Research on the impact of soil contamination on crops is important as plants directly take up heavy metals from the soil through the roots, so […]
Determination of heavy metals in root crops using bismuth nanoparticles modified graphene paste electrode
Electrochemical detection of lead (Pb2+) and cadmium (Cd2+) was accomplished via anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV) using bismuth nanoparticle (BiNP) modified graphene paste electrode (GPE). The […]
Assessment of wild plants for phytoremediation of heavy metals in soils surrounding the thermal power station
The present investigation was carried out to evaluate the phytoextraction potential of three main wild plant species: annual nettle (Urtica urens L.), daisy fleabane (Stenactis […]
Uptake of heavy metals by food crops from highly-polluted Chernozem-like soils in an irrigation district south of Tbilisi, eastern Georgia
In the middle and lower reaches of the Mashavera valley in SE Georgia, most of the irrigated soils under different agricultural land use display a […]
Influence of the Ore Mining and Processing Enterprise on soil types in adjoining areas
Anthropogenic influence on surroundings has induced anthropogenic or technogenic biogeochemical anomalies, where sharp a increase in the content of chemical elements has been established. Due […]
