as the problem of shape change of zinc electrodes, where both of these processes together have historically prevented this type of battery technology from being rechargeable. We herein propose using a monovalent selective cation exchange membrane (CIEM) that through X-ray diffraction experiment...

Many studies have reported that zinc plasma levels significantly decrease after a burn, leading to zinc deficiency, and that increased free radical generation and decreased natural antioxidant may negatively affect wound healing and burn outcome in general. Targeting of these changes is considered an important strategy in the treatment of burns in an attempt to improve burn outcome in the clini...

BACKGROUND Though pregnant women in Ghana routinely receive iron and folic acid supplements, the prevalence of anaemia continues to be as high as 70%. OBJECTIVE To determine the impact of zinc deficiency on iron status indicators in pregnant women. DESIGN A double-blind, randomized controlled trial (RCT) of joint iron and zinc supplementation. SETTING The study was conducted in the Upper ...

Fourteen infertile males (age 24-45 years; married over 2 years) with idiopathic oligospermia (sperm count less than 40 millions/ml) were investigated for the effect of oral zinc sulphate (220 mg) for 4 months on their serum and seminal zinc levels, and seminal parameters. With zinc administration serum zinc levels remained essentially unaffected, however, seminal zinc levels increased signific...
