Ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) is a complex of iron(III) with the chelating agent nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA). It is a synthetic compound that has been studied for its potential applications in various fields, including medicine, agriculture, and environmental science. Fe-NTA is a highly soluble and stable complex, making it an effective iron supplement. It is also used as a chelating agent to remove heavy metals from soil and water. However, Fe-NTA has also been linked to health concerns, particularly in relation to its potential to promote oxidative stress and cancer. Its environmental impact is also a concern, as it can contribute to the accumulation of iron in aquatic ecosystems. Fe-NTA is synthesized by reacting iron(III) salts with NTA in aqueous solution. The complex can be isolated as a solid or used directly in solution. Research on Fe-NTA focuses on understanding its chemical properties, biological effects, and potential applications. This includes investigating its ability to enhance iron bioavailability, its impact on human health, and its role in environmental remediation. Fe-NTA is an important subject of research due to its potential benefits and risks. Studies aim to optimize its use in various applications while mitigating its potential negative effects. '

| Neuroblastoma A common neoplasm of early childhood arising from neural crest cells in the sympathetic nervous system, and characterized by diverse clinical behavior, ranging from spontaneous remission to rapid metastatic progression and death. This tumor is the most common intraabdominal malignancy of childhood, but it may also arise from thorax, neck, or rarely occur in the central nervous system. Histologic features include uniform round cells with hyperchromatic nuclei arranged in nests and separated by fibrovascular septa. Neuroblastomas may be associated with the opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome.
