Metals in medicine information


Metals in medicine are used in organic systems for diagnostic and treatment purposes.[1] Inorganic elements are also essential for organic life as cofactors in enzymes called metalloproteins. When metals are under or over-abundant in the body, equilibrium must be returned to its natural state via interventional and natural methods.
