1. Abstract
1.1. Background: Some chemical agents have been studied for chelation therapy against heavy metal poisoning/ contamination. But none of them were found to be satisfactory for cobalt decorporation. Therefore, present mitigation study was performed to find out cobalt decorporation ability of ‘Pentetate Calcium Trisodium’ or Calcium-Diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (Ca-DTPA) against intracellular cobalt contamination.
