The essentiality of silicon in biology might be explained in the terms of its chemistry with aluminium. In a previous study we demonstrated the elimination of acute aluminium toxicity in fish by silicon. We suggested that the reaction of silicic acid with aluminium to form hydroxyaluminosilicates re

We have designed a laboratory bioassay to expose fish to kinetically determined differences in aluminium hydroxide solution chemistry. We have used this system to demonstrate the hitherto unexpected result of an acute aluminium toxicity in the fish at a pH of 6.5. Supporting experiments have demonst
## Abstract The study comprises 7,410 male employees from the Norwegian primary aluminium industry, and presents overall mortality as well as cancer incidence. During the period 1953β79, 428 new cases of cancer were observed compared to the expected number of 412.2. The only statistically significa
