Study Finds Low

Whether lithium is helpful for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease has been a controversy. Due to the different approaches, conditions, formulations, timing, and dosages of treatment, results are difficult to compare. In addition, continued supply with a high dosage of lithium renders many serious effects on the brain making this approach unsuitable for long term treatments especially.

A recent study by a team tungsten carbide bars of researchers led by Dr. Claudio Cuello of McGill University in Canada found that when the element is used to assist drugs through the blood-brain barrier, lithium in doses to 1/400 of the current mental therapy drug can alleviate the physical symptoms of Alzheimer's pathology such as amyloid plaques and of recovering lost cognitive abilities.

Dr. Cuello pointed out that past research has found that the use of low-dose lithium in the formulation of the drug has quite positive results for experimental mice with similar early Alzheimer's disease. Therefore, the team hopes to further investigate whether the experimental mice with advanced Alzheimer's disease can help halt the disease.

In experimental mice with similar Alzheimer's disease, the team found that low-dose Tungsten Carbide Rods Single Hole lithium-based agents could still slow the disease and improve its cognitive status in the later stages of the disease. Dr. Cuello said, "From a practical point of view our findings show that micro-doses of the element in formulations such as the one we used, which facilitates passage to the brain through the brain-blood barrier while minimizing levels of the element in the blood, sparing individuals from adverse effects, should find immediate therapeutic applications."

Dr. Cuello further states two directions worthy of the development of the research. The first is to study whether lithium can be combined with other drugs to give better efficacy. The second is to use this new pharmaceutical formula to conduct clinical trials on populations with preclinical symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. If the pharmaceutical tungsten carbide plates formula can be used on the human body and has a better curative effect, it will be great progress in the development of Alzheimer's drugs.

Tungsten Concentrate Prices Are Expected to Stabilize in China

Analysis of latest tungsten market from Chinatungsten Online

Tungsten concentrate and ammonium paratungstate tungsten carbide bars (APT) prices in China are expected to stabilize because market participants believe there is little room for price falls after witnessing steady declines in recent weeks.

Miners are reluctant to sell at current prices because they are already below their costs of production and participants therefore expect the concentrates price to remain within the current range in a slow market.

Large-scale tungsten companies usually prioritize the solid tungsten carbide rods supply of raw materials (concentrates) to their own subsidiary refineries, leaving limited volumes available for the wider market. Meanwhile, small- and medium-sized miners are choosing to sit on the sidelines and wait for the price to improve before supplying the market.

In terms of demand, participants said they expect the market would be in a lull for the rest of April after several APT refineries, which are maintaining operations to fulfill long-term contracts, stocked up on raw materials in the early stages of the month.

China Tungsten Market Kept Firm with High Prices but Rare Deals

Analysis of latest tungsten market from Chinatungsten Online

The tungsten market in China kept firm in the week ended on Friday October 12, 2019 partly affected by the rise in new guide prices from institutions and listed tungsten carbide bars tungsten companies. Sellers raised psychological prices of raw materials and were reluctant to sell products as they had certain profit margins. But considering rare deals concluded at high prices, insiders have mixed feeling about the outlook. 

The advantage lies in the mining control policies, environmental protection policies, the decline of resource grades and the increase in the value of tungsten resources after the use of customized tungsten carbide high-tech new materials, which will significantly contribute to the cost, supply and confidence of the industry. The disadvantage lies in the uncertainty of trade friction between China and the United States, the global manufacturing economic downturn, and the decline of downstream related consumer industries, which will aggravate the uncertainty of market trade and the reduction in industrial demand.

China Molybdenum Prices

China molybdenum tungsten carbide plates prices maintain stability at the beginning of the week considering the limited consumption in the terminal side and sight supply in the raw material markets. Now the market remains quiet as downstream tungsten carbide burrs blank buyers have finished their replenishment previously. Moreover, with the approaching of Chinese Spring Festival, most market participants will be off duty. Therefore, the market is expected to stabilize before the holiday.

Tungsten Price in China Declined on Reduced Demand

Analysis of latest tungsten market from Chinatungsten Online

The tungsten price in China was in the downward trend in the tungsten carbide burrs blank week ended on Friday March 27, 2020 because the continued spread of coronavirus worldwide has led to reduced demand from other countries. Domestic market participants remained cautious sentiment and also held negative view on the market in April. 

In the tungsten concentrate market, the supply was increased due unground solid tungsten carbide rods to effective control of coronavirus in China, but the terminal side continued to be weak, resulting in rare transactions concluded. The raw material prices declined and mining enterprises had to cut output to maintain current prices.

Many of the Chinese tungsten concentrate and ammonium paratungstate (APT) producers were either unable to operate or were run at very low operational levels in February and most of March due to coronavirus. China produces some 80% of the global demand for tungsten-based raw materials.
