Tris acetylacetonate aluminium(III) (Al(acac)3), dissolved in water, is effective in producing osmotic fragility in suspended erythrocytes in the concentration range of 0.034-0.34 mmol/l. Water solutions of Tris maltolate aluminium(III) (Al(malt)3) and aluminium lactate (Al(lac)3) are also effective but the dose-response

The present paper reports data concerning aluminum accumulation and compartmentation in the central nervous system from rats exposed by inhalation to aluminum acetylacetonate [Al(acac)3] for two weeks. The complex Al(aca)3 was chosen for being neutral, hydrolytically stable and lipophilic. After

Murine neuroblastoma cells behave differently in the presence of Al(acac)3 [acac = 2,4-pentanedionate; acetylacetonate] or Al(malt)3 [malt = 3-hydroxy, 2-methyl, 4-pyronate; maltolate] with respect to Al(lac)3 [lac = 2-hydroxypropionate; lactate]. Thus, a remarkable cytotoxic effect was observed in the first
