An incubation greenhouse study was conducted to determine the efficiency of vetiver grass in lead phytoremediation. The objectives of this…
Effective phytoremediation depends on factors such as soil chemistry, soil watering holding capacity, lead concentrations, plant species, and lead bioavailability.…
After six months of planting, EDDS and EDTA amendments were added at 3 different rates 0,10,15 mM/kg. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA)…
Biochemical mechanisms are also used to suppress the phytotoxic effects of heavy metals. A common mechanism is phytochelatins (PC) which…
The bioavailability of lead in the soil is a determining factor for human health risk and exposure. The word bioaccessibility…
