Štúdium viazania stopových prvkov v sedimente vodnej nádrže Ružín Pre účely posúdenia možnosti využitia fyzikálnych a fyzikálno-chemických metód separácie, vybraná vzorka sedimentu z Ružína bola podrobené 5-stupňovej procedúre sekvenčnej extrakcie (SE) podľa Tessiera (Tessier et al., 1979) a Horowitza (Horowitz, 1991). Vo výluhoch bolo stanovované zastúpenie konštitučných (Fe, Mn, Ca a Mg) ako ...

The objective of this study was to determine if exposure to divalent cations, Cd(2+), Ni(2+), and Co(2+) would lead to malformations in Xenopus laevis embryos, and whether addition of Mg(2+) and Zn(2+); separately and in combination, would reduce their toxicity and teratogenicity on the embryos of Xenopus laevis as assessed by 96-h FETAX tests. Results indicate that exposure to Cd(2+), Ni(2+) o...

The ability of water hyacinth ( Eichhornia crassipes Mart. Solms.) to absorb and translocate cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), and nickel (Ni) was studied in the Erh-Chung wetlands. Translocation ability was defined as the quantity of Cu, Pb, Cd, Ni, and Zn translocated in the plant’s tissues, and was expressed as a root/shoot ratio. The ratio results were in the order of Cu>Pb>C...

fifty street dust samples were collected from southern and eastern parts of tehran, the capitalof iran. samples were collected during summer under dry and stable weather conditions. total concentrationsof copper (cu), cadmium (cd), lead (pb), chromium (cr), nickel (ni), zinc (zn), iron (fe), manganese (mn)and lithium (li) were determined. ten samples were then selected for characterization, met...

heavy metal concentrations in surface water, wastewater and sediments collected from mighan lake in markazi province, iran were analyzed, and assessment contamination were evaluated according to the water and sediment quality guidelines. the results showed that the average concentrations of heavy metals in water were ranked as: ni> cr> pb> fe> cu> zn. in comparison with results the background v...

In this study, interfacial reactions of electrolytic Ni and electroless Ni(P) metallization of the ball-grid-array (BGA) substrate with the molten n–9Zn (wt.%) eutectic solder alloy were investigated, focusing on the shear strengths and the identification of the intermetallic compound IMC) phases at various reflow periods. Zn-containing Pb-free solder alloys were kept in molten condition (240 ◦...

the bioavailability of trace metals, their biological uptake and ecotoxiccological effect on soil biota can be better understood in terms of their chemical fractionation. the present study examined the mobility and availability of cd, cu, ni, pb and zn in sewage water – irrigated soils using sequential extraction technique as a basis for predicting metal uptake by plants. the residual fraction ...
