Comparative effects of salinomycin and meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) on lead induced impairment of reproductive function in male mice

Topic:

Heavy metals in the environment

Lead (Pb) directly targets testicular spermatogenesis and also the sperms in the epididymis inducing reproductive toxicity. In our study we compare the effects of meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) and tetraethylammonium salt of salinomycinic acid on Pb content and the endogenous levels of...Read more

Sources and transfer of Cu, Hg and Pb into marine food webs using innovative tracers (metal stable isotopes, trophic markers): results of a pilot study in a French coastal area

(Corresponding) Chouvelon T., Araujo D., Bouchoucha M., Briant N., Bruzac S., Crochet S., Knoery J., Ponzevera E., Rozuel E., Sireau T., Thomas B., Amouroux D., Bérail S., Brach-Papa C.

Topic:

Heavy metals in the environment

Copper (Cu), mercury (Hg) and lead (Pb) are elements and contaminants of historical and emerging concerns in coastal environments. Although Cu is considered essential for living organisms, it is bioactive in a narrow range of optimal concentrations. Hg and Pb have no known biological role and are...Read more

Coupling Pb and Zn bioaccessibility with sequential and HNO3 extraction in soil from the industrial area of Volos, Greece

(Corresponding) Kelepertzis E., Botsou F., Sungur A., Sigala E., Daferera O., Kypritidou Z., CHRASTNÝ V., Argyraki A., Komarek M., Skordas K.

Topic:

Heavy metals in the environment

The urban environment is a complicated system where various anthropogenic sources contribute to the accumulation of metals in soil, leading to potential negative environmental effects. Within this context, we performed single and sequential extractions in contaminated soil from the industrial area...Read more
