Assessment of the effects of oxamyl on the bacterial community of an agricultural soil exhibiting enhanced biodegradation
(2019)Modern agricultural practices largely rely on pesticides to protect crops against various pests and to ensure high yields. Following their application to crops a large amount of pesticides ends up in soil where they may ... -
Bioaugmentation of animal feces as a mean to mitigate environmental contamination with anthelmintic benzimidazoles
(2021)Anthelmintics are used to control infestations of ruminants by gastrointestinal nematodes. The limited metabolism of anthelmintics in animals result in their excretion in feces. These could be piled up in the floor of ... -
Cyanotoxins as the “common suspects” for the Dalmatian pelican (Pelecanus crispus) deaths in a Mediterranean reconstructed reservoir
(2018)Toxic cyanobacterial blooms have been implicated for their negative consequences on many terrestrial and aquatic organisms. Water birds belong to the most common members of the freshwater food chains and are most likely ... -
Estimating remobilization of potentially toxic elements in soil and road dust of an industrialized urban environment
(2022)The mobility of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) is of paramount concern in urban settings, particularly those affected by industrial activities. Here, contaminated soils and road dusts of the medium-size, industrialized ... -
Green remediation of toxic metals contaminated mining soil using bacterial consortium and Brassica juncea
(2021)Microorganism-assisted phytoremediation is being developed as an efficient green approach for management of toxic metals contaminated soils and mitigating the potential human health risk. The capability of plant growth ... -
Hazardous toxic metal(loid)s in top- and deep-soils during the transformation of aquaculture ponds restored to farmland
(2022)The pollution risks due to the soil migration of toxic metal(loid)s (TMs) are a greatly hazard to ecological environment as well as animal and human health. Previous studies have primarily focused on surface contamination ... -
Health risk assessment of potentially toxic elements in soils along the Central Elbe River, Germany
(2019)Floodplain soils across Central Elbe River (CER), Germany, vary considerably in potentially toxic element (PTE) content. However, there has never been a comprehensive study that links PTE levels with human health risk for ... -
Identification and characterization of tebuconazole transformation products in soil by combining suspect screening and molecular typology
(2016)Pesticides generate transformation products (TPs) when they are released into the environment. These TPs may be of ecotoxicological importance. Past studies have demonstrated how difficult it is to predict the occurrence ... -
Integrated assessment of the impact of land use types on soil pollution by potentially toxic elements and the associated ecological and human health risk
(2022)The impact of land use type on the content of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) in the soils of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) and the associated ecological and human health risks has drawn great attention. Consequently, ... -
Investigation of Extraction Methods for the Assessment of the Pseudo-Total Concentration of Potentially Toxic Elements in Moderately Contaminated Soils of Central Greece
(2020)The aim of this research was the investigation of the effectiveness of several extractants as possible assessment of pseudo-total As, Pb and Cu concentrations in moderately contaminated soils of Central Greece. In soils ... -
Leaching of the organophosphorus nematicide fosthiazate
(2007)Fosthiazate is an organophosphorus nematicide which was recently included in Annex I of the Directive 91/414/EEC under the clause that it should be used with special care in soils vulnerable to leaching. Thus, the leaching ... -
Rainfed cultivation with supplemental irrigation modelling on seed yield and oil of Coriandrum sativum L. using precision agriculture and GIS moisture mapping
(2021)The aim of the present study was to determine the effects of rainfed and supplemental irrigation, and sowing period (SP) treatments on coriander (Coriandrum sativum L) yield, essential oil content and umbel heights by ... -
Sorption of Cu and Zn in low organic matter-soils as influenced by soil properties and by the degree of soil weathering
(2015)Copper and Zn sorption and desorption, among other factors, depend on soil pH, but in soils with different degree of weathering the role of other soil properties (. e.g., oxides content and the level of their crystallinity) ...
