A ternary ZnO/Ag/CdO nanocomposite was synthesized using thermal decomposition method. The resulting nanocomposite was characterized by X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The ZnO/Ag/CdO nanocomposite exhibited enhanced photocatalytic activity under
Cadmium acetate (CdAc) induced apoptosis in primary alveolar type 2 cells and Clara cells from rat lung. Phosphorylation of the MAPKs ERK1/2, p38 and JNK was markedly increased in both cell types 15 min to 2 h after start of
Previously, we have demonstrated that cadmium acetate significantly induces hprt mutation frequency in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 and that 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole (3AT), a catalase inhibitor, potentiates the mutagenicity of cadmium [Chem. Res. Toxicol. 9 (1996) 1360-1367]. In this study, we investigate

The lung is a target organ for cadmium (Cd) toxicity. Apoptosis induced by cadmium acetate (CdAc) was studied in alveolar type 2 cells and Clara cells isolated from rat lung. Relatively low concentrations of CdAc (1-10 micromol/L) induced apoptosis after

We recently reported a phenotypic association between reduced susceptibility to zinc and methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus CC398 isolates from Danish swine (F. M. Aarestrup, L. M. Cavaco, and H. Hasman, Vet. Microbiol. 142:455-457, 2009). The aim of this study
Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
