This review examines recent applications of stable copper, zinc and sulfur isotopes to
medical cases and notably cancer. The distribution of the natural stable isotopes of a …

The widespread hypoxic conditions of the tumor microenvironment can impair the
metabolism of bioessential elements such as copper and sulfur, notably by changing their …

Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine cancer. There is no systematic screening for
such cancer, and the current challenge is to find potential biomarkers to facilitate an early …

The isotope effect describes mass-dependent variations of natural isotope abundances for a
particular element. In this pilot study, we measured the 65Cu/63Cu ratios in the serums of 20 …

High-precision isotopic analysis of essential mineral elements, mainly Ca, Cu, Fe and Zn,
provides relevant biomedical information. For this application, multi-collector ICP-mass …

Organic elements make up 99% of an organism but without the remaining inorganic
bioessential elements, termed the metallome, no life could be possible. The metallome is …

As a component of many minerals and an essential trace element in most aerobic
organisms, the transition metal element Cu is important for studying reduction-oxidation …

Carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios of bone collagen are an established method for
dietary reconstruction, but this method is limited by the protein preservation. Zinc (Zn) is …

Nowadays, the role of trace elements (TE) is of growing interest because dyshomeostasis of
selenium (Se), manganese (Mn), zinc (Zn), and copper (Cu) is supposed to be a risk factor …
