Heavy Metal Contamination: Impacts From Plants to the Food Chain and Eco‐Friendly Amelioration Strategies

AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.
Heavy metal pollution reduces soil health and threatens food safety by entering plants; however, the use of nanoparticles, biofertilizers, and organic fertilizers such as biochar offers a promising strategy for improvement and sustainable agriculture. ABSTRACT Heavy metal (HM) pollution, resulting from human activities such as mining and the excessive ...

Tannic Acid Mitigates Monosodium Glutamate‐Induced Cortical Damage by Modulating Synaptic and Calcium‐Related Gene and Protein Expression

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neurotoxicity induced by excessive glutamatergic signaling is associated with synaptic dysfunction, calcium imbalance, and oxidative stress, which are key molecular events implicated in several neurodegenerative conditions. Monosodium glutamate (MSG), a common flavor enhancer, may exert neurotoxic effects, particularly on synaptic integrity ...

Food Security Versus Environmental Health: The Nitrogen Dilemma

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nitrogen is an essential element for plant growth and, consequently, crop production. However, the cycling of nitrogen in the environment can have negative effects. Here, we review the historical development of scientific and public awareness of these effects and the influence this has had on political action to control them.
