High Copper Levels Promotes Broiler Hepatocyte Mitochondrial Permeability Transition In Vivo and In Vitro.

This study was to examine the effects of copper on the mitochondrial non-specific pore. Three hundred sixty, one-day-old, healthy Arbor Acres (AA) broilers were fed with different concentrations (11,...

Copper and Ceruloplasmin Abnormalities in Alzheimer's Disease.

The idea that copper may play a role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease is gaining momentum. Serum copper and ceruloplasmin were measured by both enzymatic (eCp) and immunologic (iCp) methods...

Copper(II) Thiaethyneporphyrin and Copper(II) 21-Phosphoryl N-confused Porphyrin Hybrids. Intramolecular Copper(II)-Carbon Interaction Inside of a Porphyrinoid Surrounding.

Stabilization of unusual organocopper(II) species via the very efficient protection of the copper(II)-carbon bond has been achieved encapsulating the copper(II) center in the coordination core of suit...

Complexation of copper(II) with chitosan nanogels: Toward control of microbial growth.

Pure chitosan nanogels were produced, used to adsorb copper(II), and their antimicrobial activities were assessed. The complexation of copper(II) with chitosan solutions and dispersions was studied us...
