Reducing lead uptake by plants as a way to lead-free food

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2023
In this research, an attempt was made to produce safe food from lead-contaminated soil. It was assumed that an increased amount of calcium (Ca) in plants would prevent them from lead (Pb) uptake. A new-generation agricultural product − an activator of Ca

open access: yes, 2014
The need to develop a capability to evaluate the environmental effects of chemicals has arisen principally from these situations. The source of the chemical is identified and quantified, as are the distribution, transport and transformation processes whereby the response of individuals in the environment can be evaluated.
