Functions of Fluoride in the Oral Cavity
Fluoride is an inorganic anion, designated F-, as a halogen element with atomic number 9. It is the simplest anion, similar to hydroxyl ions in... -
Fluoride transport in Arabidopsis thaliana plants is impaired in Fluoride EXporter (FEX) mutants
Fluoride is an environmental toxin prevalent in water, soil, and air. A fluoride transporter called Fluoride EXporter (FEX) has been discovered...
