Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Shu-Lan Jin"
- Shu-Lan Jin's research primarily focuses on the environmental impacts of heavy metals and rare earth elements, specifically their uptake and accumulation in agricultural systems, as highlighted in studies involving rice seedlings and farmland soils.
- In one study, it was found that the interaction between boron and antimony affected rice seedling growth, with Sb(III) being more toxic than Sb(V), indicating significant implications for crop viability in contaminated environments.
- Another investigation highlighted the ecological risks posed by copper mining and smelting activities, revealing increased rare earth elements in surrounding farmland soils and crops, thus raising concerns over agricultural safety and food chain contamination.
