Abstract:
Cobalt is a crucial trace element for the human body. It serves as an essential
component of vitamin B12 and plays a pivotal role in the synthesis of amino acids and
select proteins within nerve cells, as well as in the synthesis of neurotransmitters vital
for the proper functioning of the body. Both excess and deficiency of cobalt can have
detrimental effects on the human body. Notwithstanding the paramount significance
of cobalt as a trace element, comprehensive studies are necessary to evaluate its role
in physiological processes.
