introduction     cadmium as one of the toxic heavy metal, because of harmful effects on health and the environment, has attracted a lot of attention. the main sources of cadmium emissions are the environment, the waste of electroplating, melting, alloyed manufacturing, pigments, plastics, batteries, extraction and refining processes. this metal easily accumulates in different machines of people...

soil reduces the hazardous effects of compounds on the components of ecosystem because of self –purification property and the ability for their fixation. playing such a role in soils under redox conditions is performed by pedogenic fe-mn concentrations. in order to investigate cobalt, copper and lead accumulation in iron and manganese concentrations, at first the concentrations were precisely s...

in this study, the effects of different concentrations of bulk and nano-sized ag on seed germination and seedling growth of canola were investigated in a randomized completely design with four replications. the experimental treatments included four concentrations of bulk agno 3 (10, 100, 500 and 1000 ppm), four concentrations of nanosized ag (10, 100, 500 and 1000 ppm), and the control without ...

abstract in respect to nano-technological studies and physiological and biochemical lesions of these materials on aquatic animals, in this study we examine the toxicity effects of nano-zinc oxide (zno nps) on hematological indices of common carp (cyprinus carpio). lc50 of nano zinc oxide was determined according to the mortality at 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours, respectively. during separate experime...

The application of iron and copper in combination with Rhizobium was studied with on the growth of Vignamungo(L.).The Vignamungo(L.) seeds were grown in different concentrations (0, 30, 60 and 90ppm) of iron and copper individually in natural conditions. This study has shown that copper and iron metal ions have stimulatory effects on plant growth at low concentration but it turns toxic at high ...

iron oxide (fe2o3) is widely used as a catalyst, pigment and gas sensitive material.  in this article, α-fe2o3 nano-rods were first synthesized via a simple chemical method using iron(iii) nitrate 9- hydrate (fe(no3)3.9h2o) as precursor. xrd pattern showed that the iron oxide nanoparticles exhibited alpha-fe2o3 (hematite) structure in nanocrystals. the single-phase α- fe2o3 nano-rods were prepa...

In order to evaluate the effect of medium and spraying calcium nano-fertilizer on quality of cut gerbera flowers, an experiment was conducted as factorial in completely randomized design with 7 media and 3 calcium nano-fertilizer concentrations with 3 replications. The media included cocopeat + perlite (1:1), peat moss + perlite (1:1), mushroom compost + perlite (1:1), peat moss + cocopeat + pe...
