Arsenic [PDF]

open access: yes
This month we will feature a series of newsletters on three toxic metals: arsenic, lead, and mercury. These metals occur naturally, but past and present human activities have led to persistent environmental contamination.

Elevated lactate dehydrogenase activity and increased cardiovascular mortality in the arsenic-endemic areas of southwestern Taiwan

open access: yes, 2014
Arsenic ingestion has been linked to increasing global prevalence of and mortality from cardiovascular disease (CVD); arsenic can be removed from drinking water to reduce related health effects.

Updated facility‐level inventory and LCIA of the public electricity grid in Ontario, Canada

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract As the composition of Ontario's electricity grid will change over time, it is important to have a comprehensive understanding of the environmental impacts of Ontario's electricity grid as it stands today. However, publicly available information on impacts of Ontario's electricity grid is available only in aggregate from government sources.

Analysis of Arsenic Speciation Distribution in Agaric, Shiitake Mushroom, Matsutake and Agrocybe by IC-ICP-MS Method

open access: yesShipin gongye ke-ji
To analyze the speciation distribution of arsenic in agaric, shiitake mushroom, matsutake and agrocybe, the ion chromatography-inductive coupled plasma mass spectrometer (IC-ICP-MS) was used to determine arsenobetaine, dimethyl arsenic, arsenous acid ...

Arsenic Carcinogenesis in the Skin

open access: yes, 2008
Chronic arsenic poisoning is a world public health issue. Long-term exposure to inorganic arsenic (As) from drinking water has been documented to induce cancers in lung, urinary bladder, kidney, liver and skin in a dose-response relationship.

Polymorphisms of human 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1 and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine increase susceptibility to arsenic methylation capacity-related urothelial carcinoma

open access: yes, 2017
Arsenic causes oxidative stress in cultured animal and human cells, and it is a well-documented human carcinogen. We conducted a hospital-based case-control study including 167 cases of urothelial carcinoma (UC) and 334 age- and gender-matched healthy ...

Critical mineral removal from mining‐impacted waters using microalgal biomass

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Rising demand for critical minerals has led to increased mining and mineral processing activities, resulting in the release of metal‐contaminated waters requiring treatment. Conventional treatment methods, such as lime neutralization, effectively precipitate metals; however, they are less effective at low metal concentrations and produce large

Can Rural Communities Comply with the New Arsenic Standard for Drinking Water? [PDF]

open access: yes
Our primary concern in this paper is to determine to what extent small communities have difficulty meeting the new stricter 2001 standard for arsenic levels in their drinking water. To do this we survey water users in rural Minnesota communities that had

Steady-state groundwater arsenic concentrations in reducing aquifers

open access: yes, 2018
Arsenic is a common soil and groundwater contaminant in much of the world. Groundwater arsenic is commonly derived from the reductive dissolution of arsenic-bearing iron oxides.
