The aim of the present work was to study apossible interaction between zinc and calcium on intestinal transport ofd-galactose in jejunum of rabbit in vitro. In media with Ca2+, when ZnCl2 was present at 0.5 or 1 mM, zinc was found to reduce thed-galactose absorption significantly. In Ca2...
Pathogenesis involves a genetic predisposition and an imbalance in the host-fungus interaction (Sparber and LeibundGut-Landmann, 2017). As Malassezia yeasts are generally lipophilic, the disease is usually related to activities that cause intense sweating and the use of oily cosmetics. Other risk ...
Zinc definition: a ductile, bluish-white metallic element: used in making galvanized iron, brass, and other alloys, and as an element in voltaic cells. Symbol: Zn; atomic weight: 65.37; atomic number: 30; specific gravity. See examples of ZINC used in a
Magnesium, calcium and zinc levels of maternal and fetal tissues in magnesium deficient rats.The interaction of magnesium with two other mineral elements, calcium and zinc, was studied in maternal tissues and fetuses of pregnant rats fed a magnesium deficient diet throughout gestation. Reduction in ...
the fertile soil has raised pH and electrical conductivity, excessive accumulation of calcium carbonate, more cations, more bicarbonates, and scarcity of N and Zn25. Zinc is an important structural constituent of the vital enzyme important for protein synthesis and hormone regulations, which plants ...
and size of the nanostructures. The replacement of smaller radius atoms of magnesium ions (0.072 nm) and zinc ions (0.074 nm) with higher radius atom calcium ions (0.099 nm) in the hydroxyapatite structure at a few sites induced rearrangement of an intramolecular interaction in the backbone. ...
calcium concentration is determined at pH 2.2 while the magnesium concentration need be calculated by the difference between pH 7.0 and 2.2 at 669 nm. Chelating agents for calcium and magnesium can be interchangeable, for instance using a calcium chelator to mask interferences by calcium when measuri...
An experiment using rats was carried out to evaluate the effects of calcium deficiency on the interaction of cadmium (Cd) and zinc (Zn) in vivo. Eighty-four female rats were divided into two groups. One group was fed a calcium-sufficient diet (normal Ca group), and a second group was ...
somewhat ironic that zinc is a relatively late addition to the pantheon of signal ions in biology and medicine. However, the number of biological functions, health implications and pharmacological targets that are emerging for zinc indicate that it might turn out to be 'the calcium of the twenty...
Zinc is an essential nutrient for human health and has anti-oxidative stress and anti-inflammatory functions. The association between zinc deficiency and the development of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) has been supported by numerous studies. Supplement
