Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of substituents on complex stability aimed at designing new iron(III) and aluminum(III) chelators.

TL;DR: The inductive and resonance properties of the substituent that, as expected, lower the basicity of the phenolic and carboxylic groups, lead to a general decrease in both protonation and complex formation constants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Depleted Uranium and Human Health.

TL;DR: The possible consequences on human health of DU released in the environment are critically analyzed and data regarding DU exposure and cancer insurgence will be critically analyzed, including leukemia/lymphoma, lung cancer, uterine cervix cancer, breast cancer, bladder cancer and testicular cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Iron(III) and aluminum(III) complexes with hydroxypyrone ligands aimed to design kojic acid derivatives with new perspectives.

TL;DR: The extremely good pFe value for this second ligand gives confidence to, and opens perspectives for, the search of new kojic acid derivatives, as well as encouraging new chelators for the clinical treatment of different diseases involving the trivalent metal ions Fe(III) and Al(III).
Journal ArticleDOI

Complex formation equilibria of Cu(II) and Zn(II) with triethylenetetramine and its mono- and di-acetyl metabolites.

TL;DR: A potentiometric and spectrophotometric study of Cu(II)-complex formation equilibria of TETA, MAT and DAT is presented, to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the stoichiometries of the complexes formed and of their relative stability constants.
Book ChapterDOI

Toxicity of nanoparticles: etiology and mechanisms

TL;DR: The mechanism of toxicity is described, which is important not only to prevent the nanoparticles intoxication, but as well to prepare tailor-made health treatments.
