Organically complexed iron enhances bioavailability of antimony to maize (Zea mays) seedlings in organic soils
Antimony (Sb) is a metalloid belonging to group 15 of the periodic table. Chemical similarities between arsenic (As) and Sb produce concerns about potential health effects of Sb and enrichment in the environment. Antimony is found in oxic environments predominately as an oxyanionic species, antimonite (Sb[OH]6–). As a result of its net negative charge, Sb[OH]6– was not initially predicted to ...

Uptake and translocation of lead and pyrene by ryegrass cultivated in aged spiked soil
A greenhouse study was conducted to investigate the uptake and translocation of lead and pyrene in ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum L), cultivated in spiked soil. After ageing, the pots were cultivated with ryegrass seedlings to investigate soil-to-plant transfer characteristics of lead and pyrene. In the spiked soils, the biomass of plants was not significantly lower in comparison with the control, ...
