Zinc Supplementation Attenuates Cardiac Remodeling after Experimental Myocardial Infarction
(2018-10-01)
Background/Aims: The objective of our study was to evaluate the effects of zinc supplementation on cardiac remodeling following acute myocardial infarction in rats. Methods: Animals were subdivided into 4 groups and observed ...
Morphological evolution of zinc oxide originating from zinc hydroxide carbonate
(1997-11-14)
Zinc oxide can be obtained by thermal decomposition of hydrozincite, a topochemical reaction. This work reports the relation between zinc oxide morphology and the precursor zinc hydroxide carbonate precipitation time. The ...

Zinc Deficiency in Latin America and the Caribbean
(SAGE, 2015)
Background: Zinc deficiency affects multiple vital functions in the life cycle, especially growth. Limited information is available on the magnitude of zinc deficiency in Latin America and the Caribbean.
Objective: To ...
Possible mechanism by which zinc protects the testicular function of rats exposed to cigarette smoke
(Polish Acad Sciences Inst Pharmacology, 2012-11-01)
Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the changes in testicular function of rats due to cigarette smoke exposure and the possible mechanism by which zinc protects against these alterations. Methods: Male Wistar ...
Zinc oxide surface functionalization and related effects on corrosion resistance of titanium implants
(2018-03-01)
Important clinical concerns in orthopedics and dental implantology are associated with a significant release of titanium (Ti) metal ions and debris due to the low corrosion resistance of this material. Chemical modifications ...
Zinc: What Is Its Role in Lung Cancer?
(IntechOpen, 2016)
Recently, zinc emerged as an important signaling molecule, activating intracellular pathways and regulating cell fate, although our knowledge remains incomplete. Zinc is required in many enzymatic and metabolic pathways, ...
First-principle calculations of the dielectric function of zinc-blende and wurtzite InN
(2001)
The imaginary part of the dielectric function of zinc-blende and wurtzite InN has been calculated using a full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method. We show that the exchange potential of Engel and Vosko gives ...
Study of crystallite size and strain as a function of morphological evolution in zinc oxide powder obtained from hydroxycarbonate precursor
(2001-09-01)
In this work, zinc oxide samples were obtained from hydroxycarbonate by thermal decomposition at 300°C. Zinc hydroxycarbonate samples were produced by homogeneous precipitation over different periods of time. The method ...
