Study of zinc deficiency in pregnant women [PDF]

, 2004
Zinc is one of the elements necessary for growth and health in human. Some evidences indicate that the zinc deficiency is one of real difficulties for the public health in developed and developing countries.

Pioglitazone plus (−)‐epigallocatechin gallate: a novel approach to enhance osteogenic performance in aged bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Aged human bmMSCs are seeded in the scaffold. Osteoblastic induction can slightly increase cell's bone‐forming activity to produce bone‐like tissues, shown as the sporadic xylenol orange‐stained spots (the lower left image). Notably, pioglitazone plus EGCG co‐treatment dramatically increases cell's bone‐forming activity and bone‐like tissue production (

Eliminating fluoride-induced corrosion of aluminum cathodes in zinc electrowinning by aluminum ion complexation

Journal of Materials Research and Technology
This paper discusses the effect of fluoride on the corrosion behavior of aluminum alloy used as a mother blank in zinc electrowinning, focusing on the mitigation of the corrosive process by aluminum ion addition and fluoride complexation.

Low-energy structures of zinc borohydride Zn(BH$_4$)$_2$

, 2012
We present a systematic study of the low-energy structures of zinc borohydride, a crystalline material proposed for the hydrogen storage purpose. In addition to the previously proposed structures, many new low-energy structures of zinc borohydride are ...

Identification of a Hemolysis Threshold That Increases Plasma and Serum Zinc Concentration. [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Plasma or serum zinc concentration (PZC or SZC) is the primary measure of zinc status, but accurate sampling requires controlling for hemolysis to prevent leakage of zinc from erythrocytes.

Polarization‐resolved femtosecond Vis/IR spectroscopy tailored for resolving weak signals in biological samples using minimal sample volume

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Unique biological samples, such as site‐specific mutant proteins, are available only in limited quantities. Here, we present a polarization‐resolved transient infrared spectroscopy setup with referencing to improve signal‐to‐noise tailored towards tracing small signals. We provide an overview of characterizing the excitation conditions for polarization‐

Estimation of salivary copper, zinc, iron and copper to zinc ratio in oral submucous fibrosis patients and its comparison with healthy individuals

Journal of Indian Academy of Oral Medicine and Radiology, 2019
Background: Trace elements have been found to be altered in oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF), an oral potentially malignant disorder which occurs as a result of a derangement in collagen metabolism. The literature on variation observed in the parameters of

Differential regulation of ZFAS1 splice variants by endoplasmic reticulum stress in hepatocyte cell lines

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ZFAS1 is a lncRNA promoting cell proliferation and migration, exhibiting high expression in various cancers. It is conserved, widely expressed, and produces multiple splice variants with unclear roles. We identified several splice variants in hepatocyte models, and found that inhibiting or suppressing regulators of the unfolded protein response (PERK ...

The temperature uniformity within U-style silicon located in a novel 80-rod siemens reactor with a high silicon core

Results in Engineering
The previous studies focus on simplified reactor configurations with 12 or 24 pairs of rods and do not account for the complex thermal and electrical behaviors and multi-ring interaction present in a large-scale reactor.

Serum Copper, Zinc, and Iron Levels in Patients with Alzheimer's Disease: A Meta-Analysis of Case-Control Studies

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2017
Background: Many publications have investigated the association between metal ions and the risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but the results were ambiguous.Aims: The objective of this study was to assess the association between the serum levels of metals
