Water pollution from Heavy metal (HM) contamination poses a critical threat to environmental sustainability and public health. Industrial activities have increased the presence of HMs in wastewater, necessitating effective remediation strategies. Conventional methods like chemical precipitation, ion exchange, adsorption, and membrane filtration are widely used but possess various limitations.

Seeds of four native species of trees and shrubs (Larrea cuneifolia, Bulnesia retama, Plectrocarpa tetracantha and Prosopis flexuosa) were exposed to soil contaminated with As, Cu, Cd, and Zn from an abandoned gold mine to identify adaptation strategies. Several physiological, morpho-anatomical, and biochemical parameters were determined. The seed germination of L.

Assessing groundwater contamination risk is a critical aspect of preventing and managing groundwater pollution. There was a research gap in the investigation of uncertainties in modeling groundwater contamination risks in aquifers. This study addresses this gap using Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA), with a novel focus on risk exposures from geogenic contaminants, such as lead (Pb).

Background: Leptospirosis is an acute zoonotic disease caused by pathogenic , primarily transmitted to humans through contact with water or soil contaminated by the bacteria. It is globally distributed, with heightened prevalence in tropical regions. While prior studies have examined the pathophysiology, epidemiology, and risk factors of leptospirosis, few have explored trends and emerging topics in the field.

Trace contaminants are toxic and their widespread presence in the environment potentially threatens human health. The levels of these pollutants are often difficult to determine directly using instruments owing to the complexities of environment matrices. Hence, pretreatment steps, such as sample purification and concentration, are key along with various processes that enhance the accuracy and sensitivity of the detection method.
