The study authors were particularly concerned with
iron concentration in insects, since iron is an important nutrient that's often lacking in vegetarian diets.
Episodic increases in
iron concentrations of this magnitude or larger were probably frequent in the past because a large component of the undercurrent originates in the convergent island - arc region of Papua New Guinea, which has experienced intensive volcanic, erosional and seismic activity over the past 16 million years.
The National Multiple Sclerosis Society awarded a $ 560,000 grant to Dr. Yao of the Rocco Ortenzio Neuroimaging Center at Kessler Foundation, to study the relationship between
brain iron concentration and fatigue symptoms in MS.
Lithium products are used directly in technical applications, particularly where lithium products with
low iron concentration are necessary to meet the highly specialised requirements of end users.
Photosynthesis is reduced among phytoplankton in water with
poor iron concentrations as compared with those in iron - rich conditions, even though phytoplankton in both conditions make the same amount of chlorophyll.
These new findings will help scientists to better understand the global cycles of carbon and oxygen in the periods of higher
soluble iron concentration, also shedding light on the processes in which iron stopped being food and became poison for cyanobacteria and other photosynthesizing organisms.
Researchers investigating the microbe Deinococcus radiodurans have found that high manganese and low
iron concentrations facilitate extreme radiation resistance in this microbe by protecting proteins from ionizing radiation - induced damage.
The cause of microcytosis is not known; however, decreased
serum iron concentration, normal to increased ferritin concentration, and accumulation of stainable iron in the liver suggest that microcytosis is associated with abnormal iron metabolism rather than absolute iron deficiency.
To conduct this line of research will require developing new techniques for imaging the basal ganglia, as well as for the analysis of
iron concentrations in gray matter.
Bing Yao, PhD, has been awarded a $ 560,000 grant from the National Multiple Sclerosis Society to study the association between cognitive fatigue and
brain iron concentration, as estimated by MRI susceptibility contrast imaging.
Sediment cores show that in the past,
higher iron concentrations in the equatorial Pacific did not enhance growth of carbon - storing algae
Excessive caffeine may reduce
the iron concentration found in breast milk.
The researchers also used a geochemical model to show how a global system with high
iron concentration and low phosphorus availability combined with low nitrogen availability in ocean shallows could perpetuate itself in a low - oxygen world.
In the iron - poor environment of the human body, where
the iron concentration is about one atom per 1.6 liters of blood, initially susceptible P. aeruginosa might find it difficult to develop resistance to pyocin and resistant P. aeruginosa might grow so slowly the immune system would be able to clear them, Inglis said.
When sea lampreys (Petromyzon marinus) mature, growing their jawless toothy gapes and sucking blood of other fishes,
iron concentrations in blood drop — to about 10 times healthy human levels.
They found that soil pH,
iron concentrations and total cadmium levels were excellent predictors of how much cadmium is biologically available for plants.
, has been awarded a $ 560,000 grant from the National Multiple Sclerosis Society to study the association between cognitive fatigue and brain
iron concentration, as estimated by MRI susceptibility contrast imaging.
We showed that the transition from closed to open state leads to significant decreases in aqueous pH to circumneutral values and significant increases in aqueous hydrogen sulfide and
iron concentrations to 10.6 μM and 59.1 μM, respectively, due to sediment AVS oxidation following sediment resuspension.
White beans have one of the highest
iron concentrations with almost 8 mg per cooked cup.
[15]
The iron concentration in tempeh isn't nearly as high, but each cup of the fermented soy product still contains a respectable 4.5 mg.
Page 184 «When the solids are disposed of by rendering, the use of organic polymers is preferred to avoid high aluminum or
iron concentrations in the rendered product produced.»
But we argue here that only small (2 nM) increases in
the iron concentration in source waters of the upwelling Equatorial Undercurrent are needed to fuel intense diatom production across the entire eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean.
