Copper, iron, and zinc imbalances in severely degenerated brain regions in Alzheimer's disease: possible relation to oxidative stress
TL;DR: Copper (Cu), iron (Fe), and zinc (Zn) levels in five different brain regions were determined by instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) in samples from Alzheimer's disease patients and age-matched control subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serum Zinc Levels and Alzheimer's Disease
L. L. Rulon,J. D. Robertson,Mark A. Lovell,M. A. Deibel,William D. Ehmann,William R. Markesbery +5 more
TL;DR: Concentrations of zinc in postmortem serum and four brain regions were measured by flame atomic absorption spectrometry and instrumental neutron activation analysis, respectively, in nine Alzheimer’s disease and eight control subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lead determinations in human bone by particle induced X-ray emission (PIXE) and graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS)
TL;DR: The range of Pb concentrations in human rib bone was 1.4-11.5 μg/g for the trabecular surface by PIXE, 1.3-45 μg/ g for the cortical surface by GFAAS, and 1.54 -11.75 µg for whole bone by GfaAS as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non-destructive analysis of copper in human brain tissue by neutron activation analysis using coincidence and anti-coincidence techniques
TL;DR: An INAA method involving a short epithermal neutron irradiation and counting with a Compton suppression system was developed and results are compared to those based on coincidence spectrometry of annihilation photons from positron emitting 12.7-h64Cu after a long irradiation.
Journal Article
Aluminum in motor neuron disease spinal cord
M. A. Deibel,William D. Ehmann,John M. Candy,Paul G. Ince,Pamela J. Shaw,William R. Markesbery +5 more
TL;DR: The lack of an MND-control difference for spinal cord Al concentrations and the relatively low levels of Al found in MND spinal cord do not support the hypothesis of a primary role for Al in the pathogenesis of MND.
