Toxic and essential elements in Lebanese cheese

Food Additives and Contaminants: Part B, 2012
Concentrations of 20 minor, trace and ultratrace elements relevant to human health (Ag, Al, As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Hg, Li, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, Sb, Se, Si, Sn, V) were determined in four different varieties of the most consumed cheese in Lebanon (Halloumi, Double Crème, Baladi, Labneh) sampled at five different provinces (Grand Beirut, South of Lebanon ...

Toxic trace elements at gastrointestinal level

Food and Chemical Toxicology, 2015
Many trace elements are considered essential [iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), copper (Cu)], whereas others may be harmful [lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), arsenic (As)], depending on their concentration and chemical form. In most cases, the diet is the main pathway by which they enter our organism.

Toxicity of Other Elements

1987
The characteristic features of several elements will be reviewed in this chapter. Each of these elements has its own unique properties, the differences among them being much greater than those found among the heavy metals treated in the previous chapter.

The role of selenium in cadmium toxicity: interactions with essential and toxic elements

British Poultry Science, 2012
1. The study was part of a project designed to investigate if organic selenium (Se) can ameliorate the toxic effects of cadmium (Cd). The main objective of the present study was to investigate, in the chicken, the interactions between Se, Cd and the following elements: Sb, Ca, Cr, Co, Cu, Fe, Pb, Mg, Mn, Mo, Ni, V and Zn. 2.

Phytoremediation of toxic elemental and organic pollutants

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2000
Phytoremediation is the use of plants to extract, sequester, and/or detoxify pollutants. Phytoremediation is widely viewed as the ecologically responsible alternative to the environmentally destructive physical remediation methods currently practiced.

Biological Cycles for Toxic Elements in the Environment

Science, 1974
Some of the chemical and biochemical transformations of toxic elements in the environment are discussed with special emphasis on the role played by microorganisms. When confronted with a toxic substance, microorganisms frequently adapt to detoxify it. However, the detoxification of a substance by microorganisms can yield a product that is either more ...

A Survey of the Acute Toxicity of Elemental Fluorine

American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal, 1970
This paper reviews past and recent experiments which have greatly expanded the body of pathotoxicological knowledge on elemental fluorine. The physiochemistry of fluorine reactions with animal proteins and lipids was considered. Toxicity data on short-term animal exposures were compiled, normalized, and correlated with human data.

Elements with More Toxic Effects

2001
There is no clear division between elements which are toxic to plants and those which have a beneficial or even essential effect. The effect of any element on the plant depends not only on its chemical properties but also on its concentration and the presence and concentrations of other elements.
