This prospective study sought to investigate serum levels of trace elements (cobalt, copper, zinc, and selenium) and to assess their effects on pregnancy and neonatal outcomes. Serum levels of trace elements in 245 Korean pregnant women (median gestational age at delivery was 39 + 4 weeks and interquartile range was 38 + 4-40 + 1 weeks) were compared with those of 527 general adults and those o...

Four heteroleptic complexes of nickel(ii), cobalt(ii) and zinc(ii), containing a monodentate silanethiolate ligand derived from tris(2,6-diisopropylphenoxy)silanethiol (TDST), were prepared and characterized. Nickel(ii) and cobalt(ii) complexes of the formula M(NH3)2(TDST)2 (M = Ni(ii) complex , M = Co(ii) complex ) were obtained from the respective chlorides. Zinc complexes of the general form...

lead, copper, cobalt, nickel, iron and zinc ions form monocitrate complexes (negative charge) in citrate solution which is absorbed on the citrate form of anion-exchange resins (citrate as counter ion) y exchange of citrate ion with citrate complexes. these are subsequently recovered from the resin by 0.5m ammonium citrate eluent at ph 2.0. under optimized conditions, quantitative recovery was ...

The intermolecular cyclotrimerisation of terminal and internal alkynes can be catalysed by simple cobalt complexes such as a CoBr2(diimine) under mild reaction conditions when treated with zinc and zinc iodide with high regioselectivity in excellent yields.

TrzN, the broad-specificity triazine hydrolase from Arthrobacter and Nocardioides spp., is reportedly in the amidohydrolase superfamily of metalloenzymes, but previous studies suggested that a metal was not required for activity. To help resolve that conundrum, a double chaperone expression system was used to produce multimilligram quantities of functionally folded, recombinant TrzN. The TrzN o...

The optical properties of multi-functionalized cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4), cobalt zinc ferrite (Co0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4), and zinc ferrite (ZnFe2O4) nanoparticles have been enhanced by coating them with silica shell using a modified Stöber method. The ferrites nanoparticles were prepared by a modified citrate gel technique. These core/shell ferrites nanoparticles have been fired at temperatures: 400°C, 6...

Allantoinase is a suspected dinuclear metalloenzyme that catalyzes the hydrolytic cleavage of the five-member ring of allantoin (5-ureidohydantoin) to form allantoic acid. Recombinant Escherichia coli allantoinase purified from overproducing cultures amended with 2.5 mM zinc, 1 mM cobalt, or 1 mM nickel ions was found to possess approximately 1.4 Zn, 0.0 Co, 0.0 Ni, and 0.4 Fe; 0.1 Zn, 1.0 Co, ...

Homeostatic systems for essential and non-essential metals create the cellular environments in which the correct metals are acquired by metalloproteins while the incorrect ones are somehow avoided. Cyanobacteria have metal requirements often absent from other bacteria; copper in thylakoidal plastocyanin, zinc in carboxysomal carbonic anhydrase, cobalt in cobalamin but magnesium in chlorophyll, ...
