Journal ArticleDOI
The meaning of aluminium exposure on human health and aluminium-related diseases.
Guido Crisponi,Daniela Fanni,Clara Gerosa,Sonia Nemolato,Valeria Marina Nurchi,Miriam Crespo-Alonso,Joanna Izabela Lachowicz,Gavino Faa +7 more
TL;DR: The aim of this review is to attempt to answer extremely important questions related to aluminium-related diseases, with particular attention to its putative role in bone and neurodegenerative human diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complex formation equilibria of Cu(II) and Zn(II) with triethylenetetramine and its mono- and di-acetyl metabolites.
Valeria Marina Nurchi,Guido Crisponi,Miriam Crespo-Alonso,Joanna Izabela Lachowicz,Zbigniew Szewczuk,Garth J. S. Cooper,Garth J. S. Cooper +6 more
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.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kill or cure: Misuse of chelation therapy for human diseases
Guido Crisponi,Valeria Marina Nurchi,Joanna Izabela Lachowicz,Miriam Crespo-Alonso,Maria Antonietta Zoroddu,Massimiliano Francesco Peana +5 more
TL;DR: The aim of this review is to discuss how this “false chelation therapy” developed and in which diseases it is currently applied.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Speciation Study on the Perturbing Effects of Iron Chelators on the Homeostasis of Essential Metal Ions.
Guido Crisponi,Valeria Marina Nurchi,Miriam Crespo-Alonso,Gavino Sanna,Maria Antonietta Zoroddu,Giancarla Alberti,Raffaela Biesuz +6 more
TL;DR: The results of the study show that a significant amount of essential metal ions is complexed whenever the chelating agent concentration exceeds the amount necessary to coordinate all disposable iron —a frequently occurring situation during chelation therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomass against emerging pollution in wastewater: Ability of cork for the removal of ofloxacin from aqueous solutions at different pH
Miriam Crespo-Alonso,Valeria Marina Nurchi,Raffaela Biesuz,Giancarla Alberti,Nadia Spano,Maria Itria Pilo,Gavino Sanna +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the ability of cork for the removal of ofloxacin from aqueous solutions has been evaluated and the K and Qmax values obtained by fitting the data with Langmuir equation are discussed as a function of pH and cork size.
