Oxidative stress is a state of impaired balance between the formation of free radicals and
antioxidant capacity of the body. It causes many defects of the body, eg lipid peroxidation …

There is accumulating evidence that the metabolism of several trace elements is altered in
diabetes mellitus and that these nutrients might have specific roles in the pathogenesis and …

The paper provides physicians and clinical chemists with statistical data (concentration
ranges, geometric mean values, selected percentiles, etc.) about 30 urinary trace elements …

The trace elements Ag, As, Au, B, Ba, Be, Bi, Cd, Ce, Co, Cs, Cu, Ga, Hf, Hg, In, La, Mn, Mo,
Ni, Pb, Pd, Rb, Rh, Ru, Sb, Se, Sn, Sr, Te, Th, Tl, U, V, W, Y and Zr were determined in 130 …

Background The main forms of mercury (Hg) exposure in the general population are
methylmercury (MeHg) from seafood, inorganic mercury (I-Hg) from food, and mercury vapor …

There is limited understanding of the toxicokinetics of bioaccumulated toxic elements and
their methods of excretion from the human body. This study was designed to assess the …

Occupational and environmental medicine traditionally dealt with elements, particularly with
heavy metals. The interest was justified by the wide exposure in the workplace and in the …

The accumulation of toxic metals in the human body is influenced by exposure and
mechanisms involved in metabolism, some of which may be under genetic control. This is …

Even though normal exposure levels to Cd may be small, the human body is inefficient at
excreting the heavy metal, so it slowly accumulates over the period of a lifetime. Eventually …
