“…Some trace elements form part of enzymes [e.g., Se in glutathionperoxidase (1) and copper in tyrosinase, ascorbic acid oxidase, cytochrome oxidase, uricase, and superoxid dismutase]. Others are involved in the synthesis of hormones [e.g., Se in the formation of trijodothyronin (1,2)]. Some trace elements are known to be associated with certain diseases if they are present in the body in abnormally low concentrations: Hemolytic anemias can develop in Zn deficiency and some form of coronary heart diseases are associated with Cu and Zn deficiency (3).…”

The goal of this article was to establish reference ranges of the concentration of trace elements in human serum and to compare these results with those reported by other authors. We describe the sample preparation and measurement conditions that allow the rapid, precise, and accurate determination of Al, As, B, Be, Cd, Co, Cu, Fe, Li, Mn, Mo, Ni, Rb, Se, Sr, and Zn in human serum samples (n = 110) by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Accuracy and precision were determined by analyzing three reconstituted reference serum samples by comparison with other methods and by the standard addition procedure.The advantages of the ICP-MS method include short time of analysis of the elements mentioned, low detection limit, high precision, and high accuracy. Disadventages include a high risk of contamination due to the presence of some of the elements of interest in the environment, the relatively delicate sample handling, and the high cost of the equipment.

“…Likewise in macro elements, the micro elements such as Cu, Mn, Zn and Se are involved in several metabolic or immunological processes in organisms by activating or inhibiting enzymatic reactions, by competing for binding sites with other elements and metalloproteins, by affecting the permeability of cell membranes or by several other mechanisms (29,30) in order to maintain the homeostasis (31,32). So, they have to be taken from several resources as fish in daily diet.…”

As the world's fastest ongrowing sector in food production, aquaculture has remarkable priority and needs technological improvements and new candidate fish species to overcome some limitation factors. Considering these issues, this study based on determining the flesh quality in terms of nutrient and mineral element composition of two potential fish species, common dentex (Dentex dentex) and greater amberjack (Seriola dumerili), in recirculation aquaculture system (RAS). On the nutrient basis, the dry matter content of 28.82% and fillet yield with a value of 53.28% of Dentex dentex were found significantly higher than (P<0.05) Seriola dumerili. Crude protein and lipid values demonstrated slight but insignificant differences between the species. Among the macro elements of K and Mg and micro elements of Cr, Mn and Ni were noticeably higher in common dentex than greater amberjack, but Zn level was present almost double amount in amberjack (P<0.05).

“…Maximal reduction of NFκB activity was seen when copper levels exceeded 10 μM, a concentration that exceeds physiological copper concentrations. 17 The impact of elevated copper levels on canonical NFκB-dependent gene induction patterns was then examined. mRNA was isolated from HEK293 cells, pretreated with clioquinol and increasing concentrations of CuSO 4 that were subsequently stimulated with TNF.…”
