AI Article Synopsis

Article Abstract

The distribution of magnesium in plasma, bound to proteins (pMg), complexed to low molecular weight anions (cMg) and ionized (iMg), was compared by size exclusion chromatography and an approach using a combination of atomic absorption spectroscopy, ion selective electrodes and 31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The distribution of pMg:cMg:iMg was 28:13:59 as determined by chromatography and 26:14:60 as determined by the latter methodology. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that plasma proteins and weak complexing anions correspond to high and low affinity magnesium binding ligands in plasma, respectively.

Study on Synergistically Improving Corrosion Resistance of Microarc Oxidation Coating on Magnesium Alloy by Loading of Sodium Tungstate and Silane Treatment.

Materials (Basel)

January 2025

Qinghai Provincial Key Laboratory of Nanomaterials and Technology, School of Chemistry and Materials Science, Qinghai Minzu University, Xining 810007, China.

Sodium tungstate (NaWO) was filled into the micropores and onto the surface of a magnesium alloy microarc oxidation (MAO) coating by means of vacuum impregnation. Subsequently, the coating was sealed through silane treatment to synergistically boost its corrosion resistance. The phase composition of the coating was inspected using XRD.

This study investigated the elemental composition of , addressing the gap in comprehensive trace element profiling of this medicinal plant. The research aimed to determine the distribution of macronutrients, micronutrients, and beneficial and potentially toxic elements across different plant parts (seeds, leaves, stems, and roots). Using ICP-OES analysis, two digestion methods were employed to capture both complex and labile elements.

Background: Magnesium (Mg) is essential for plant growth and development and plays critical roles in physiological and biochemical processes. Mg deficiency adversely affects growth of plants by limiting shoot and root development, disturbing the structure and membranes of the grana, reducing photosynthesis efficiency, and lowering net CO assimilation. The MGT (Magnesium transporter) family is responsible for the absorption and transportation of magnesium in plants.

Constipation is correlated with diminished cognitive function, revealing a possible rectum-brain connection. In this counter-balanced crossover trial, 13 elite triathletes underwent a Stroop test to assess cognitive function and executive control. The Stroop test was conducted both with and without magnesium oxide intake, with a 1-week washout period between sessions.
