A number of metallic elements are found in the body. Most of these metals are actually essential for a person's health. An example is iron, an element responsible for the prevention of anemia. Iron is known as a trace metal in the body and as the word trace means, it comes in the lowest concentration. Excessive dosage of iron in the body can lead to serious problems like iron toxicity, and some other developments of deficiency to other trace elements like zinc and copper.
The density of trace metals when considered toxic or heavy to the body, is when it becomes denser than 5 times more than water. Most trace metallic elements are composed with stability because of the density of its components; as a result, they are not normally metabolized in the system. Toxic metals include nickel, lead, mercury, cadmium, arsenic, platinum, aluminum and copper. These metallic elements can be found in the body, yet they have no significant role in the body's processes whatsoever. Instead, they can be highly toxic.
The entrance of these elements in the body happens through inhaling, ingesting and absorbing these chemicals. They are usually found in the air, on water, and on the food we take. Once these metallic chemicals are built up inside the body, the accumulation of toxins can develop. Even if a person is not really exposed to a certain chemical, it is still possible that toxic levels of accumulation can be reached, as the tissues absorb any chemicals.
Toxic metal exposure is not really a modern occurrence, as historic data cites heavy metal contamination of wine made from grapes, which are contained in jars with lead details during the Roman Empire, resulting to its fall. Also, the character in the famous story, Alice in Wonderland's Mad Hatter was derived from the real happening of hat makers in early 19th century, as they used the element mercury to make the hats they made stiff, which then was suspected to cause there psychosis.
As the result of the dramatic increase of heavy metal use in industrial works and processes over the last 50 years, human exposures to heavy and toxic metals has risen significantly. As of this moment, the most common chronic exposure of humans to heavy metal is the use of amalgam with mercury to fill in dental processes. Lead, among the toxic elements has also been found in tap water and has been used as an ingredient for paint. Lead in minimal amounts is also mixed in cosmetics, hair care products, toothpaste and soaps, according to studies. Thus, the society today definitely has no escape form these toxic chemicals.
High levels of lead results to brain cell death, learning disabilities, ADD, hyperactivity, lessened intelligence, and poor academic abilities, research shows.
To protect children, particularly those with ADHD or ADD, EDTA chelation, a process that incorporates a chelating agent to the blood circulation through intravenous therapy promotes removal of these heavy metals. EDTA oral chelation is seen as an easy and affordable way to toxic chemical plaques and heavy-metal poisoning from lead, mercury, aluminum and etc, from these children with ADHD.

Metals, Fertility, and Reproductive Toxicity $129.95 Environmental endocrine disruptors have been at the heart of discussions about chemicals and their effects on fertility, but the focus has been on organic compounds and the role of metals has been largely overlooked - until now. Taking an organ-system-based approach, Metals, Fertility, and Reproductive Toxicity examines the effects of metals found in the everyday environment on fertility rates in humans and animal populations. This volume summarizes and evaluates the literature in the area of metal effects on fertility and reproduction in humans, laboratory animals, and wildlife. International experts have contributed chapters that explore how the ovary, testes, uterine system, and neuroendocrine system, among others, respond to metal exposure. Reviewing both current knowledge and cutting edge data, the chapters focus on either a particular metal or a particular population. A massive amount of data on this subject has been generated, summarized, and reviewed over the years. While there are many books available on metals toxicity and on reproductive toxicity, no current book explores both in the same volume. Culling information from throughout the literature, Metals, Fertility, and Reproductive Toxicity supplies an in-depth look at the role of metals in endocrine disruption and the spectrum of mechanisms involving metals that can influence reproduction. |

Physics of Amorphous Metals $247 The discovery of bulk metallic glasses has led to a large increase in the industrial importance of amorphous metals, and this is expected to continue. This book is the first to describe the theoretical physics of amorphous metals, including the important theoretical development of the last 20 years. The renowned authors stress the universal aspects in their description of the phonon or magnon low-energy excitations in the amorphous metals, e.g. concerning the remarkable consequences of the properties of these excitations for the thermodynamics at low and intermediate temperatures. Tunneling excitations - another universal aspect of amorphous systems and responsible for many of their properties - is also intensively treated. Although the book is focused on analytical approaches, it also describes the numerical calculation of the atomic structure, the electronic excitations, and the itinerant magnetic properties of amorphous metallic alloys, while considering modern applications. While both theorists and experimentalist interested in amorphous metals will profit from this book, it will also be useful supplementary reading in courses on solid-state physics and material sciences. |

The Nutritional Trace Metals $209.99 The Nutritional Trace Metals covers the roles played by trace metals in human metabolism, a relatively neglected area of human metabolism and nutrition. The book focuses its attention on the vital roles played by the relatively small number of trace metal nutrients as components of a wide range of functional proteins. Its structure and content are largely based on the approach adopted by the author, Professor Conor Reilly, during more than 30 years of teaching nutrition to a wide range of undergraduate and postgraduate students. The introductory chapter covers the roles of metals in life processes, the metal content of living systems and metals in food and diets. This is followed by chapters, each dealing with an individual trace metal. Those discussed are iron, zinc, copper, selenium, chromium, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, boron, vanadium, cobalt, silicon and arsenic. In each case attention is given to the metal's chemistry and metabolic roles, including absorption, transport, losses, status and essentiality, as well as the consequences both of deficiency and excess. The Nutritional Trace Metals is essential reading for nutritionists, dietitians and other health professionals, including physicians, who wish to know more about these vital components of the diet. The book will also be of value to food scientists, especially those involved in food fortification and pharmaceutical product formulation. It will be an invaluable reference volume in libraries of universities and research establishments involved in nutrition teaching and research.

Organic Synthesis Using Transition Metals $155 Transition metals open up new opportunities for synthesis, because their means of bonding and their reaction mechanisms differ from those of the elements of the s and p blocks. In the last two decades the subject has mushroomed - established reactions are seeing both technical improvements and increasing numbers of applications, and new reactions are being developed. The practicality of the subject is demonstrated by the large number of publications coming from the process development laboratories of pharmaceutical companies, and its importance is underlined by the fact that three Nobel prizes have been awarded for discoveries in this field in the 21st Century already. Organic Synthesis Using Transition Metals, 2nd Edition considers the ways in which transition metals, as catalysts and reagents, can be used in organic synthesis, both for pharmaceutical compounds and for natural products. It concentrates on the bond-forming reactions that set transition metal chemistry apart from "classical" organic chemistry. Each chapter is extensively referenced and provides a convenient point of entry to the research literature. Topics covered include: introduction to transition metals in organic synthesis coupling reactions C-H activation carbonylative coupling reactions alkene and alkyne insertion reactions electrophilic alkene and alkyne complexes reactions of alkyne complexes carbene complexes h 3 - or p -allyl -allyl complexes diene, dienyl and arene complexes cycloaddition and cycloisomerisation reactions For this second edition the text has been extensively revised and expanded to reflect the significant improvements and advances in the field since the first edition, as well as the large number of new transition metal-catalysed processes that have come to prominence in the last 10 years – for example the extraordinary progress in coupling reactions using “designer” ligands, catalysis using gold complexes, new opportunities arising from metathesis chemistry, and C-H activation – without neglecting the well established chemistry of metals such as palladium. Organic Synthesis Using Transition Metals, 2nd Edition will find a place on the bookshelves of advanced undergraduates and postgraduates working in organic synthesis, catalysis, medicinal chemistry and drug discovery. It is also useful for practising researchers who want to refresh and enhance their knowledge of the field. |
