Health Effects of Natural Dust: Role of Trace Elements and Compounds

Biological Trace Element Research, 2005
This article reviews the health effects of trace elements carried in natural dusts of geologic or geochemical origin. The sources of these dusts are diverse, including volcanoes, dust storms, long-range transport of desert dust, and displacement through natural processes such as landslides and earthquakes.

Semi-volatile organic compounds and trace elements in the Yangtze River source of drinking water

Ecotoxicology, 2009
Determination of 24 semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) and 24 trace elements in water samples was conducted in order to investigate the quality of the Nanjing source of drinking water taken from Yangtze River. The total concentrations of SVOCs and trace elements were in the range of 1,951-11,098 ng/l and 51,274-72,384 microg/l, respectively.

Toxic trace elements and organic compounds in the ambient air of Kabul, Afghanistan

Atmospheric Environment, 2006
Abstract To assess the ambient air quality in Kabul, we measured the contents in tree bark samples of 17 chemical elements by ICP–MS, polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and furans (PCDD/Fs) by GC–MS, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) by GC–ECD and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) by HPLC. While there were rather high levels of sulfur (up to 2277

Anthropogenic pressure in a Portuguese river: Endocrine-disrupting compounds, trace elements and nutrients

Journal of Environmental Science and Health - Part A Toxic/Hazardous Substances and Environmental Engineering, 2016
Natural organic compounds such as phytoestrogens and phytosterols found in various plants, as well as mycotoxins produced by fungi, can be found in aquatic environments. The aim of this study was to investigate the occurrence of three different classes of natural estrogenic compounds, i.e., phytoestrogens, phytosterols and mycotoxins, in estuarine ...

Phytoremediation of sewage sludge contaminated by trace elements and organic compounds

Environmental Research, 2018
Phytoremediation is a green technique being increasingly used worldwide for various purposes including the treatment of municipal sewage sludge (MSS). Most plants proposed for this technique have high nutrient demands, and fertilization is often required to maintain soil fertility and nutrient balance while remediating the substrate.

Grain Boundaries, Trace Elements, and Fracture of Intermetallic Compounds

MRS Proceedings, 1994
Even though single crystals of Ni{sub 3}Al are quite ductile when tested in ambient conditions, polycrystalline material is very brittle due to grain boundary failure. The tendency for grain boundary failure is greatly exacerbated by atmospheric water vapor.
