Competition between Cd (II) and other divalent transition metal ions during complex formation with amino acids, peptides, and chelating agents
Cadmium is not an essential element for humans, but instead its compounds are known for
their toxicity. In addition to the risks for workers in industries that use cadmium, this metal can …
