Human brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) encodes a protein product consisting of a C-terminal mature domain (mature BDNF) and an N-terminal prodomain, which is an intrinsically disordered protein. A common single n...

Micronutrient undernutrition during critical periods of growth has become an important health issue in developing and developed countries, particularly among pregnant women and children having an imbalanced diet. Zinc is...

Background Zinc deficiency‐like (ZDL) syndrome is an inherited defect of Fleckvieh calves, with striking similarity to bovine hereditary zinc deficiency (BHZD). However, the causative mutation in a phospholipase D4 enc...

Nano- and micro-oxides are promising materials due to several interesting characteristics such as photocatalytic and antimicrobial role. In this work, zinc oxide nanorods were obtained by microwave-assisted solvothermal ...

En el presente trabajo se estudió el crecimiento de los nanorods de ZnO en un sustrato plano que contienen semillas irradiadas con rayos gamma y su habilidad para eliminar fotocatalíticamente bacterias en agua. La capa...

High-quality single crystalline zinc oxide nanowires were grown on silver and gold coated plastic substrates for the fabrication of a sandwich-like nanogenerator using the aqueous chemical growth method. The applicabilit...

The properties of two new lipophilic isomeric phthalocyanines 2,9(10),16(17),23(24)-tetrakis-[(2-dimethylamino)ethylsulfanyl] phthalocyaninatozinc(II) (Pc9) and 1,8(11),15(18),22(25)-tetrakis[(2- dimethylamino)ethylsulfa...

Abstract Various silicate compounds have been extensively used for scaffold fabrication via electrospinning. However, harnessing the bioactive properties of Calcium silicate (CS) and Zinc silicate (ZS) are less explored ...

The current study evaluated acute and subchronic toxicity of arsenite (As3+) and zinc (Zn2+) to stage 25 tadpoles of Rhinella arenarum in both single and joint laboratory exposures. LC50 values obtained for As3+ were ele...

El zinc (Zn), el cobre (Cu) y el selenio (Se) contribuyen a la actividad antioxidante del organismo, previniendo el envejecimiento prematuro y el desarrollo de enfermedades crónicas. Existen reportes de poblaciones con ...

ABSTRACT Zinc is a critical nutrient for all living organisms, including bacterial pathogens such as Corynebacterium diphtheriae, the causative agent of the severe human respiratory disease diphtheria. As such, zinc acqu...

Foi estudada a biodisponibilidade de zinco em ratos recebendo uma dieta regional de Manaus, AM. A dieta foi elaborada segundo os dados de SHRIMPTON & GIUGLIANO, (1979) para famílias com rendimentos inferiores a 2 salár...

Foi avaliada a biodisponibilidade de zinco e o efeito da adição da farinha de banana, em dieta de pré-escolares de uma creche de Manaus, pelo método de depleção e repleção, em ratos. As refeições servidas aos p...

Utilizaram-se 140 coelhos das raças Nova Zelândia Branco e Califórnia, com 60 dias de idade, de ambos os sexos, distribuídos em 14 tratamentos experimentais, com o objetivo de determinar a biodisponibilidade de zinco...

Compararam-se os efeitos de diferentes fontes e doses de zinco na dieta de ovinos Santa Inês sobre os níveis de zinco plasmático e de fosfatase alcalina. Foram utilizados 40 cordeiros, recém-desmamados, com média de...

El óxido de Zinc es un material de particular interés a causa de sus propiedades ópticas y eléctricas únicas, que son exploradas para muchas aplicaciones en optoelectrónica y nanoelectrónica; y que puede ser sinte...

Zinc Selenide Nanoparticles (NPs) were fabricated by the aqueous techneque using cold plasma under atmospheric pressure with an exposure time of 3 min and a gas flow rate of 3 liters per minute. films' structural charact...
