Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBaseline Concentrations of 11 Elements as a Function of Land uses in Surface Soils of the Katangese Copperbelt Area (D.R. Congo)Martin T. Mpinda, Tresor N. Kisimba, Theodore M. Mwamba et al.The Katangese Copperbelt Area (KCA) located south-eastern of D.R. Congo presents high concentration of Metal Trace Elements (MTE) due to a rich natural geochemical background and intense mining activities. However, the lack of data on specific baseline concentrations makes it difficult to assess and monitor the environmental quality of soils in the region. In this study, 11 MTE were measured … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 6 · 3 Jan 2022 · 7,126 accessesView PDFCite

Approach: The study focused on the assessment of camel meat pollution on … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 27 Oct 2011 · 8,300 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImmunomodulatory and Antioxidant Activities of Selenium-Enriched Polysaccharides from Epimedium and Isatis IndigoticaRui Zhang, Jin Li, Jiajia ZhouThis study aims to investigate the effects of selenium modification on polysaccharides derived from two traditional Chinese medicinal herbs-Epimedium (Yinyanghuo) and Isatis root (Banlangen)-in enhancing immune function and antioxidant activity. The purpose is to explore the relationship between structure and function, providing a theoretical basis for the development of efficient plant-based functional antioxidants. Polysaccharides were extracted using an optimized enzymatic … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 3 Feb 2026 · 1,933 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMechanism of Garden Aquatic Plants in the Remediation of Heavy Metal-Contaminated SoilChen Chen, Guangwu LiuHeavy metals such as cadmium, lead, and mercury are resistant to microbial degradation in soil and persist for extended periods. They can bioaccumulate through the food chain, ultimately impacting human health. This study demonstrates that a combined restoration approach involving soil enhancement and garden aquatic plants, specifically through the application of ferrous sulfate, results in increased dry weight and plant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 20 Apr 2026 · 1,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsZinc Deficiency and Associated T-Cell Dysfunctioning among Human Immunodeficiency Virus SeropositivesM. Andrew Pradeep, M. Thiruvalluvan, V. Nalini, J. Stella MaryProblem statement: All the nutrients in the diet play a crucial role in maintaining an optimal immune response. In both, deficient and excessive intake of nutrients can have negative consequence on the immune status and susceptibility to a variety of pathogens. Zinc is an essential micronutrient for human growth development and immune function. It plays a vital role in structure … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,037 accessesView PDFCite
