Arsenic Methyltransferase and Methylation of Inorganic Arsenic [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2020 Arsenic occurs naturally in the environment, and exists predominantly as inorganic arsenite (As (III) and arsenate As (V)). Arsenic contamination of drinking water has long been recognized as a major global health concern. Arsenic exposure causes changes in skin color and lesions, and more severe health conditions such as black foot disease as well as ...

Phytochelatins are involved in differential arsenate tolerance in Holcus lanatus [PDF]
, 2001 Arsenate tolerance is conferred by suppression of the high-affinity phosphate/arsenate uptake system, which greatly reduces arsenate influx in a number of higher plant species. Despite this suppressed uptake, arsenate-tolerant plants can still accumulate

CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians, 2001 The toxicity and carcinogenicity of arsenic are well known, but vexing questions remain. The current controversy over the appropriate Federal limit for arsenic in drinking water highlights some of the difficult scientific, ethical, economic, and political issues that complicate standard-setting in occupational and environmental health.

An arsenic metallochaperone for an arsenic detoxification pump [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2006 Environmental arsenic is a world-wide health issue, making it imperative for us to understand mechanisms of metalloid uptake and detoxification. The predominant intracellular form is the highly mephitic arsenite, which is detoxified by removal from cytosol.

Effects of arsenate (As5+) on growth and production of glutathione (GSH) and phytochelatins (PCs) in Chlorella vulgaris [PDF]
, 2011 The effect of arsenate (As5+) on growth and chlorophyll a production in Chlorella vulgaris, its removal by C. vulgaris and the role of glutathione (GSH) and phytochelatins (PCs) were investigated.C. vulgaris was tolerant to As5+ at up to 200 mg/L and was

Arsenate Removal from Aqueous Media Using Chitosan-Magnetite Hydrogel by Batch and Fixed-Bed Columns
Gels, 2022 The removal of arsenate ions from aqueous solutions at near-neutral pH was carried out using chitosan-magnetite (ChM) hydrogel beads in batch systems. Equilibrium isotherms and kinetic studies are reported.

KINETICS OF ARSENITE AND ARSENATE DESORPTION FROM GOETHITE [PDF]
Journal of Soil Sciences and Agricultural Engineering, 2002 Arsenic is a toxin that can occur in the environment as a result of either natural processes or anthropogenic activities. The accumulation of arsenite and arsenate in soils and sediments threatens the health of plants, wildlife, and humans.

Arsenate phytotoxicity regulation by humic acid and related metabolic mechanisms
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021 The use of irrigation water containing arsenic (As) had led to large areas of As-contaminated farmland, and as a result, plants and food have become severely poisoned.
