The presence of heavy metals (HMs) in the soil can pose risks to human health via ingestion
and dermal absorption. This systematic review and meta-analysis study focused on both of …

The assessment of heavy metal (oid) concentrations in agricultural soil holds significant
importance due to its impact on crop safety and quality, as well as the potential risks it poses …

In this study, 103 water, agricultural soil, and crops irrigated with wastewater or tube-well
water were collected, and their heavy metal content was evaluated using inductively …

Chromium (Cr) compounds are usually toxins and exist abundantly in two different forms, Cr
(VI) and Cr (III), in nature. Their contamination in any environment is a major problem. Many …

The pollution of Iranian agricultural soils with trace elements (Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb,
and Zn) was assessed and compared with other agricultural soils around the world …

Soil geochemical data is compositional. Hence the studies targeting the potential of
accumulation of toxic elements (TE) in plants have to consider the compositional nature of …

This study addressed micronutrients (Fe, Zn, Cu, Mn, Co) and heavy metals (As, Pb) in the
soil and rice crop in Khuzestan Province, Iran. Twenty-eight composite soil and grain …

Dermal contact, ingestion and inhalation of heavy metal poses significant health risk in
human subjects. The exposure could be via potable water, soil or air. The current …

Understanding the processes of mobility and availability of potentially toxic elements in soil
is crucial for informed decision-making in the development of public policies aimed at …

Enhanced soil's magnetic susceptibility reflects particles of anthropogenic/natural origin;
therefore, it can be utilized as an indication of soil contamination. A total of 51 different land …
