Microalgae are one of the most important organisms in our ecosystems being seriously affected by metal pollution. However, the microalgae Tetraselmis suecica (Kylin) Butch is tolerant to cadmium; the concentration of this metal that reduces the population growth to 50% of the control growth level is 5.8 mg/L after 96 h of exposure. In this study, class III metallothioneins were investigated for...
BACKGROUND Environment pollution by heavy metals is a global disaster and there are several cleaning methods including bioremediation. Trichoderma species inhibit the growth of pathogenic fungi and play a useful role in agriculture and ecosystem management. METHODS In this study, the removing of cadmium ions by three species of Trichoderma (T. asperellum, T. harzianum and T. tomentosum) were ...
Abbasi, S. A. and R. Soni (1986). "An examination of environmentally safe levels of zinc (II), cadmium (II) and lead (II) with reference to impact on channelfish Nuria denricus." Environmental Pollution Series A, Ecological and Biological 40(1): 37-51. As a continuation of our earlier studies on the impact of heavy metals on aquatic organisms (Abbasi & Soni, 1984), the behavioural responses and...
Cadmium and lead have been identified as very toxic metals, which are widely present in the environment due to natural and anthropogenic emissions. Many studies have shown that the food chain is the main pathway of cadmium and lead transfer from the environment to humans. It is well documented that many factors will affect their transfer through food chains. Previous investigations on heavy met...
Background and purpose: Heavy metals cause major environmental pollution. They accumulate in soil, plants and crops through irrigation with polluted effluents or wastewaters. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to evaluate the concentration of lead and cadmium in soil and irrigation water and their accumulation in pith, flesh, and the skin of kiwifruit. Materials and methods: A sample of...
Environmental pollution nowadays is a big concern. Anthropogenic activities have altered the environment significantly throughout the world like mining, industry and agriculture. This causes an increase in the Lead(Pb), Cadmium(Cd), Arsenic(As) content of soil and water, thus contaminating them. The increased uptake of these metals by plants influences the natural contents of vegetables and thu...
Heavy metal contamination in lake sediments is a serious problem, particularly in developing countries such as China. To evaluate heavy metal pollution and risk of contamination in lake sediments on a national scale in China, we collated available data in the literature of the last 10 years on lake sediments polluted with heavy metals from 24 provinces in China. Based on these data, we used sed...
BACKGROUND A previous study revealed an environmental contamination by heavy metals in the vicinity of two non-ferrous metal plants in Ath, Belgium. The purpose of the current cross-sectional study was to estimate exposure of the population to heavy metals in the vicinity of the plants, in comparison with population living further away. METHODS We did a random sampling in the general populati...
Nano zerovalent iron (nZVI) is an effective adsorbent for removing various organic and inorganic contaminants. In this study, nZVI particles were used to investigate the removal of Cd(2+) in the concentration range of 25-450 mg L(-1). The effect of temperature on kinetics and equilibrium of cadmium sorption on nZVI particles was thoroughly examined. Consistent with an endothermic reaction, an i...
Raw wheat bran (R-WB) was used as a biomass adsorbent. The properties of R-WB were investigated. Moreover, the adsorption of cadmium and lead ions onto R-WB was evaluated. Adsorption equilibrium of cadmium and lead ions onto R-WB was achieved within 10 h, indicating that the adsorption followed a pseudo-second-order model rather than a pseudo-first-order kinetic model. The adsorption amount inc...
