  • Manganese Toxicity May Appear Slowly Over Months and Years
    MANGANESE 11 2. RELEVANCE TO PUBLIC HEALTH 2.1 BACKGROUND AND ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURES TO MANGANESE IN THE UNITED STATES Manganese is a naturally occurring element and an essential nutrient. Comprising approximately 0.1% of the earth’s crust, it is the twelfth most abundant element and the fifth most abundant metal. Manganese does not exist in nature as an elemental form, but is found mainly as oxides, carbonates, and silicates in over 100 minerals with pyrolusite (manganese dioxide) as the most common naturally-occurring form. As an essential nutrient, several enzyme systems have been reported to interact with or depend on manganese for their catalytic or regulatory function. As such, manganese is required for the formation of healthy cartilage and bone and the urea cycle; it aids in the maintenance of mitochondria and the production of glucose. It also plays a key role in wound-healing. Manganese exists in both inorganic and organic forms. An essential ingredient in steel, inorganic manganese is also used in the production of dry-cell batteries, glass and fireworks, in chemical manufacturing, in the leather and textile industries and as a fertilizer. The inorganic pigment known as manganese violet (manganese ammonium pyrophosphate complex) has nearly ubiquitous use in cosmetics and is also found in certain paints. Organic forms of manganese are used as fungicides, fuel-oil additives, smoke inhibitors, an anti-knock additive in gasoline, and a medical imaging agent. The average manganese soil concentrations in the United States is 40–900 mg/kg; the primary natural source of the manganese is the erosion of crustal rock.

  • Stable Isotopes of Cobalt Properties of Cobalt
    Stable Isotopes of Cobalt Isotope Z(p) N(n) Atomic Mass Natural Abundance Nuclear Spin Co-59 27 32 58.93320 100.00% 7/2- Cobalt was discovered in 1735 by Georg Brandt. Its name derives from the German word kobald, meaning "goblin" or "evil spirit." Minerals containing cobalt were used by the early civilizations of Egypt and Mesopotamia for coloring glass deep blue. Cobalt oxide is used today to add a pink or blue color to glass. It is also an important trace element in soils and necessary for animal nutrition. The most important modern use of cobalt is in the manufacture of various wear-resistant and superalloys. Its alloys have shown high resistance to corrosion and oxidation at high temperatures. Radioactive Cobalt-60 is used in radiography and in the sterilization of food. A silvery-white, shining, hard, ductile, somewhat malleable metal, cobalt is also ferromagnetic, with permeability two-thirds that of iron. It has exceptional magnetic properties in alloys. It is attached by dilute hydrochloric and sulfuric acids. It corrodes readily in air, and it has unusual coordinating properties, especially the trivalent ion. It is noncombustible except in powder form. Cobalt occurs in two allotropic modifications over a wide range of temperatures: the crystalline close-packed- hexagonal form is known as the alpha form, which turns into the beta (or gamma) form above 417 ºC. In finely powdered form, cobalt ignites spontaneously in air. Reactions with acetylene and bromine pentafluoride proceed to incandescence and can become violent. The metal is moderately toxic by ingestion. Inhalation of dusts can damage lungs.

  • 3. Micronutrients There Are 7 Essential Plant Nutrient Elements Defined As
    3. Micronutrients There are 7 essential plant nutrient elements defined as micronutrients [boron (B), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), molybdenum (Mo), chlorine (Cl)]. They constitute in total less than 1% of the dry weight of most plants. The following discussion focuses primarily on the soil characteristics for the micronutrients. a. Boron (B) Boron is included in the Standard Soil Test. The level of soil boron is “insufficient” or “low” when extractable boron is less than 0.1 pound per acre. Soil boron is found in both organic and inorganic forms that are made available to plants as either or both soil organic matter is decomposed and/or boron-containing minerals dissolve. There may be between 20 to 200 pounds boron in the surface layer of South Carolina soils, but only a small portion is available to 3- plants. Boron, as the borate (BO3 ) anion, is mobile in the soil and can be easily leached from the surface soil. Calcium, potassium, and nitrogen concentrations in both the soil and plant can affect boron availability and plant function, the calcium:boron (Ca:B) ratio relationship being the most important. Therefore, soils high in calcium will require more boron than soils low in calcium. The chance for boron toxicity is greater on low calcium-content soils. The need to include boron in the fertilizer recommendation is determined by: • crop requirement • soil boron test level For any given crop when boron is recommended, a high rate of boron may be required on: • clay-type soils • soils that are high in water pH and/or calcium content • high organic matter content soils • soils where boron is broadcast versus boron being either banded or foliar applied Boron is routinely included in the fertilizer recommendation for the crops cotton, peanut, alfalfa, apple, root crops, cabbage, broccoli, and cauliflower, and when reseeding clover or where clover seeds are to be harvested.
