Project Description
Mercury is one of the most toxic trace elements. Because of the volatility of elemental mercury (Hg0) and the high reactivity of the mercuric ion (Hg2+), it is also one of the most elusive. The globa...
In natural waters and in culture media, the bioavailability of trace metals to microorganisms depends on their binding to a variety of weak and strong complexing agents. See also Metal ...
Cadmium, (Cd), an element which has been thought to be only toxic to organisms, behaves exactly like a nutrient in the sea: it is depleted to very low concentrations as result of biological uptake a...
This project aims to identify the major processes responsible for the mercury escape from hotspot areas, including the methylation and demethylation, to quantify Hg fluxes between sediment, water and ...
Countless geochemical and environmental processes occur on the microscopic-scale. As such, a fundamental understanding of these microscopic phenomena is necessary to understand the influence of these ...
The objectives of this project are: to quantify the dynamics of different chemical species of trace elements in soil using techniques such as HPLC-ICP-MS and synchrotron radiation X-ray absorp...
The Selenium and Vitamin E Cancer Prevention Trial (SELECT) is a research study to determine if selenium and vitamin E can help prevent prostate cancer. SELECT is funded by ...
The aim of the project is to characterise molecular forms (species) of selenium in food of plant and animal origin. Furthermore, the research aims at assessing the bioavailability in humans of seleniu...
The essential trace mineral, selenium is indispensable for the function of the human body. Selenium exerts its effects via the selenoproteins that often participate in antioxidative or catalytic pro...
The aim of SIPE is to promote and increase the use of research results in support of Standards (related to the environmental compartments air, water, soil and waste) to stakeholders from Research, S...

We conduct research in Organometallic Compounds in the Environment, paying special attention in the Biogeochemical Cycling of Mercury in Aquatic Environments. Mercury (Hg) is a ubiqui...
The main goal of this Project is to allow to continue the basic and instrumental research carried out by the Analytical Spectrometry Group of Oviedo´s University. The general objecti...
The overall objective of this project is to evaluate the impact of key constituents captured from power plant air streams (arsenic, selenium and mercury) on the disposal and utilization of coal combus...
Nowadays, it is well known that Selenium plays an important role as chemopreventive agent in carcinogenesis and that is the reason why it has been widely used in nutritional supplements. This ...
