Levels of trace metals (Cd, Pb, Co, Zn Cu and Ni) were determined in water and sediment
from the Tyume River. Occurrence of these metals in vegetables and soil from a nearby …

The concentration of trace metals (Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn) in a total of 144 samples of grass, soil
and lower animal (earthworm, Lybrodrilus violaceous) were collected and analysed for their …

The bioaccumulation factors (BAFs) of heavy metal (Fe, Zn, Pb, Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, and As)
concentrations in benthic and pelagic fish organs (muscles, gills, liver, and hearts), and …

A study on the characterization of sediment quality was conducted along a stretch of the
Benin River, Niger Delta, Nigeria, between June and December, 2011 to evaluate the …

We measured the level of heavy metal accumulation in lake sediments, herbivorous
(Oreochromis niloticus) and carnivorous (Serranochromis thumbergi) fish, and crayfish …

Worldwide, mangrove forests are under threat of the accumulation of pollutants, which may
be imported into mangrove ecosystems through the waters from rivers and streams. The …

The k0-method of neutron activation analysis (k0-NAA) was used in order to determine the
concentration of major and trace elements in sediment samples collected from different sites …

The concentration distribution and toxicological assessment of eight heavy metals including
lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni), mercury (Hg), arsenic (As) …

This paper reports the concentrations of eight trace metals (Cr, Zn, Cu, Pb, Ni, As, Cd, and
Hg) in the surficial sediments of the Berre lagoon. This is a typical Mediterranean lagoon …

Human health risks of five different heavy metals were assessed in nine typical areas in
Asia, Europe, and Africa. The geoaccumulation index (I geo) of arsenic (As) in Hyderabad …
