Unlabelled: The hypothesis was tested that a kinetical flow equilibrium of uptake and efflux reactions is responsible for balancing the cellular zinc content. The experiments were done with the metal-resistant bacterium . In pulse-chase experiments, the cells were loaded with radioactive Zn and chased with the 100-fold concentration of non-radioactive zinc chloride.

Isotope source tracing enables to accurately determine the fate of nutrients that are applied with fertilizers to soils. While this approach is well established for major nutrients such as nitrogen, it is not yet established for trace metals. Here, we aimed to determine the fate of the micronutrient zinc (Zn) and the contaminant cadmium (Cd) that were applied with an organic fertilizer to a soil-wheat system.

Zn MAS NMR spectroscopy was used to characterize the state of Zn in Zn-modified zeolites ZSM-5. Two Zn enriched zeolite samples were prepared: by solid-state exchange with metal Zn (Zn/ZSM-5 sample) and by ion exchange with zinc formate solution (ZnO/H-ZSM-5 sample), both containing 3.8 wt% Zn.

Background: Zinc-biofortified potatoes have considerable potential to reduce zinc deficiency because of their low levels of phytate, an inhibitor of zinc absorption, and their high consumption, especially in the Andean region of Peru.
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to measure fractional and total zinc absorption from a test meal of biofortified compared with regular potatoes.
Methods: We undertook a single-blinded randomized crossover study (using Zn and Zn stable isotopes) in which 37 women consumed 500-g biofortified or regular potatoes twice a day.
