Effect of Micro-Nanobubbles on Arsenic Removal by Trichoderma atroviride for Bioscorodite Generation.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of Fungi. Aug2023, Vol. 9 Issue 8, p857. 18p.
Abstract: The global environmental issue of arsenic (As) contamination in drinking water is a significant problem that requires attention. Therefore, the aim of this research was to address the application of a sustainable methodology for arsenic removal through...
Removal of Nitrate from Aqueous Solution by Bio-Calcium from Iraqi Eggshells.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of Ecological Engineering. 2023, Vol. 24 Issue 9, p10-18. 9p.
Abstract: Nitrate contamination of drinking water is one of Iraq's environmental problems in some of its most vital lands as a result of sewage sedimentation, agricultural fertilizer waste, and remnants of war. Iraqi egg waste (bio-calcium Iraqi eggshells) was t...
Occurrence of aflatoxins in water and decontamination strategies: A review.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Water research [Water Res] 2023 Apr 01; Vol. 232, pp. 119703. Date of Electronic Publication: 2023 Feb 04.
Abstract: Aflatoxins are highly carcinogenic metabolites produced by some Aspergillus species and are the most prevalent mycotoxins. Although aflatoxins are commonly synthesized during fungal colonization in preharvest maize, cereals, and nuts, they can be trans...
The Effect of Nitrate-Contaminated Drinking Water and Vegetables on the Prevalence of Acquired Methemoglobinemia in Beit Lahia City in Palestine.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Water (20734441). Jun2023, Vol. 15 Issue 11, p1989. 11p.
Abstract: Nitrates significantly impact human health and the environment. Drinking water and vegetables are considered the main sources of exposure to exogenous nitrates for humans. This study aimed to estimate and assess the health hazards from nitrate contamin...
Determination of potential volatile compounds in polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles and their short- and long-term migration into food simulants and soft drink.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Food chemistry [Food Chem] 2022 Dec 15; Vol. 397, pp. 133758. Date of Electronic Publication: 2022 Aug 03.
Abstract: Head space (HS)-GC-MS was used to analyze possible migration of volatile compounds from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles for soft drinks, and a total of six compounds were identified. Next, a rapid, simple, and accurate simultaneous method was ...
Aldosterone Biosynthesis Is Potently Stimulated by Perfluoroalkyl Acids: A Link between Common Environmental Pollutants and Arterial Hypertension.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
