European Journal of Theoretical and Applied Sciences, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 2(1), С. 546 - 565

Опубликована: Янв. 1, 2024

This research looks at how the growth of cities and industries affects levels heavy metals in soil, which can impact people's health. We find out where pollution comes from, such as factories, car fumes, improper waste disposal, by reviewing existing studies. use different methods to test soil for study exposure these urban areas The evidence shows a connection between high city health problems like breathing issues, brain disorders, overall toxicity body. also explore get into human body, highlighting importance understanding they are available ways people exposed. To deal with polluted soils, we look manage suggest sustainable reduce metal pollution. Our discoveries add what know about environmental health, emphasizing need actions protect residents. Ultimately, this aims give important information insights policymakers, planners, public officials managing lessening risks linked contamination soils.

Arsenic Contamination of Groundwater Is Determined by Complex Interactions between Various Chemical and Biological Processes

Toxics, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 12(1), С. 89 - 89

Опубликована: Янв. 19, 2024

At a great many locations worldwide, the safety of drinking water is not assured due to pollution with arsenic. Arsenic toxicity matter both systems chemistry and biology: it determined by complex intertwined networks chemical reactions in inanimate environment, microbes that human body. We here review what known about these their interconnections. then discuss how consideration aspects arsenic levels groundwater may open up new avenues towards realization safer water. Along such avenues, geochemical microbiological conditions can optimize microbial ecology vis-à-vis reduced toxicity.

Heavy Metal Contamination: Sources, Health Impacts, and Sustainable Mitigation Strategies with Insights from Nigerian Case Studies

F1000Research, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 14, С. 134 - 134

Опубликована: Янв. 27, 2025

Heavy metal contamination has gradually become a very much important significant global issue due to its continual existence in the environment and bioaccumulation ecosystems, posing deleterious risks human health. This review aims investigate sources, pathways, toxicological impacts of heavy metals such as cadmium, lead, mercury, arsenic, elucidating their health consequences plausible mitigation strategies. Furthermore, explores dual origins contamination; natural geological processes anthropogenic activities industrial emissions, mining, agricultural practices. These sip into soil, water, food chains, leading bioaccumulation, bio-magnification causing risks, including cardiovascular diseases, neurological disorders, reproductive toxicity. Additionally, addition indigenous case studies from Nigeria, lead poisoning Zamfara State Great Kwa River Cross Rivers underscores disproportionate impact pollution developing nations. reveal socio-economic environmental dimensions issue, providing contextual understanding region-specific vulnerabilities outcomes. To address these problems, evaluates already existing strategies, chelation therapy phytoremediation, while proposing sustainable, cost-effective solutions for reducing exposure mitigating impacts. It emphasizes importance integrative approaches involving policy, community engagement, technological innovations fight effectively. In conclusion, this seminar contributes toxicity, giving showcasing insights sources implications contamination. By integrating theoretical perspectives with practical solutions, provides robust framework informing policy makers advancing sustainable management practices.

Recent Advances in Transcriptome Analysis Within the Realm of Low Arsenic Rice Breeding

Plants, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 14(4), С. 606 - 606

Опубликована: Фев. 17, 2025

Arsenic (As), a toxic element, is widely distributed in soil and irrigation water. Rice (Oryza sativa L.), the staple food Southern China, exhibits greater propensity for As uptake compared to other crops. pollution paddy fields not only impairs rice growth but also poses serious threat security human health. Nevertheless, molecular mechanism underlying response toxicity has been completely revealed until now. Transcriptome analysis represents powerful tool revealing mechanisms conferring phenotype formation employed crop breeding. Consequently, this review focuses on recent advances transcriptome within realm of low breeding rice. It particularly highlights applications identifying genes responsive toxicity, gene interaction regulatory modules analyzing secondary metabolite biosynthesis pathways. Furthermore, tolerance are updated, outcomes summarized. Finally, challenges associated with applying low-As deliberated upon, future research directions envisioned, aim providing references expedite high-yield low-arsenic
