Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotentiometric Biosensor for Highly Toxic Pb (lead) and Cd (cadmium) Detection in Milk Using Layer-by-Layer ImmobilizationZhainagul Kakimova, Klara Zharykbasova, Aitbek Kakimov et al.Milk contamination with heavy metals such as lead (Pb) and Cadmium (Cd) poses a serious threat to public health, particularly in industrial regions. To address the need for rapid and on-site detection of these contaminants, a potentiometric biosensor was developed for the quantification of Pb²⁺ and Cd²⁺ ions in milk and dairy products. The biosensor functions by measuring the change … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 8 Feb 2026 · 1,480 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMetabolite Profiles of Arsenic Tolerant Plants Regenerated from Stem Calli of Andrographis paniculata (Burm.f.) Nees using HPLC and 1D 1H NMRJ. Vijayakumar, P. Ponmanickam, P. Samuel et al.In vitro culture provide a suitable condition for regeneration of arsenic tolerant plants from stem calli of Andrographis paniculata (Burm.f.) Nees. The regenerated plants could be valuable material applicable to soil remediation. In vitro culture of stem explants on MS basal salts, 3.0% sucrose, 0.8% agar medium fortified with various concentrations of As2O3 (0.0-9.0 µM) along with NAA (3.5 mg … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 27 Oct 2017 · 7,865 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractValuation of Biomaterial: Phragmites australis in the Retention of Metal-Complexed DyesAida Kesraoui, Asma Mabrouk, Mongi SeffenThe purpose of this research was to estimate the potential of cellulosic fibers of highly available and renewable Tunisian biomass Phragmites australis for the biosorption of an anionic metal complexed dye: Alpacide blue. The present study shows that the Phragmite australis were used successfully for the adsorption of Alpcide blue from aqueous solution. Equilibrium was reached after 5 h at … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 5 Jun 2017 · 7,421 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeavy Metals Content of the Grassland Soil around Katima Mulilo Municipal Solid Wastes Dumpsite, NamibiaJ. Abah, P. Mashebe, S.A. OnjefuThe effects of open wastes dumpsites on the immediate vicinity continue to generate safety concern. This study determined the levels of lead, chromium, cadmium, arsenic, nickel, cobalt, copper and manganese in soil samples collected at two depths: 0-15 and 15-30 cm within and around Katima Mulilo municipal solid wastes dumpsite and a control site. The samples were digested according to … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 18 Mar 2017 · 7,481 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Permeable Reactive Barriers to Remediate Heavy Metal-Contaminated Groundwater through a Laboratory Column ExperimentSomean Yin, Gemunu Herath, Sokchhay Heng, Senajith KalpageRecently, groundwater sources are being polluted by various activities such as agriculture, livestock, decentralized wastewater treatment systems and acid rain. Groundwater can also be polluted by landfill leachate, sewage, mine tailings, non-engineered deep well disposal of liquid waste and seepage from industrial waste lagoons. There are many studies reported contaminated groundwater remediation using Permeable Reactive Barrier systems (PRBs) and many … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 12 Mar 2017 · 8,761 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhytoremediation and Adsorption of Heavy Industry Emitted from Cement Industry through Plant Leaves, Case Study: Golestan Peivand Cement FactorySoleyman Ghorbanzadeh, Meysam Madadi, Sara Abdollahi, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariCement factories are found to be one of the major causes of pollution. Cement mist and dusts depositions affect the photosynthesis, secretion and fertility of the plant. Increasing the concentration of airborne dust reduces photosynthetic potential in leaves, closes leaf stomatals and, in general, reduces the growth and fertility of plants. The purpose of this study is to determine the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 23 Nov 2020 · 6,438 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe interplay between Cadmium and Zinc Induced Developmental Perturbations and Apoptosis in Daphnia MagnaNaima Hamid, Siti Nur Airina Binti Ibrahim et al.Assessing combined toxicity provides a realistic and comprehensive approach to determining toxicological effects in aquatic species under environmentally relevant conditions. This study was conducted to understand the effects of single and combined metal mixtures on freshwater flea and Daphnia magna. Environmentally Relevant Concentrations (ERCs) of Cadmium (Cd) and Zinc (Zn) at a low dose (10μg/L) and high dose (30 μg/L) … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 11 Jun 2025 · 6,015 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Heavy Metals in Gadus morhua and the Associated Cancer RisksKayode Idowu Ogungbemi, Margaret Bose Adedokun, Josephine Nneamaka Onyeka-UbakaGadus morhua is a good protein source but some methods of its preservation can be a source of heavy metals contamination.

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
