Abstract:
The copper uptake and toxicity of young and market-size tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, exposed to copper sulP'hate were investigated. A series of preliminary experiments were conducted to provide requisite information for the final experiment. Preliminary experiments established uptake by the culture systems, feed and/or faeces, and. the impact of fish nutritional state on uptake. Other experiments established the median lethal concentration of copper to this species, an extrapolated minimal lethal concentration, and the optimum exposure duration and concentration for copper uptake.

Abstract:
Copper and Zn deficiencies of crops have been reported in various parts of the world. To prevent these deficiencies sulfate forms of Cu and Zn are generally used. In addition, Cu and Zn also are contributed to soils by manures, pesticides, and waste materials such as sewage sludge. An insufficient supply of Cu or Zn may reduce crop yield; whereas, excess Cu or Zn may be detrimental to both plant and animals. The field phase of this research was conducted on a Davidson silty clay to evaluate corn response to high levels of CuSO₄ and ZnSO₄ applications up to 338 kg Cu and 830 kg Zn ha⁻¹. The r

Abstract:
For trace elements, such as copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn), the bioavailability of these elements, Cu and Zn, in biosolids is important because both are essential elements and both are potential contaminants when biosolids are land applied. A greenhouse study was conducted in factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design (CRD) with four replications on a soil treated with four rates of Cu (0, 50, 100, and 150 mg/kg) and four rates of Zn (0, 150, 300, and 450 mg/kg) on celery plants to investigate the distribution and mobility of these elements as well as growth and antioxidant change

Abstract:
Prion protein (PrPC) is a cell surface glycoprotein, anchored by the GPI to the cell membrane. It seems to be involved in some neurodegenerative diseases, but its physiological function is still undefined. Many cellular functions were proposed as PrPC roles, such as the modulation of several signal transduction pathways known to promote cellular survival and the protection against oxidative stress. Nevertheless, the main hypothesis on PrPC role is in copper homeostasis. Copper is an essential micronutrient (EMN) and all EMNs (vitamins and metals) are present in bodies and foods in micro

Abstract:
Copper oxide nanoparticles (NPs) are used in an expanding range of industries including a potential for agricultural applications as a fungicide.

Many of these chemicals are metal chelators that may increase the solubility of CuO NPs, thus enhancing the impact of these NPs on plants.

Abstract:
Iron and copper are essential for nearly all known organisms as they are utilised in a wide variety of enzymatic processes. In both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, the metabolism of both metals is often intimately and inseparably linked. The host environment is limiting for Fe and Cu ions and immune-responsive mechanisms have been identified that further reduce available iron upon infection. Therefore, for a pathogen to be successful it must possess mechanisms to acquire copper and especially iron from this hostile environment. Mechanisms that facilitate iron and copper uptake have been described
