Currently, the CDC will not classify an individual as having a dangerous blood lead level unless he has at least 10 micromoles of lead per deciliter -- more than three times the level that causes decreased brain function in children. ❋ Jacqueline Caster (2012)
A homocysteine level of less than 14 micromoles per liter of blood is considered normal, but the Framingham researchers found that any reading above 11.4 brought an increase in risk. ❋ Unknown (2008)
An ideal level is 6 to 10 micromoles per deciliter of blood for premenopausal women and 8 to 12 micromoles for men and postmenopausal women. ❋ Unknown (2008)
I pledge allegiance to the mole, and to the science from which it comes, one SI unit, extremely divisible, with micromoles and millimoles for all. ❋ Unknown (2003)
(MS), the researchers measured all the known and some unknown metabolites of green tea following ingestion of a ready-to-drink green tea containing about 400 micromoles of flavan-3-ols by 20 healthy humans. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Researchers from the University of Hawaii have shown that, at the tiny concentration of just 100 micromoles per liter, a phytonutrient found in cruciferous vegetables, indole-3-carbinol, lowers liver cells 'secretion of the cholesterol transporter, apolipoproteinB-100 by 56%! ❋ Unknown (2010)
B12 and folic acid or a placebo to 276 older adults with at least 13 micromoles of homocysteine per liter of blood. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Swedish male 18 to 20 - year olds were found to consume an average of double the WHO recommended of 80 to 110 micromoles of sodium per day, equivalent to 5 to 6 grams of salt per day, according to findings published in Public Health Nutrition. ❋ Unknown (2010)
At the end of the test period, the researchers noted an increase in blood levels of lutein in both lutein groups, from 0.36 to 0.61 micromoles per litre, and from 0.33 to 0.73 micromoles per litre in the low - and high-dose groups, respectively. ❋ Unknown (2009)
The highest average selenium levels of between 1.3 and 2.8 micromoles per litre were associated with a 57 per cent reduction in the incidence of BCC, and a 64 per cent reduction in the incidence of SCC, compared to the lowest average selenium levels of between 0.4 and 1.0 micromoles per litre. ❋ Unknown (2009)
EGCG concentrations of 2 to 5 micromoles per litre - typical of blood levels in people who take supplements - also totally blocked Velcade's ability to kill multiple myeloma cells in lab dishes. ❋ Unknown (2009)
Researchers from the University of Hawaii have shown that, at the tiny concentration of just 100 micromoles per liter, indole-3-carbinol (a metabolite of the glucosinolate phytonutrients found in collard greens and other ruciferous vegetables) lowers liver cells 'secretion of the cholesterol transporter, apolipoproteinB-100 by 56\%! ❋ Unknown (2009)
