In this study, we investigated the bioaccumulation of copper (Cu) by microgreen algae Scenedesmus acutus and Chlorella vulgaris and toxicity of dietborne copper from algae to benthic ostracod Heterocypris incongruens. Scenedesmus acutus and C. vulgaris were exposed to different concentrations of waterborne Cu for 10 days then the ostracod was fed this food exclusively under 24h dark condition f...

Anthropogenic activities have caused important increases in soil Cu levels not only in urban areas but also in croplands. This study was designed to find out the effect of different concentration of copper on physiological and biochemical changes in Eucalyptus camaldulensis seedlings. Seeds of Eucalyptus camaldulensis were grown in marble chips and irrigated with nutrient solution mixed with co...

Returning crop residues into the soil as a source of organic matter are an important source of copper and can play an important role in the soil fertility. In addition to the role of the organic matter in increasing the concentration of micronutrients in soil solution, attention should be also paid to the role of the kind and the quantity of the root’s exudates released in response to the incor...

Serum level of zinc, copper, β-carotene, vitamin A, and concentrations of Zn and Cu in hoof of 97multiparous Holstein dairy cows with different locomotion scores (LSs) were evaluated. Simultaneously, Znand Cu concentrations of close up, fresh and high yielding cattle rations were 77, 94, 75 and 31, 28, 22 ppm, respectively. Based on LSs, despite normal serum copper levels in all three groups, w...
