Biogenic silicon nanoparticles mitigate cadmium (Cd) toxicity in rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) by modulating the cellular oxidative stress metabolism and reducing Cd translocation

Temoor Ahmed et al.

Summary: By modulating cellular oxidative repair mechanisms, the use of biogenic silicon nanoparticles can alleviate cadmium stress in rapeseed plants. The treatment with these nanoparticles significantly improved growth parameters, photosynthetic efficiency, and antioxidant enzyme activities in rapeseed plants. Furthermore, the treatment also mitigated the damage caused by cadmium, altered gene expressions, and influenced metal accumulation in the plants.

Bioremediation of Battery Scrap Waste Contaminated Soils Using Coco Grass (Cyperus rotundus L.): A Prediction Modeling Study for Cadmium and Lead Phytoextraction

Arwa A. AL-Huqail et al.

Summary: With the increasing demand for electronic devices, e-waste containing hazardous heavy metals is becoming a major environmental threat. This study evaluates the phytoremediation potential of Cyperus rotundus L. in soils contaminated with battery scrap waste (BSW), specifically for the heavy metals cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb). The results showed that BSW mixing significantly increased the heavy metal content in the soil, resulting in reduced growth and biochemical traits of C. rotundus. However, C. rotundus was found to be a hyperaccumulator plant capable of absorbing Cd and Pb, making it a potential candidate for phytoremediation of BSW-contaminated soils.

Evaluation of heavy metals contamination in cereals, vegetables and fruits with probabilistic health hazard in a highly polluted megacity

Ram Proshad et al.

Summary: Heavy metals (HMs) contamination in foodstuffs poses serious health issues, with cereals, fruits, and vegetables being potential sources of exposure. This study assessed 11 HMs in foodstuffs, finding that Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, and Pb exceeded maximum permissible concentrations (MPCs), indicating contamination and health risks. Vegetables had the highest metal contents, followed by cereals and fruits. Intakes of studied metals exceeded recommended limits and posed non-carcinogenic and potential carcinogenic risks. Practical evaluation techniques will aid policymakers in controlling metal contamination in foodstuffs.

Effect of jasmonic acid on the phytoremediation of dinitrophenol from wastewater by Solanum nigrum L. and Atriplex lentiformis (Torr.) S. Watson

Arwa Abdulkreem AL-Huqail

Summary: Phytoremediation, using eco-friendly plants, is an effective method for cleaning up natural resources like water. This study investigated the potential of Solanum nigrum and Atriplex lentiformis in removing dinitrophenol (DNP) from wastewater. The results showed that the application of jasmonic acid (JAC) improved the growth and phytoremediation effectiveness of the tested plants. These findings are crucial for cleaning up polluted water and protecting the ecosystem's health.

Appraisal of probabilistic levels of toxic metals and health risk in cultivated and marketed vegetables in urban and peri-urban areas of Delhi, India

Sandeep Kumar et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the contamination load of six vegetables collected from five cultivated sites and two market sites in Delhi, India. The concentrations of heavy metals in soil and water samples were generally below the permissible level, except for slightly higher levels of Cd. Spinach had the highest pollution index value, while tomato had the lowest.

Spatial Assessment of Potentially Toxic Elements (PTE) Concentration in Agaricus bisporus Mushroom Collected from Local Vegetable Markets of Uttarakhand State, India

Pankaj Kumar et al.

Summary: This study presents a spatial assessment of potentially toxic elements in white button mushroom samples collected from local vegetable markets in Uttarakhand State, India. The results showed that all sampling locations had detectable levels of these elements, but the concentrations were below permissible limits, indicating no potential hazard in consuming the mushrooms being sold in the local markets.

Risk Assessment of Heavy Metals Occurrence in Two Wild Edible Oyster Mushrooms (Pleurotus spp.) Collected from Rajaji National Park

Ivan Siric et al.

Summary: This study assessed the concentration of six heavy metals in two species of wild edible oyster mushrooms collected from Rajaji National Park in Haridwar, India. The results showed significant variation in heavy metal concentrations between the two mushroom species, with P. ostreatus having higher levels. The locations near residential, industrial, and transportation activities had higher levels of heavy metals, as indicated by multivariate analysis.

Health Risk Assessment of Hazardous Heavy Metals in Two Varieties of Mango Fruit (Mangifera indica L. var. Dasheri and Langra)

Ivan Siric et al.

Summary: This study investigated the spatial assessment of four heavy metals in two varieties of mango fruit from Saharanpur district in India. The concentration of heavy metals did not exceed the safe limits and varied significantly across different locations. The Dasheri variety had higher heavy metal concentrations compared to the Langra variety. The health risk assessment showed that the levels of heavy metals were within the safe limit, but the risk was relatively higher for children compared to adults.
