Trace elements and stable isotopes (δ13C and δ15N) in shallow and deep-water organisms from the East China Sea
Kwadwo Ansong Asante,Tetsuro Agusa,Tetsuro Agusa,Hiroko Mochizuki,Karri Ramu,Suguru Inoue,Tsunemi Kubodera,Shin Takahashi,Annamalai Subramanian,Shinsuke Tanabe +9 more
TL;DR: Positive correlations between delta13C and Rb were observed in marine organisms, suggesting that Rb may be a possible substitute of delta 13C as tracer of prey source in the East China Sea although further investigation is required.

Removal of Cr, Ni and Co in the water of chromium mining areas by using Lemna gibba L. and Lemna minor L
TL;DR: In this article, the use of Lemna gibba and Lemna minor plant species to absorb Cr, Ni and Co from Alacakaya mining area water was investigated, and the determined uptake of L. minor were: 196 and 398% for Cr; 307 and 1473% for Ni; and 166 and 223% for Co respectively.

Removal of chromium ions from wastewater by duckweed, Lemna minor L. by using a pilot system with continuous flow.
TL;DR: The aim of this study was to determine the ability of Lemna minor to remove Cr (VI) ions from wastewater in a continuous flow pond system used to simulate a wastewater treatment pond and a natural wetland as habitat of plants.

Chromium occurrence in the environment and methods of its speciation.
J. Kotaś,Z. Stasicka +1 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that knowledge of interconversion processes between different Cr forms is necessary to understand its behaviour and role in the environment, in addition to enabling reliable Cr speciation analysis to be performed.

Phytoremediation of soil metals
TL;DR: Little molecular understanding of plant activities critical to phytoremediation has been achieved, but recent progress in characterizing Fe, Cd and Zn uptake by Arabidopsis and yeast mutants indicates strategies for developing transgenic improved phytOREmediation cultivars for commercial use.
