The concentrations of eight potentially toxic metals (i.e., As, Co, Cr, Cu, Cd, Ni, Pb, and Zn) their contamination levels in dust collected from some schools Shiraz city, Iran, have been studied this work. pollution was assessed using ordinary indices PI, Igeo, EF). results calculated load index (PLI) revealed that the status can be more likely attributed to anthropogenic activities region. also indicated traffic combustion fossil fuels as well industrial are primary sources rised heavy...
The purpose of this study was to determine the contamination level, distribution, health risk and potential sources Cr, Cd, Pb, Zn, Cu, Ni As in 66 topsoil samples from industrial areas Bandar Abbas County. geoaccumulation index, pollution index load were calculated assess level soils. hazard carcinogenic used human heavy metals. Results showed that levels metals descending order Cu> Cd> Pb> Zn> As> Ni> Cr. Moreover, based on principal component analysis, Pb originated mainly anthropogenic...
Potentially toxic elements (PTE) are considered to be dangerous threats, both for human health and the environment. Here, contamination level, sources, ecological risks posed by PTE were investigated in 19 topsoils from agricultural lands Bandar Abbas County on southern coast of Iran. The soil fraction <63 μm was used analysis pseudototal contents (arsenic, cadmium, cobalt, chromium, copper, lead, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, vanadium, zinc). results analyzed using principal component...
Classrooms are an important environment for young children as this is where they spend a large part of their time.This study was designed to quantify the levels heavy metals in classroom dusts Shiraz, city southwestern Iran. The potential association between metal and childhood asthma also investigated.We selected 32 schools collecting dust samples during September-November 2016. concentration 10 measured these by optical emission spectrometry. diagnosis made using both medical chart each...
Abstract Contamination by heavy metals (HM) is a global concern due to their impact on terrestrial and aquatic environments. This question has great relevance in agricultural areas excessive chemical fertilization. In this sense, Cd toxic element that can reach soils through fertilization or sewage sludges. Tobacco plants ( Nicotiana tabacum L.) uptake accumulate tissues, therefore, an increased risk for human health tobacco consumption. study was performed evaluate the response of single...
