(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) There is heightening concern regarding heavy metals environmental pollution requiring renewed global attention because of their bioaccumulation and toxicity at varying levels. The concern is most important in the highly migratory Eidolon helvum (E. helvum) that is very common and traverses wide geographical areas within the sub-Saharan Africa. The present study aimed to evaluate levels of cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn) bioaccumulation in 24 E. helvum of both sexes from Nigeria to assess their indirect health risks to the human consumer

The per cent removal capacity of Cr(VI) by AVP12 and NC7401 strains was analyzed as a function of environmental factors including pH, incubation time and biosorbate concentration.

The bioaccumulation of organic contaminants in the Lake Erie food web is reviewed in context of the numerous changes experienced by the system. In the late 1960s, internal lake processes, related to the eutrophic status of the lake, minimized contaminant bioaccumulation despite high contaminant loadings. From the 1970s to 1980s contaminant concentrations decreased at different rates in many species of different trophic levels, coincident with decreased loadings to the lake. Since the early 1980s contaminant concentrations in biota have not changed consistently. Several factors have been propos

Abstract:

This paper describes results of experiment on bioaccumulation and uptake rate of radiocesium 137Cs from dissolved phase in the flesh of the Oysters (Crassostrea glomerata) collected off Karachi coast. A radiotracer experiment was conducted under laboratory conditions to determine the uptake rate and bioaccumulation of 137Cs from dissolved phase in the flesh of the Oysters. Oysters (size: 6â€“7 cm) were subjected to radiocesium activity of 24 Kilobecquerel per liter (kBq L-1) under three salinity levels (25, 30 and 35 ppt). The uptake of 137Cs was monitored for a period of seven days. The resul

Carbonatogenic bacteria are able to produce calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Steel reinforcement of concrete is mainly made of a mixture of carbon (C) and ferrous (Fe) elements. Fe is classified as heavy metal, when in high concentrations it is toxic to bacteria. The purpose of this study was to determine the bioaccumulation of carbonatogenic bacteria to Fe. The isolates used in this study were Bacillus JA1, Sporosarcina JA4, and Lysinibacillus JB2. All isolates were subcultured on nutrient agar slant media. Cultures were made on minimal salt medium: nutrient broth (95% : 5%) with 24 hours incubatio

Abstract:

The bioaccumulation of mercury in the food webs incorporating the major piscivorous fish species of Lake Murray, Papua New Guinea, has been characterised. Methylmercury concentrations increased with trophic level and the proportion of total mercury present as methylmercury increased from <1% in plants to 94% in piscivorous fish. Methylmercury bioaccumulation factors (BAFs) were similar to those found in temperate environments, with a typical increase of 1 log unit between planktivore and piscivore trophic levels. The greatest bioaccumulation of methylmercury occurred between seston and the

Since perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAs) are widely used and harmless to organisms, they have attracted great attention in recent years. The distribution of PFAs in the oceans all around the world is well documented. However, the study of PFAs in Xiamen could be a beneficial complement, for its unique geologies of no rivers that originate from other cities to influence the concentration of PFAs in this area. In this paper, six PFAs were analyzed in water, sediments, and organisms from both freshwater and seawater and the bioaccumulation factors (BAFs) were calculated with the quantity of PFAs in diff

Including a multi-year collection of samples (2004–2011) the present research fills 20 years of an information gap regarding the PCB burden in south-west Atlantic franciscana dolphins (Pontoporia blainvillei) while aiming to test the null hypothesis that PCBs congeners are increasingly bioaccumulating in south-west Atlantic specimens in relation to northern hemisphere records. In addition, the present survey analyses indicators of potential biological impairment associated to PCBs tissue burden.

Abstract:

Chronic exposure of the freshwater fish Rasbora daniconius to a sub-lethal concentration of the Poly Chlorinated Biphenyl Congener No. 169 for a continued period of 30 days showed its bioaccumulation in the fish tissues. Collection of samples of some tissues, viz. the gills, kidney, intestine and liver, on every 5th day of exposure, has provided the data for a comparative study of the extent of bioaccumulation in them. Maximum bioaccumulation is seen in the gills, while the least in the liver of the fish.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTNoroviruses (NoVs) are the main agents of gastroenteritis in humans and the primary pathogens of shellfish-related outbreaks. Some NoV strains bind to shellfish tissues by using carbohydrate structures similar to their human ligands, leading to the hypothesis that such ligands may influence bioaccumulation. This study compares the bioaccumulation efficiencies and tissue distributions in oysters (Crassostrea gigas) of three strains from the two principal human norovirus genogroups. Clear differences between strains were observed. The GI.1 strain was the most efficiently concentrated str

For bluegill, lipid normalized concentrations of PCB congeners of log Kow < 6.8 did not demonstrate any significant increases across individuals 2–5 years of age. In similarly aged cisco, however, significant age-related increases in lipid normalized PCB concentrations were observed for the majority of these congeners. For PCBs of log Kow > 6.8, these congeners demonstrated significant a
