| In contrast, the prolonged increase in cytosolic calcium was greatly enhanced in the presence of gadolinium or lanthanum chloride. |
| It is extracted from its ores by heating lanthanum metal with ytterbium oxide. |
| Its chemical properties are similar to those of lanthanum, the element above it in the periodic table. |
| The relative difficulty in identifying certain elements has given birth to such names as lanthanum, krypton and dysprosium. |
| Elements in this group are also known as the lanthanides after the first element in that group, lanthanum. |
| We see cerium, lanthanum, neodymium, and so forth, which indicate we are dealing with a rare-earth mineral, and that can mean big problems. |
