Bioavailability and health risk of toxic heavy metals (As, Hg, Pb and Cd) in urban soils: A Monte Carlo simulation approach.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Environmental research [Environ Res] 2022 Nov; Vol. 214 (Pt 1), pp. 113772. Date of Electronic Publication: 2022 Jul 02.
Abstract: Toxic heavy metals pollution in urban soil has become a major global issue due to its adverse effects on the environment and human health. In this paper, 26 soil samples were analyzed to assess the speciation, bioavailability and human health risk of A...
Bioaccumulation of mining derived metals in blood, liver, muscle and otoliths of two Arctic predatory fish species (Gadus ogac and Myoxocephalus scorpius).
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Environmental research [Environ Res] 2020 Apr; Vol. 183, pp. 109194. Date of Electronic Publication: 2020 Jan 28.
Abstract: Mining activities can cause adverse and long-lasting environmental impacts and detailed monitoring is therefore essential to assess the pollution status of mining impacted areas. Here we evaluated the efficacy of two predatory fish species (Gadus ogac ...
Combined effects of carbonaceous-immobilizing agents and subsequent sulphur application on maize phytoextraction efficiency in highly contaminated soil.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Environmental science and pollution research international [Environ Sci Pollut Res Int] 2019 Jul; Vol. 26 (20), pp. 20866-20878. Date of Electronic Publication: 2019 May 20.
Abstract: The establishment of phytoextraction crops on highly contaminated soils can be limited by metal toxicity. A recent proposal has suggested establishing support crops during the critical initial phase by metal immobilization through soil amendments follo...
Sources, bioaccumulation, health risks and remediation of potentially toxic metal(loid)s (As, Cd, Cr, Pb and Hg): an epitomised review.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Environmental monitoring and assessment [Environ Monit Assess] 2020 Jan 11; Vol. 192 (2), pp. 108. Date of Electronic Publication: 2020 Jan 11.
Abstract: The release of potentially toxic metal(loid)s (PTMs) such as As, Cd, Cr, Pb and Hg has become a serious threat to the environment. The anthropogenic contribution of these PTMs, especially Hg, is increasing continuously, and coal combustion in thermal p...
Accumulation and tolerance to cadmium heavy metal ions and induction of 14-3-3 gene expression in response to cadmium exposure in Coprinus atramentarius.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Microbiological research [Microbiol Res] 2017 Mar; Vol. 196, pp. 1-6. Date of Electronic Publication: 2016 Dec 01.
Abstract: Cadmium (Cd), one of the most toxic heavy-metal pollutants, has a strong and irreversible tendency to accumulate. Bioremediation is a promising technology to remedy and control heavy metal pollutants because of its low cost and ability to recycle heavy...
The fate of selected heavy metals and arsenic in a constructed wetland.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of environmental science and health. Part A, Toxic/hazardous substances & environmental engineering [J Environ Sci Health A Tox Hazard Subst Environ Eng] 2019; Vol. 54 (1), pp. 56-64. Date of Electronic Publication: 2019 Jan 21.
Abstract: The fate of Cd, Pb, Cu, Zn, Ni, Cr, and As in a horizontal subsurface flow-constructed wetland was studied. The concentrations of the risk elements in treated municipal wastewater, wetland sediments, and Phragmites australis biomass were determined. Mo...
Oral bioaccessibility of toxic metals in contaminated oysters and relationships with metal internal sequestration.
