Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of metal sorption by biochars: Biochar characteristics and modifications
Hong-Bo Li,Xiaoling Dong,Evandro B. da Silva,Letuzia M. de Oliveira,Yanshan Chen,Lena Q. Ma,Lena Q. Ma +6 more
TL;DR: This review summarizes the characteristics of biochar (e.g., surface area, porosity, pH, surface charge, functional groups, and mineral components) and main mechanisms governing sorption of As, Cr, Cd, Pb, and Hg by biochar and includes competitive sorption mechanisms of co-existing metals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons: Metabolomics perspective.
TL;DR: The biomarkers, analytical techniques including nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometry, big data multivariate statistical analysis, and animal models used to better understand the biological effects of PAHs, PAH-derivatives, and their metabolites and biotransformation products on humans are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
PAHs in urban soils of two Florida cities: Background concentrations, distribution, and sources.
Yungen Liu,Peng Gao,Jing Su,Evandro B. da Silva,Letuzia M. de Oliveira,Timothy G. Townsend,Ping Xiang,Lena Q. Ma,Lena Q. Ma +8 more
TL;DR: The results showed that soils were dominated by high molecular weight PAHs in both cities, mainly from pyrogenic sources including vehicle emissions, and biomass and coal combustion and based on ArcGIS mapping, PAH concentrations in soils near business districts and high traffic roads were higher.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metal concentrations in traditional and herbal teas and their potential risks to human health.
Letuzia M. de Oliveira,Suchismita Das,Evandro B. da Silva,Peng Gao,Julia Gress,Yungen Liu,Lena Q. Ma,Lena Q. Ma +7 more
TL;DR: The data showed that it is important to consider metal intake from tea consumptions, especially for Cr and Al in heavy tea drinkers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arsenic removal by As-hyperaccumulator Pteris vittata from two contaminated soils: A 5-year study
Evandro B. da Silva,Evandro B. da Silva,Jason T. Lessl,Ann C. Wilkie,Xue Liu,Yungen Liu,Lena Q. Ma,Lena Q. Ma +7 more
TL;DR: Data indicated that P. vittata efficiently solubilized non-labile As under P-limiting conditions without impacting its As depletion, and arsenic from all fractions, excluding the residual fraction, was affected by plant uptake.
