A Review on the Bulk and Surface Chemistry of Iron in Atmospherically-relevant Systems Containing Humic Like Substances (HULIS) [PDF]
, 2015 As the fourth most abundant element by mass in the Earth’s crust, iron is ubiquitous and its chemistry is rich and interdisciplinary in nature. This review synthesizes the current state of knowledge of iron chemistry in multicomponent atmospheric ...

Studies on plants that hyperaccumulate copper, cobalt and nickel : their potential for use in phytomining and phytoremediation : a thesis presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masterate of Science in Soil Science at Massey University [PDF]
, 1998 This thesis reviews three lines of research on hyperaccumulators to examine their potential for phytoremediation and phytomining. The first line of research was to test the affect of nutrient addition on biomass and nickel uptake by two nickel ...

The vertical distribution of iron stable isotopes in the North Atlantic near Bermuda [PDF]
, 2012 Seawater dissolved iron isotope ratios (δ^(56)Fe) have been measured in the North Atlantic near Bermuda. In a full-depth profile, seawater dissolved δ^(56)Fe is isotopically heavy compared to crustal values throughout the water column (δ^(56)Fe_(IRMM-014)

The use of the Ussing chamber system to investigate iron absorption by the duodenum, jejunum and ileum in the mouse : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Physiology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2002 Iron deficiency anaemia is found in approximately 30% of the worlds population and is particularly prevalent in developing countries. The majority of these deficiencies are due to insufficient absorption of iron from the diet.

Milk osteopontin has high iron-binding capacity and facilitates iron absorption in intestinal cells
Journal of Dairy Science: Insufficient absorption of iron and the consequent development of iron deficiency have serious health consequences. Hence, identification and development of iron delivery systems that can increase the bioavailability and uptake of dietary iron are ...
