	Electrochemistry Encyclopedia --- Aluminum production
		Alumina (aluminum oxide) powder, fed to the electrolytic process, is produced by the Bayer process from bauxite ore. Bauxites contain 40-60% alumina, combined with silica (silicon oxide), iron oxide, and titanium dioxide.
		Aluminum reduction cells today are of two types: those with prebaked anodes and those with baked-in-place anodes (Soderberg).
		Alumina was carbothermally chlorinated to aluminum chloride which was electrolytically decomposed to aluminum and chlorine in bipolar cells with graphite electrodes.

	Aluminum, Fluoride, and Hormones
		Thus when there is fluoride and aluminum around, it is this species that can combine with the GDP in the G-protein, AND without any involvement of the hormone it can deliver the message (ie activate the cellular change) that the hormone would have delivered.
		Fluoride anions in the presence of aluminium thus mimicked the action of Ca2+-mobilizing hormones glucagon and vasopressin in hepatocytes.
		As a model for G protein-induced cardiopulmonary dysfunction, fluoride infusion (0.9 mol/l in 0.9% NaCl at 15 µl.kg-1.min-1 for 3 h i.v.) in the presence and absence of AlCl3 (0.6 µg.kg-1.min-1) into pigs anaesthetised with pentobarbital sodium was used (Dodam and Olson, 1995).

	Skeletal changes with toxicity from fluoride and aluminum
		Aluminum affected the mineralization of osteo-cytoplasm and inhibited the calcification of osteoid.
		For example, in the radiographs of the pelvis of patients with toxicity from fluoride and aluminum, bone density was increased, trabeculae showed gross haziness, and the malformation of osteomalacia was also present.
		Study of the radiographic features of skeletal transformation in toxicity from fluoride and aluminum may be helpful in interpreting radiographs showing the increased density of osteosclerosis, varieties of osteomalacia, and osteosclerotic osteomalacia.

		The kidney is critical to the elimination of both aluminum and fluoride, and these changes may have impaired the elimination of these elements, detoxification in general or homeostasis of other ions such as calcium.
		Further studies of aluminum fluoride and sodium fluoride are needed to establish the relative importance of a variety of potential mechanisms contributing to the observed effects as well as to determine the potential involvement of these agents in neurogenerative diseases.

	Aluminum, fluoride, and Alzheimer's disease: a review Nutrition Research Newsletter - Find Articles
		Several lines of evidence indicate that aluminum and fluoride are mutually antagonistic, because they compete for absorption from the gastrointestinal tract.
		In studies in rats and rabbits, less aluminum accumulated in the brain when test animals were given fluoride along with aluminum than when they were given aluminum alone.
		A single epidemiological study conducted in South Carolina suggested that high fluoride intakes may be associated with lower risks of Alzheimer's disease; however, the study had important methodological limitations.

	Potassium Aluminum Fluoride
		Potassium Aluminum Fluoride (KAlFx) — KBAlloys' potassium aluminum fluoride is a commercial grade fused solid, inorganic salt comprising of a mixture of potassium hexa- and tetrafluoroaluminates (K3AlF6 and KAlF4).
		Fluxes - Potassium Aluminum Fluoride is often the primary constituent in salt fluxes for metal cleaning, either as a stand-alone addition or combined with other salts such as NaCl and KCl.
		The function of the salt flux is to separate metals from oxide and dross and to prevent incendiary burning of the aluminum, thereby maximizing yields.

	Fluoride
		It is characterized by diffuse opacities and under-mineralized enamel.
		Fluorides are cumulative and build-up steadily with ingestion of fluoride from all sources, which include not just water but the air we breathe and the food we eat.
		The use of fluoride toothpaste in dental hygiene and the coating of teeth are further sources of substantial levels of fluoride intake.

		"Fluoride has diverse actions on a variety of cellular and physiological functions, including the inhibition of a variety of enzymes, a corrosive action in acid mediums, hypocalcemia, hyperkalemia, and possibly cerebral impairment."
		In the "Effect of Fluoride on the Physiology of the Pineal Gland", 1994, the author J. Luke suggests that fluoride also effects the gland in the brain that produces melatonin, which has been established as critical to those people suffering from sleep disorders.

		Fluorides are highly toxic compounds that are both expensive and dangerous to dispose of yet when added to a municipal water supply it somehow becomes a dental panacea, a carie cure-all.
		Fluoridated areas have higher per capita dentist ratios and also higher spending on dental care because fluoridated regions are generally urban.

	FLUORIDE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Fluoride is a persistent and non-degradable poison that accumulates in soil, plants, wildlife, and humans.
		To call sodium fluoride an "inert" is Orwellian and defies one of the NOS's stated principles: producers shall not use "natural poisons such as arsenic or lead salts that have long-term effects and persist in the environment." Fluoride is clearly in this category.
		Sodium fluoride is used as a rodenticide and insecticide (mainly for roaches and ants), as a disinfectant for fermentation apparatus in breweries and distilleries, in wood preservation, and in rimmed steel manufacture (ATSDR, p 138).
