We developed polymer-nanoparticle based MMMs with stimuli-responsive pores and high metal adsorption capacity, which allows the subsequent synthesis of metal/metal oxide nanoparticles for catalytic degradation of environmental pollutants in water. (confex.com)
Iron and iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized directly inside the polymer matrix, which provides added benefits of eliminating the particle aggregation and leaching. (confex.com)
Copper Oxide1
This study takes a new approach to biosynthesized NPs of zinc oxide, copper oxide, cerium oxide, silver, gold, and selenium influence on the clinical isolates of Aspergillus species. (ac.ir)
Arsenic2
Arsenic and mercury are associated presumably with the iron oxide phases. (cdc.gov)
By integration of nanofiltration and functionalized membranes, toxic metal oxyanions (e.g. selenium and arsenic) were significantly removed from the coal-fired power plant scrubber water. (confex.com)
Concentration2
Selenium concentration as low as 10 µg/L was obtained via iron/iron oxide reduction and adsorption. (confex.com)
Employing a 28-day latin square design with a 14-day washout, six lean, neutered male domestic shorthair cats were fed (i) commercially available adult dry feline diet containing 0.8 ppm selenium (control), (ii) control diet with added sodium selenite to achieve a dietary selenium concentration of 1.125 ppm (selenium treatment) and (iii) the control diet with additional water to achieve a moisture content of 75% wt/wt (water treatment).

and (iv) mice received intraperitoneal injection of 1.78 µg selenium/kg body weight as sodium selenite 15 min before the exposure to waterpipe smoke. (who.int)
Administration of low level of selenium, 1.78 µg selenium/kg body weight as sodium selenite, exerted protective effects against oxidative stress induced by exposure to waterpipe smoke. (who.int)
Thyroid2
Selenium also aids in fighting infections and has been shown to play a role in thyroid gland activity. (canadianvitaminshop.com)
Because selenium and water are substantially higher in canned diets compared to dry diets, objectives of this study were to determine whether increased dietary selenium or water alters the function of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis and leads to an increase in activity level. (avmi.net)
Significantly1
Treating mice with 1.78 µg selenium/kg body weight significantly restored the normal levels of these parameters. (who.int)
Species1
There are a number of reactive nitrogen oxide species, such as N2O3 and ONOO-, that can alter critical cellular components under high local concentrations of NO. However, NO can also abate the oxidation chemistry mediated by reactive oxygen species such as H2O2 and O2- that occurs at physiological levels of NO. In addition to the antioxidant chemistry, NO protects against cell death mediated by H2O2, alkylhydroperoxides, and xanthine oxidase. (researchgate.net)
Factors1
Natural Factors Selenium - 100 mcg - A vital antioxidant with properties that may slow down the aging and deterioration of tissues caused by free radical damage. (canadianvitaminshop.com)
Lungs2
In this study, we investigated the effects of exposure of mice to waterpipe smoke on oxidative stress in lungs and liver and the effects of selenium administration before smoke exposure on the oxidative stress. (who.int)
Histological examinations of lungs and liver confirmed the protective actions of selenium against the effects of exposure to waterpipe smoke. (who.int)
Effects1
Because of its potential to cause adverse health effects in exposed people, a number of regulations and guidelines have been established for selenium by various national and state agencies. (cdc.gov)
Water consumption was determined using deuterium oxide washout. (avmi.net)
There was a significant increase in daily water consumption with dietary water treatment (192 ml +/- 7.85 SEM) compared to the control (120 ml +/- 20.4) and selenium (116 ml +/- 14.6) treatments. (avmi.net)
