Stepwise formation constants corresponding to 1:1 vanadyl complexes with methionine, phenyl­ alanine and threonine have been determined at 25 °C, and at various ionic concentrations, viz. 0.01, 0.1 and 0.3 M, maintained by the addition of potassium chloride solution. Thermodynamic stability constants have been obtained by extrapolation of log K values to zero ionic strength. Logarithms of the o...

The biological fate of a chelated vanadium source is investigated by/n vivo spectroscopic methods to elucidate the chemical form in which the metal ion is accumulated. A pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance study of vanadyl ions in kidney tissue, taken from rats previously treated with bis(ethylmaltolato)oxovanadium(IV) (BEOV) in drinking water, is presented. A combined approach using stimula...

INTRODUCTION Vanadium compounds are insulin like drugs which are accompanied with nephrotoxicity and hepatotoxicity as their major side effects. Aerobic exercise is well known as an approach to reduce the side effects of many drugs. OBJECTIVES This study was designed to determine the role of aerobic exercise against vanadyl sulphate induced nephrotoxicity and hepatotoxicity in male rats. MA...

A new series of vanadyl(IV), manganese(II), iron(II), nickel(II) and copper(II) complexes of N-[phenyl(pyrrolidin-1-yl)methyl]benzamide(PBB) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, molar conductance, IR, electronic, EPR spectra and magnetic measurements. Conductance measurements indicate that the above complexes are non-electrolytes. The spectral data show that, the ligan...
