Study of effective removal of nickel and cobalt from aqueous solutions by FeO@mSiO2 nanocomposite by Wahran M. Saod, Nisreen Jassam Alaallah, Ekhlas A. Abdulkareem, Nahla Naji Hilal, Mohammad I. AlBiajawi

“…Although it has been demonstrated that nanomaterials may effectively remove both different type from chemical pollutants—including organic and inorganic—from contaminated source, their removal efficacy may be diminished by their propensity to flocculate. Iron oxide loaded with mesoporous silica (FeO@mSiO2) was effectively synthesized and characterized through the use of FTIR, SEM, TGA, XRD, and UV–visible spectral analysis. …”

Ferroptosis in thyroid cancer: mechanisms, current status, and treatment by Wenzhi Tian, Wenzhi Tian, Xi Su, Chenchen Hu, Dong Chen, Peng Li

“…Comprehensive investigations into the pathogenesis of TC have identified a significant association with ferroptosis, a newly characterized form of cell death mediated by iron ions. Distinct from apoptosis, necrosis, and autophagy, ferroptosis is characterized by the accumulation of lipid peroxides and reactive oxygen species, culminating in cellular damage and death.Recent research has elucidated a connection between ferroptosis and the initiation, progression, and treatment of thyroid cancer. …”
