Tissue-specific TfR expression in organs of immature mice after chronic exposure to CoCl2
Gluhcheva Y., Petrova E., (Corresponding) Pavlova E., Tinkov A., AJSUVAKOVA O., Rashev P., Vladov I., Skalny A.
Topic:
Heavy metals in the environment
The wide use of cobalt (Co) due to anthropogenic and industrial activities has increased its concentration in the environment in the last years. Cobalt chloride (CoCl2) is the most commonly used agent in experimental models for inducing chemical hypoxia. The present study was designed to elucidate...Read more

Novel applications of Molecular Biology to aid in environmental bioremediation
(Corresponding) Duffield-Healy M., Fernaud S.
Topic:
Heavy metals in the environment
Bioremediation of environmental heavy metal contamination presents a valuable tool for an effective and low-cost method of containing and minimizing the harm of heavy metal contaminations. However, many common bacteria used in this application such as Acidothiobacillus ferroxidans do not have...Read more
