Nano-phytoremediation: The Successful Combination of Nanotechnology and Phytoremediation
Environmental pollution is a recurrent problem since anthropogenic actions constantly expose the environment to toxic compounds. In view of this fact, many decontamination methodologies have been developed such as thermal treatment, oxidation, ion exchange, and others.

Beneficial Effect Administration of Vitamin C in Amelioration of Lead Hepatotoxicity
Previous human and experimental studies have demonstrated that lead exposure may modify the metabolism of lipid. Oxidative stress with subsequent lipid peroxidation has been postulated as one mechanism for lead toxicity. The protective action of vitamins
