Ecological Health Hazards and Multivariate Assessment of Contamination Sources of Potentially Toxic Elements from Al-Lith Coastal Sediments, Saudi Arabia

Minerals, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 14(11), P. 1150 - 1150

Published: Nov. 13, 2024

To assess the contamination levels, sources, and ecological health risks of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in sediments Al Lith on Saudi Red Sea coast, 25 samples were collected analyzed for Zn, V, Cr, Cu, Ni, As, Pb, Fe using inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry. The average concentrations PTEs (μg/g) obtained following order: (14,259) > V (28.30) Zn (22.74) Cr (16.81) Cu (12.41) Ni (10.63) As (2.66) Pb (2.46). values enrichment factor (1.12) (0.75) (0.70) (0.69) (0.67) (0.46). This indicated that exhibited either no or minimal PTEs, with below low effect range. suggests primary source these is minerals associated basement rocks Arabian Shield (sphalerite, vanadiferous magnetite, chromite, pentlandite, arsenopyrite, galena) they are unlikely to pose a substantial risk benthic communities. hazard index (HI) both adults children 1.0, indicating significant non-carcinogenic risk. lifetime cancer (LCR) within acceptable tolerable posing threats. However, few showed LCR exceeding 1 × 10−4, which may indicate potential risks.
