JOURNAL OF TRACE ELEMENTS IN MEDICINE AND BIOLOGY

该杂志为读者提供了一个全面的描述，理论和应用方面的微量元素在医学和生物学，并致力于推进科学知识的微量元素。微量元素在维持生理过程中起着至关重要的作用。近几十年来，人们对微量元素的功能和结合进行了大量的科学研究。《医学和生物学微量元素杂志》侧重于描述和传播有关微量元素在健康和疾病方面的作用及其对营养的重要性的科学成果。然而，微量元素生物学作用知识的进展取决于微量元素化学的进展。因此，《医学和生物学微量元素杂志》将只收录那些基于已证实的分析方法得出结果的论文。

The journal provides the reader with a thorough description of theoretical and applied aspects of trace elements in medicine and biology and is devoted to the advancement of scientific knowledge about trace elements. Trace elements play essential roles in the maintenance of physiological processes. During the last decades there has been a great deal of scientific investigation about the function and binding of trace elements. The Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology focuses on the description and dissemination of scientific results concerning the role of trace elements with respect to their mode of action in health and disease and nutritional importance. Progress in the knowledge of the biological role of trace elements depends, however, on advances in trace elements chemistry. Thus the Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology will include only those papers that base their results on proven analytical methods.
