Ammonium metavanadate is widely used to fabricate cathode material for Li-ion batteries.
It can also be used as a precursor to synthesize various vanadium catalysts such as vanadium carbide and nitride catalysts for hydrogenation, hydrodesulfurization, and hydrodenitrogenation reactions.
Storage of solar radiation is currently accomplished by coupling two separate devices, one that captures and converts the energy into an electrical impulse (a photovoltaic cell) and another that stores this electrical output (a battery or a supercapacitor electrochemical cell).
Metallothionein (MT) is a low-molecular-weight cysteine-rich protein which has a high affinity for metals. The synthesis of MT is induced by heavy metals such as cadmium and zinc. However, little is known about the induction of MT by tetravalent or

Carcinogen-induced formation of DNA adducts and other types of DNA lesions are the critical molecular events in the initiation of chemical carcinogenesis and modulation of such events by chemopreventive agents could be an important step in limiting neoplastic transformation in
Vanadium and its derivatives are the well-known environmental pollutants. We obtained that ammonium vanadate suppressed the alkaline (AlP) and acid (AcP) phosphatases activity in the variety of tissues. Vanadate inhibited the enzymes that take part in phosphoryl transfer reactions. Successive
Transitional metals, as vanadium, are known to exert noxious effects by generating oxidative stress. Addition of antioxidants in the diet could decrease the cytotoxic effect related to the oxidative stress. The present study, carried out in Wistar rats, is a
