Interactions of rare earth elements with living organisms and emerging biotechnical applications
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 5, Page 1251-1274, September 2025.Rare earth elements (REEs) are critical resources required to achieve net‐zero carbon emission targets and energy security. However, rising demand for REEs coupled with significant extraction and processing challenges and geopolitical risks restricts access to REE resources.

Analysis of Mercury-Rich plants and mine tailings using the Hydride-Generation AAS method
Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2009 A hydride-generation atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) method was developed for the analysis of total Hg in liquid matrices of mercury-rich plants and mine tailings samples. The detection limit for this method was as low as 11.4 ng/mL.

Plant growth regulators-assisted phytoextraction
Biologia plantarum, 2014 Plant growth regulators (PRG)-assisted phytoremediation is a technique that could enhance the yield of heavy metal accumulation in plant tissues. So far, a small number of experiments have helped identify three groups of plant hormones that may be useful for this purpose: auxins, cytokinins, and gibberellins.

Remediation Journal, Volume 36, Issue 1, Winter 2025.ABSTRACT Vanadium (V) is a re‐emerging environmental contaminant due to its high mobility and potential toxicity in soil and water systems. This study examined the stability of immobilized V in soils amended with biochar (BC, 5% w/w), and biochar combined with iron (BCFe), aluminum (BCAl), or titanium (BCTi) oxide nanoparticles (1% w/w), under ...

Caspian Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2015 One of the major problems about the chelant-enhanced phytoextraction is the potential metal leaching associated with chelant application. A glasshouse pot experiment was conducted to investigate phytoextraction efficiency of common reed (Phragmites ...

Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica. Section B, Soil and Plant Science, 2019 Soil is an element of crop cultivation that demands consistent fertilisation to compensate for the nutrients that are removed by the harvest. Changes in soil because of prolonged fertilisation can only be estimated by long-term field trials.

Physiological Effect of Thallium in the Facultative Hyperaccumulator Silene latifolia
Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 177, Issue 5, September/October 2025.ABSTRACT The metallicolous populations of the facultative Tl hyperaccumulator Silene latifolia are extraordinarily tolerant and capable of accumulating up to 80,000 μg Tl g−1 in nature. A growth stimulatory effect of Tl was observed, and this study set out to determine possible mechanisms.
