Journal ArticleDOI

Lead detoxification by coontail (Ceratophyllum demersum L.) involves induction of phytochelatins and antioxidant system in response to its accumulation.

TL;DR: Results suggest that plants responded positively to moderate Pb concentrations and accumulated high amount of metal, due to metal accumulation coupled with detoxification potential, the plant appears to have potential for its use as phytoremediator species in aquatic environments having moderate pollution of Pb.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genotoxicity of cadmium on root meristem cells of Allium cepa: cytogenetic and Comet assay approach.

TL;DR: Findings of this study confirms the root meristem cells of A. cepa are suitable model for detecting both the environmentally induced CA as well as DNA damage analyzed by Comet assay.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of phytochelatins and antioxidants in tolerance to Cd accumulation in Brassica juncea L.

TL;DR: The capacity of B. juncea to accumulate and tolerate high concentrations of Cd, through enhanced level of PCs, GSH, NP-SH and GR suggests its applicability for phytoremediation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Toxic effect of arsenate and cadmium alone and in combination on giant duckweed (Spirodela polyrrhiza L.) in response to its accumulation

TL;DR: It was concluded that due to high metal accumulation coupled with defense potential, the plant appears to have a potential for its use as phytoremediator species of aquatic environments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sorption kinetics and leachability of heavy metal from the contaminated soil amended with immobilizing agent (humus soil and hydroxyapatite).

TL;DR: The kinetics of sorption ofheavy metals on the non-humus soil amended with (1:3) humus soil and 1% hydroxyapatite used for in situ immobilization and leachability of heavy metals from these soils suggested the possibility of immobilization of Pb due to sorption process and immobilizationof Zn and Cd by other processes like co-precipitation and ion exchange.
