متن کاملHazards of heavy metal contamination.
The main threats to human health from heavy metals are associated with exposure to lead, cadmium, mercury and arsenic. These metals have been extensively studied and their effects on human health regularly reviewed by international bodies such as the WHO. Heavy metals have been used by humans for thousands of years. Although several adverse health effects of heavy metals have been known for a l...
متن کاملImpact of heavy metal contamination of Bellandur Lake on soil and cultivated vegetation
The aim of this study is to assess the extent of heavy metal contamination of vegetation due to irrigation with sewage-fed lake water on agricultural land. Samples of water, soil and crop plants have been analysed for seven heavy metals, viz. Fe, Zn, Cu, Ni, Cr, Pb and Cd using atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The results show the presence of some of the heavy metals in rice and vegetables,...
متن کاملChlorophyll a Fluorescence in Evaluation of the Effect of Heavy Metal Soil Contamination on Perennial Grasses
Chlorophyll a fluorescence gives information about the plant physiological status due to its coupling to the photosynthetic electron transfer chain and to the further biochemical processes. Environmental stresses, which acts synergistically, disturbs the photosynthesis. The OJIP test, elaborated by Strasser and co-workers, enables comparison of the physiological status of plants grown on pollut...
متن کاملPollution Status of Pakistan: A Retrospective Review on Heavy Metal Contamination of Water, Soil, and Vegetables
Trace heavy metals, such as arsenic, cadmium, lead, chromium, nickel, and mercury, are important environmental pollutants, particularly in areas with high anthropogenic pressure. In addition to these metals, copper, manganese, iron, and zinc are also important trace micronutrients. The presence of trace heavy metals in the atmosphere, soil, and water can cause serious problems to all organisms,...
