TL;DR: In this article, the liquid-liquid biphasic chemistry of the system quaternary alkylammonium salt- o -xylene-water-trivalent metal cation (actinide or lanthanide)-thiocyanate-nitrate anions has been studied with the purpose to obtain both information on the aqueous complex formation constants of these elements and parametric equations useful to process chemistry design.

TL;DR: In this article, the correlations between selenium and mercury concentrations in Brazilian controls and in the Indian population groups are discussed, and the correlation between seenium and methylmercury in hair samples with very high mercury levels are discussed.
Abstract: Biomonitoring of mercury contamination of Brazilian Indian population groups living in the Xingu Park, a reservation situated in the Amazonic region, has revealed very high levels of mercury in hair samples as compared to controls. Total mercury was determined by INAA in most of the tribes living in the Park and methylmercury was determined by CVAAS in samples with total mercury above 10 mg/kg. Due to the fact that selenium seems to protect animals against the toxic effects of methylmercury, it was considered also of interest to determine its concentrations in the hair samples with very high mercury levels. Selenium was determined by INAA via the short-lived radionuclide 77mSe (T 1/2 = 17.45 s). The correlations between selenium and mercury concentrations in Brazilian controls and in the Indian population groups are discussed.

TL;DR: The artificial and natural activities determined in this study were found to be below the maximum permissible levels as established by national legislation, and these mushroom species can be normally consumed by the population without any apparent risks to human health.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of the supports on the catalytic activity of Pt for AmER was investigated using electrochemical (cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry) and direct ammonia fuel cell (DAFC) experiments.

TL;DR: The findings ratify that ApPDT parameters play a pivotal role in cell susceptibility and suggest that apoptosis is involved in parasite death regardless of MB-mediated Ap PDT protocol.
