Quantitative comparison of different iron forms in the temporal cortex of Alzheimer patients and control subjects

Abstract We present a quantitative study of different molecular iron forms found in the temporal cortex of Alzheimer (AD) patients. Applying the methodology we developed in our previous work, we quantify the concentrations of non-heme Fe(III) by Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR), magnetite/maghe...
