this work was aimed to evaluate and compare the performances of the solvents d2ehpa (di-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid), cyanex 272 (bis (2,4,4-trimethylpentyl) phosphinic acid), and a mixture system of d2ehpa and cyanex272 in the separation of some rare earth elements (rees) including lanthanum, gadolinium, neodymium, and dyspersym from a nitric acid solution. the results obtained showed that ...

The objectives of this study were to confirm the non-absorbability and the reproducibility of faecal excretion kinetics of orally administered rare earth elements, and to investigate the excretion profiles of rare earth elements and stable isotopic tracers of Fe and Zn to establish the extent to which rare earth element markers duplicate the behaviour of isotopic tracers. Two investigations wer...

Rare earth elements (REEs) are metallic with electronic, magnetic, optical and catalytic properties which make them essential in many industrial medical fields. REEs therefore becoming emerging pollutants it is important to understand their implications for ecosystem health. However, little knowledge of REE bioaccumulation aquatic organisms available especially on internal distribution fish. In...
