This review article sought to integrate findings from the rhizosphere with Fe and Zn accumulation in grain, and to discuss the promoters as well as the anti-nutritional factors affecting Fe andZn bioavailability in humans while restricting the content of toxic metals.
Impact of Zinc, Glutathione, and Polyphenols as Antioxidants in the Immune Response against SARS-CoV-2
- MedicineProcesses
- 2021
The role of zinc, glutathione, and polyphenols, as key antioxidants of possible medicinal or nutritional significance, are looked at, and their role in the antiviral immune response induced by SARS-Cov-2 is examined.
The Status of Serum Zinc, Magnesium and Calcium in Type 2 Diabetic Patients and Their Correlation with Renal Function.
- Medicine

Effect of Molecular Weight of Tilapia (Oreochromis Niloticus) Skin Collagen Peptide Fractions on Zinc-Chelating Capacity and Bioaccessibility of the Zinc-Peptide Fractions Complexes in Vitro Digestion
- ChemistryApplied Sciences
- 2020
Low molecular weight peptidefraction with strong zinc chelation ability can be used as delivery agents to improve zinc bioaccessibility and is suggested to be a viable option for in vitro digestion of tilapia skin collagen peptide fractions.
Zinc-Biofortified Wheat Intake and Zinc Status Biomarkers in Men: Randomized Controlled Trial.
- MedicineThe Journal of nutrition
- 2021
In healthy adult men, a 1.6-mg/d increase in dietary zinc from biofortified wheat modified FADS2 and FADS1 activities without changing DNA damage, plasma zinc, or GSH concentrations, demonstrating that FADS activities are more sensitive to small changes in zinc consumed with a meal.
