The concentration of heavy metals (HMs) in soil-plant systems was an important indicator soil metal pollution, and the migration transportation abilities HMs from to plants were great significance for evaluating food safety reducing health risks. This study conducted investigate contamination translocation soil-Paeonia lactiflora system Bozhou, Anhui Province, China. pollution assessed by calcu...

The contamination of riverbed sediments by heavy metals has assumedserious problems due to their toxicity and accumulative behavior. The present studyinvestigated the concentrations of heavy metals from the bottom sediments of ShitalakhyaRiver to understand the level of contamination and their distribution. The averageconcentrations of heavy metals Al, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, As, Cu, Co, Cr, and Zn are ...

Heavy metal (Pb, Zn, Cu, Cr, Ni, Mn and Cd) concentrations were investigated for the first time in core sediments of the Municipal Lake of Yaounde, Cameroon. The area under study receives domestic raw sewage from surrounding populated neighborhoods through River Mingoa, main tributary of the lake. Other activities like automobile service stations, garages, non operational effluent treatment sta...

Soil samples in Moryayla village located 156 km northeast of Erzurum and Cu mineralization area around it were collected randomly. In these samples, 20 taken order to investigate the metals found pollution limits sources that cause this pollution. The geochemical analyzes (Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn Fe) soil made evaluated with parameters. calculation parameters, enrichment factor (EF); geoaccumula...

Background and Aim: In recent years, the use of herbal oral care products has been taken into consideration for reducing dental plaque accumulation. Propolis has been widely used in medicine due to its multiple biological properties. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antiplaque efficacy of an herbal toothpaste containing propolis in comparison with a control group. Materials and Method...

Soils in the Lower Swansea Valley, (United Kingdom) contain elevated level of metals, enough to cause direct or indirect effects on human health. This study assesses severity soil pollution and bioavailability Cu other metals (Ni, Zn, Co, Pb Cr) soils with various distances from a Ni refinery. We compare concentrations operationally defined fractions (bioavailable, bound Fe/Mn oxide incorporate...
