“…Iron, an essential micronutrient for oxygen transport and storage, for muscle and cardiac metabolism as well as for protein synthesis and degradation [26], was determined in the highest concentrations of the analyzed elements, respectively between 2.576 -3.621 mg/kg. The average iron concentration in the studied walnut oil was 3.113 ± 0.427 mg/kg.…”

“…Although the biological function of nickel is still unclear in the human body, nickel is found in higher concentrations in nucleic acids, especially RNA, and is thought to be involved in the structure or function of proteins. It is considered that nickel could play a role, as a cofactor, in activating certain enzymes involved in the breakdown or use of glucose [26].…”

“…The Zinc metal bonded with many enzyme systems such as metalloenzyme and enzyme activators [6][7][8]. Zinc was determined in human blood for medical diagnosis [9], while in the environmental samples (water and soil), the Zinc concentration was determined to access the pollution index [10]. The total Zinc concentration in the biological and environmental samples does not indicate the fact of diagnosis and pollution [11].…”

“…19 Recently, atomic absorption spectrometry has become one of the most common techniques for biochemical analysis of trace elements. It is used mainly to measure the concentrations of trace elements in the samples of cancer patients 20 , toxoplasmosis patients 21 , schizophrenia patients 22 and major depressive disorder patients. 23 Moreover, some studies examined the relationship between trace elements levels and the most common trace elementassociated diseases like anemia 24 and hypothyroidism.…”
