Some reports have indicated that fluoride can ameliorate aluminum toxicity to trout by the formation of fluoride-aluminum complexes, but other studies suggest that fluoride can act synergistically to enhance aluminum toxicity. 5, record 14, English, - aluminium%20fluoride%20complex

Similar to curing osteoporosis, fluoride has been proposed as a preventive measure(sic) against Alzheimer's Disease(AD) based on the presumption that by direct competition in the gut, fluoride would decrease aluminum uptake(Kraus and Forbes, 1992). Rather, such antagonism(Li, et al. 1990) is due to the formation of aluminum-fluoride complex(Li, et al. 1991). 6, record 14, English, - aluminium%20fluoride%20complex

Biological phosphorus removal is dependant mainly on manipulation of the ability of Acinetobacter sp.. to release phosphate in anaerobic conditions and absorb it in aerobic ones. ... The ortho-phosphate is metabolised by the cell and excess quantities are stored inside the cell as polyphosphate. This is called LUXURY UPTAKE of phosphate. 2, record 17, English, - luxury%20uptake
Record number: 17, Textual support number: 2 CONT
Biological phosphorus removal is based on the phenomenon called "luxury uptake. "This effect is observed when certain microorganisms, primarily acinetobacter, are subject to anaerobic conditions, followed by aerobic conditions. Under anaerobic conditions, acinetobacter experience a stress due to a lack of oxygen. They release phosphorus and take on soluble COD. In the subsequent aerobic zone, the same microbes take on additional phosphorus to replenish the energy resources. In what may be interpreted as a "preventive measure, "the microbes take on 2. 5 times more phosphorus than required for biosynthesis. The microbes effectively prepare themselves for future stress situations(i. e., low O2 concentrations) by storing more-than-normal amounts of phosphorus in the form of polyphosphates as an energy source. 3, record 17, English, - luxury%20uptake
