J Nutr Biochem . 2001 Feb; 12(2):73-80. PMID: 11182549
Interactions between metals of similar coordination chemistry are of relevance to infant nutrition due to the highly variable metal:metal ratios found in formulas. Using ratios similar to those found in...

J Nutr Biochem . 2001 Feb; 12(2):66-72. PMID: 11182548
Interactions between Ca(+2) and Zn(+2) at the intestinal brush border membrane occur via unclear mechanisms. We hypothesized that Zn(+2) and Ca(+2) are transported across the brush border membrane via a...

Lipids . 1997 Jan; 32(1):51-5. PMID: 9075193
Twenty-one groups of weanling male Wistar rats were fed semipurified diets containing 5% (w/w) of different dietary fats. After 2 wk, liver sphingomyelin (SM) fatty acid composition was determined. The...
