Arsenic (As), a widespread environmental toxic substance, one of arsenic's clinical signs is liver damage. Ellagic acid protects liver toxicity as well as injuries induced by arsenic, and up‐regulates HO‐1 expression. Ellagic acid has a pharmacological characteristic, including anti‐inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

Characterization of the Arsenate Respiratory Reductase from Shewanella sp. Strain ANA-3 [PDF]
Microbial arsenate respiration contributes to the mobilization of arsenic from the solid to the soluble phase in various locales worldwide. To begin to predict the extent to which As(V) respiration impacts arsenic geochemical cycling, we characterized ...

Bayesian Spectral Modeling of Microscale Spatial Distributions in a Multivariate Soil Matrix [PDF]
Recent technological advances have enabled researchers in a variety of fields to collect accurately geocoded data for several variables simultaneously. In many cases it may be most appropriate to jointly model these multivariate spatial processes without constraints on their conditional relationships. When data have been collected on a regular lattice,

Manganese nanoclusters and nanowires on GaAs surfaces [PDF]
We have computed the local magnetic moments of manganese and neighboring arsenic for various cluster configurations on the (001) surface of GaAs bulk crystal using a cluster of 512 atoms. We obtained for manganese a substantial local magnetic moment of 3.66 Bohr magnetons for all cases considered.

Natural organic matter in sedimentary basins and its relation to arsenic in anoxic ground water: the example of West Bengal and its worldwide implications [PDF]
In order to investigate the mechanism of As release to anoxic ground water in alluvial aquifers, the authors sampled ground waters from 3 piezometer nests, 79 shallow (80 m) wells, in an area 750 m by 450 m, just north of Barasat, near Kolkata (Calcutta),
