Cadmium and lead accumulate in the deciduous teeth of children with celiac disease or food allergies
28 Cadmium and lead accumulate in the deciduous teeth of children with celiac disease or food allergies Abstract The objective of this study was to examine the relative levels of cadmium, lead and calcium in deciduous teeth of children with celiac disease or food allergies from an industrial area of Poland compared to healthy controls. Using flame atomic absorption spectrometry it was found tha...
متن کاملArsenic, Cadmium, Lead, and Mercury in Sweat: A Systematic Review
Arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury exposures are ubiquitous. These toxic elements have no physiological benefits, engendering interest in minimizing body burden. The physiological process of sweating has long been regarded as "cleansing" and of low risk. Reports of toxicant levels in sweat were sought in Medline, Embase, Toxline, Biosis, and AMED as well as reference lists and grey literature,...
متن کاملCompetitive biosorption of lead, cadmium, copper, and arsenic ions using algae
The present study aims to evaluate the competitive biosorption of lead, cadmium, copper, and arsenic ions by using native algae. A series of experiments were carried out in a batch reactor to obtain equilibrium data for adsorption of single, binary, ternary, and quaternary metal solutions. The biosorption of these metals is based on ion exchange mechanism accompanied by the release of light met...
متن کاملNephrotoxicity of cadmium & lead.
Cadmium and lead are divalent cations with a propensity to settle in the proximal tubule of the nephron, leading to nephrotoxicity. The pathophysiological results, however, tend to diverge. Cadmium in sufficient cumulative dosage leads to the production of the Fanconi syndrome, a generalized proximal tubular reabsorptive defect thought to be related to inhibition of both ATP production and Na-K...
متن کاملDetermination of heavy metals of Lead, Copper, Cadmium and Mercury concentration in the soft tissues of brown algae (Sargassum ilicifolium) and spiny lobster (Panulirus homarus)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the accumulation of Lead, Copper, Cadmium and Mercury in the soft tissues of brown algae (Sargassum ilicifolium) and muscle of spiny lobster (Panulirus homarus) in a five different stations along the northern coasts of the Oman Sea during pre and post monsoon seasons. A number of 50 specimens of each sample were collected from stations of Jask port, Darak ...
