Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMicrotox Toxicity Assay for the Sediment Quality Assessment of Ganga RiverK.R. Beg, S. AliThe objective of this study was to determine the sediment quality assessment of Ganga River at Kanpur city where effluents from tannery industries are discharged. Sediment samples from control, upstream and downstream area were collected and analyzed for bacterial toxicity bioassay along with a reference sediment (LGC6137). The control samples collected from the point of origin of Ganga River at … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,614 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChemical Contaminants and Toxicity of Ganga River Sediment from Up and Down Stream Area at KanpurK. R. Beg, S. AliThe objective of this study was the sediment quality assessment of Ganga River at Kanpur city where effluents from tannery industries are discharged. Sediment samples from upstream and downstream area were collected and analyzed for trace metals and toxicity bioassay. Among various trace metals examined Cr in downstream sediment was 30-fold higher than in upstream sediment and its concentration was … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,601 accessesView PDF Cite
