Rapid growth in urbanization and industrialization has increased the levels of heavy metals in the environment and consequently in the food chain. Consumption of contaminated food by human beings and other animals may pose a serious threat to their health. Vegetables are a major portion of the human diet, providing microand macronutrients, fibers, antioxidants, vitamins, etc. Vegetables are oft...
Overlying water, sediment, rhizosphere sediment and mangrove seedlings in the Futian mangrove forest were analyzed for heavy metals. The results showed that mangrove plant acidified sediment and increased organic matter contents. Except for chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni) and copper (Cu) in Aegiceras corniculatum sediment, heavy metals in all sediments were higher than in overlying water, rhizospher...
Background and purpose: Heavy metals can enter into animals’ body through consumption of contaminated food and water and leave toxic effects on different organs. Considering the potential public health risk posed by heavy metal contamination, information about concentration of heavy metals in animals can help in analyzing the suitability of ecosystems. Materials and methods: This study...
Concentrations of Ni, V, Pb and Cu were determined in bottom sediments and liver, gills and fillet of Euryglossa orientalis and Chirocentrus nudus along the Bahrekan Bay in the Northwest part of the Persian Gulf in Iran. Sediment samples and fish species were collected during winter 2013 and spring 2014. Heavy metal analysis was performed by atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Results showed t...
Therefore fruits and vegetables are very useful for the maintenance of health as a preventive treatment of various diseases (D’ mello, 2003). The presence of heavy metals may have a negative influence on the quality of vegetables and fruits causing changes to their taste and smell. The term heavy metals to any metallic elements that has a relative density greater than 4gcm -3 . In the group of ...
Investigation of heavy metal tolerance genes in green algae is of great importance because heavy metals have become one of the major contaminants in the aquatic ecosystem. In plants, accumulation of heavy metals modifies many aspects of cellular functions. However, the mechanism by which heavy metals exert detrimental effects is poorly understood. In this study, we identified a role for HO-1 (e...
This study used hair and nails to biomonitor heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Cr and Cu) from geological source and exposure through regular fish consumption among children in Lake Victoria, Kenya. Concentration of Pb and Cu in water reflected anthropogenic pathways, while Cd and Cr reflected accumulation from the catchment basin. Higher concentration of heavy metals in the nails samples than the hair sam...
Background and purpose: There is an increasing interest towards consumption of aquatic products, therefore, the health of aqua ecosystems is highly important. Heavy metal pollution in fish is a global concern due to its bioaccumulation potential, toxicity and persistence in food chain. This study investigated the concentration of heavy metals (cadmium, lead, chromium, copper, and zinc) in the g...
in vascular plants, the soil solution is transported from the roots to the leaves through smalldiameter vessels found in the xylem; this transport not only allows the nutrient uptake but also the accumulation of heavy metals in their shoots. by analogy to this phenomenon, the present study aimed at the evaluation of heavy metals transport (pb, cr, as, cd, zn, ni and al) in ph 4 and ph 8 solutio...
