Manganese (Mn) is an essential trace metal in all forms of life. In mammalians it is required for normal amino acid, lipid, protein and carbohydrate metabolism. Mn-dependent enzymes include oxidoreductases, transferases, hydrolases, lyases, isomerases and ligases, to
Read MoreThe origin of the name manganese is complex. In ancient times, two black minerals were identified from the regions of the Magnetes (either Magnesia, located within modern Greece, or Magnesia ad Sipylum, located within modern Turkey). They were both called magnes from their place of origin, but were considered to differ in sex. The male magnes attracted iron, and was the iron
