Determination of available and carbonate antimony (Sb) in soil by Atomic Fluorescence Spectrometry [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2021
Antimony (Sb) is a toxic and potentially carcinogenic metalloid element. The toxicity of Sb in the environment strongly relies on its speciation. It is necessary to investigate the speciation and content of antimony in soil in order to understand better ...

Urine antimony and risk of cardiovascular disease – A prospective case-cohort study in Danish Non-Smokers

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2023
Background: Limited evidence suggests that antimony induces vascular inflammation and oxidative stress and may play a role in cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk.

Chemical and forensic analysis of JFK assassination bullet lots: Is a second shooter possible? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The assassination of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy (JFK) traumatized the nation. In this paper we show that evidence used to rule out a second assassin is fundamentally flawed.

Glutathione-Induced Conversion of Pentavalent Antimony to Trivalent Antimony in Meglumine Antimoniate [PDF]

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2001
ABSTRACT The standard treatment of human leishmaniases involves the use of pentavalent antimony [Sb(V)] compounds, including meglumine antimoniate. The mode of action of these compounds has not been fully elucidated. The possibility that Sb(III) is involved has been suggested; however, the biomolecule that may induce the ...

Associations of ore minerals in the deposits of the Seinäjoki district and the discussion on the ore formation [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1983
The mineral associations of the antimony deposits in the Seinäjoki region (Finland) are described on the basis of microprobe investigations. There are two ore associations: quartz-antimony and pyrrhotite- antimony.

Novel polyoxometalates: Is antimony the new molybdenum? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Polyoxometalates based on Mo, W or V have been known for a long time and present a diverse range of structures, with the [XMo₁₂O₄₀]ⁿ⁻ Keggin ions (X = P, Si ,…) perhaps the best known.¹ They are still subject to intense research with >4000 papers ...

Increased thiol levels in antimony-resistant Leishmania infantum isolated from treatment-refractory visceral leishmaniasis in Brazil

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz
BACKGROUND Treatment-refractory visceral leishmaniasis (VL) has become an important problem in many countries. OBJECTIVES We evaluated the antimony-resistance mechanisms of Leishmania infantum isolated from VL patients refractory or responsive to ...

First-principle study of antimony doping effects on the iron-based superconductor CaFe(Sb$_{x}$As$_{1-x}$)$_{2}$

open access: yes, 2015
We study antimony doping effects in the iron-based superconductor CaFe(Sb$_{x}$As$_{1-x}$)$_{2}$ by using the first-principle calculation. The calculations reveal that the substitution of the doped antimony atom into As of the chainlike As layers is more

Mobility of antimony, arsenic and lead at a former mine, Glendinning, Scotland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Elevated concentrations of antimony (Sb), arsenic (As) and lead (Pb) in upland organic-rich soils have resulted from past Sb mining activities at Glendinning, southern Scotland. Transfer of these elements into soil porewaters was linked to the production
