Overview

Nickel is a chemical element with the symbol Ni and atomic number 28, a silvery-white, lustrous transition metal known for its hardness, ductility, resistance to corrosion, and high melting point. These properties make nickel valuable across many industries, including the production of stainless steel and other alloys, electroplating, batteries, electronics, aerospace components, and chemical catalysis. Beyond its industrial uses, nickel is also significant in environmental and biological contexts, where it can act as a contaminant, a trace element, and, at elevated levels, a toxic agent affecting living organisms. Within the scope of developments in chemistry, research relevant to nickel spans its detection, its environmental behavior, and its biological effects. Work in this field has developed an optical chemical sensor for determining nickel in water and hydrogen peroxide samples, addressing the need for sensitive analytical methods. Other research has examined how the compound triacontanol can alleviate nickel toxicity in maize seedlings by controlling uptake and strengthening antioxidant defenses, and has investigated nickel-containing materials such as titanium nickelide mesh in the context of bone tissue repair, as well as the determination of trace metals including nickel in biological tissue. This page gathers peer-reviewed, open-access research relevant to the chemistry, detection, and effects of nickel.
