The Application of Curve Fitting on the Voltammograms of Various Isoforms of Metallothioneins–Metal Complexes
(MDPI, 2017-03-01)
The translation of metallothioneins (MTs) is one of the defense strategies by which organisms protect themselves from metal-induced toxicity. MTs belong to a family of proteins comprising MT-1, MT-2, MT-3, and MT-4 classes, ...
Antibacterial activity of composite of graphene oxide with silver nanoparticles
(Mendel University in Brno, 2017-12-31)
Looking for strategies against the development of antibiotic resistance is a major global
object of interest for the public health. This work deals with synthesis of antimicrobial composites
of graphene oxide (GO) with ...
Interaction of platinum-based cytostatics and platinum nanoparticles with metallothionein - potencial source of the antitumor drug resistence
(TANGER, 2018-03-31)
Platinum-based cytostatic represent a unique class of DNA-damaging antitumor agents and they are one the
most frequently used drugs in oncology. Problem is that some kind of cancer is resistant against this type of
cytostatics. ...
Effect of Ampicillin, Streptomycin, Penicillin and Tetracycline on Metal Resistant and Non-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus
(MDPI AG, POSTFACH, 2014-03-19)
There is an arising and concerning issue in the field of bacterial resistance, which is confirmed by the number of deaths associated with drug-resistant bacterial infections. The aim of this study was to compare the effects ...
Multi-instrumental Analysis of Tissues of Sunflower Plants Treated with Silver(I) Ions - Plants as Bioindicators of Environmental Pollution
(MDPI, 2008-01-24)
The aim of this work is to investigate sunflower plants response on stress induced by silver(I) ions. The sunflower plants were exposed to silver(I) ions (0, 0.1, 0.5, and 1 mM) for 96 h. Primarily we aimed our attention ...

(MDPI, 2006-11-06)
Miniaturization and integration of chemical devices into modules that are dimensionally comparable with electronic chips (Lab on Chip) is nowadays developing worldwide. The aim of our work was to suggest and optimize the ...
Study of Interactions between Metallothionein and Cisplatin by using Differential Pulse Voltammetry Brdicka's reaction and Quartz Crystal Microbalance
(MDPI, 2009-03-15)
Treatment strategies for tumour diseases are progressively focusing on personalization of medicine. However, this focus requires methods revealing the early general biological mechanisms, including the formation anti-cancer ...
Shapes of Differential Pulse Voltammograms and Level of Metallothionein at Different Animal Species
(MDPI, 2007-10-19)
Metallothioneins play a key role in maintaining homeostasis of essential metals and in protecting of cells against metal toxicity as well as oxidative damaging. Excepting humans, blood levels of metallothionein have not ...
