A new high-performance analytical procedure for the determination of the toxic trace metals cadmium, lead and copper in wines by differential pulse anodic-stripping voltammetry (DPASV) subsequent to UV irradiation of the sample is compared with the hitherto more common application of electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). In this manner also mutually the accuracy attainable with both alternatives has been established. The particularly favourable potentialities of the new voltammetric approach for toxic metal control of wines are demonstrated by the investigation of a typical selection of 36 wines from recent vintages and common vine types of the German and some European wine cultivating regions.

The detrimental effects of cadmium (Cd), a hazardous heavy metal, on fish have triggered global concerns. While the ecotoxicity of Cd on fish has been investigated, the impact of Cd on muscle quality and its correlation with the gut microbiota in fish remains scarce. To comprehensively uncover Cd effects based on preliminary muscle Cd deposition, relevant studies, and ecological Cd pollution data, we exposed Labeo rohita to Cd under concentrations of 0.

Background: Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal present in environment that has potential to instigate renal toxicity. Didymin (DDM) is a natural flavone, which shows anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic nature. Therefore, the current study was formulated to appraise attenuative potential of DDM against Cd instigated nephrotoxicity.

Infants are particularly vulnerable to exposure to toxic trace elements due to their developmental stage and behaviors such as mouthing and chewing on toys. Chemical exposure to heavy metals in infants' toys is a significant concern as it poses a threat to their health and well-being. Therefore, quality control measures are essential to prevent infants' exposure to potentially harmful metals.

Thallium (Tl), recognized for its high toxicity, is subject to stringent international regulations regarding its permissible concentrations at ultra-trace levels. In this study, titanium dioxide (TiO) was integrated with potassium (K)-rich biochar to create TiO/biochar (TiO/BC) composites for synergistic enhancement in ultra-trace Tl(I) removal, focusing on achieving concentration below the rigorous local threshold of 0.1 μg/L for drinking water.

The accumulation pattern of some inorganic pollutants in quarry sites around Ogun State was modeled using a Fuzzy comprehensive assessment (FCA). Potentially toxic elements (PTEs) and naturally occurring radionuclides materials (NORMs) were assessed from soil samples collected from ten quarry sites in three districts (Odeda, Ajebo, and Ijebu Ode) in Ogun State. Three (3) NORMs ( K, U, Th) were assessed using gamma spectrometer with a NaI detector while ten (10) PTEs (As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn) were determined by digestion method using Inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrophotometer.
