A pot study was used to examine the effects of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) on the growth potential, uptake, and mobilization of Cr by Watercress (Nasturtium officinale) in contaminated water at different concentration levels of the chelating agent EDTA (0, 10-5, and 10-4 M) and four concentration levels of Cr (0, 1, 3, and 10 mgL-1). The EDTA resulted in more solubilization of Cr in water. The application of EDTA 15 d prior to harvest increased the amount of Cr accumulated in watercress with more Cr accumulated by the plants from the media. Nasturtium officinale accumulated high Cr concentration (317 mgkg -1 ) in the root at a concentration of 10 mgL -1 Cr 3+ and 10 4- M EDTA after 15 d growth. The application of EDTA had inhibitory effects on the root and shoot dry biomass compared with that in the

The total heavy metal (chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), and lead (Pb)) present in the muscle tissue of sardine was determined by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectroscopy (ICP-MS) after microwave wet digestion during the winter season of 2010. The mean concentrations of heavy metals in the sardine muscle tissues was 0.21 mg Cr/kg, 1.00 mg Cu/kg, 1.49 mg As/ kg, 0.46 mg Cd/kg, 0.03 mg Hg/kg, and 0.14 mg Pb/kg wet weight. It was found that the cadmium concentrations in the sardine fish samples provided from four fish markets with the exception of one fish market, exceeded the value of 0.05 mg Cd/kg (wet weight) limit which is permitted nationally and internationally. The level of arsenic for one of each group of sardines sampled was higher than the permitted limit of arsenic according to the Australia Food Standard (1.00 mg As/kg). As a result, the comprehensive and periodic controls of heavy metals in fish are important in terms of public and environmental health.

In this study, ammonium (NH4+) removal from aqueous media was investigated by using bentonit clay. Different concentrations of ammonium ion adsorption from aqueous solutions were examined at a room temperature. Adsorption data were applied to Langmuir and Freundlich models. In addition, the experimental results of adsorption applied to thermodynamic equations of free enthalpy of adsorption process, enthalpy and entropy values were found. Thus, whether voluntary and adsorption effects of temperature on adsorption or not was investigated. In addition, raw and treated clay ammonium (NH4+- bentonite) characterization of samples were established by using thermal analysis and infrared (IR) techniques.

The heavy metal accumulation capacity of M. verticillatum in a hydroponic system was investigated in this study. M. verticillatum was grown in a model aquatic setup consisting of aeration, lighting, and hydroponic systems for 21 days in different kinds and concentrations of heavy metal solutions prepared in a Hoagland E- Medium. Any visual changes observed in individual M. verticillatum plants at the onset and end of the study were noted daily. At the end of the experiments, the heavy metal concentrations in the plant biomass were determined. M. verticillatum tolerated the heavy metal ions very well and was also able to grow within the studied concentration range. The heavy metal accumulation followed the order of Pb+2> Cu+2 > Cd+2 > Zn+2 in all mixed and individual aqueous solutions. However, M. verticillatum accumulated a large amount of Pb+2 ions, but new shoots also continued to grow. This may be an indicator that M. verticillatum may be a hyperaccumulator for Pb +2 ions. M. verticillatum also exhibited proton secretion during the metal

Abstract Traditional water quality evaluation methods use discrete form that involve upper and lower limits, and the concentrations values are equally important when the values are near to or far away from the limits. Moreover, each quality parameter might belong to one of the four classes; therefore differences of the classes of the parameters may be vagueness. In this study, an index model is purposed for quality evaluation of water quality classification using fuzzy logic. For that purpose, a data set (12 months, total 180 measurements) about several heavy metals such as Copper (Cu), Zinc (Zn), Manganese (Mn), Lead (Pb), Nickel (Ni), Cadmium (Cd) and Iron (Fe) was collected from 5 monitoring stations in Karasu River. After that, fuzzy logic assessment method was used to quality evaluation for heavy metal pollution in Karasu stream. In conclusion, it was supposed that fuzzy logic evaluation method may also be used as an alternative tool for decision-making in environmental management.

This study was conducted to determine some heavy metal concentrations of eggs obtained from Van lake territory. Samples of hen egg were collected from 27 farms distributed in Van province, Turkey to analyze the contents of Zn, Cu, Cd, Mn, and Ni in albumen and yolk with Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). The average concentrations of heavy metals were found as follows: Zn: 35.6 ppm and 42.2 ppm in yolk, 4.3 ppm and 7.4 ppm in albumen; Cu: 2.7 ppm and 10.5 ppm in yolk, 7.0 ppm and 1.5 ppm in albumen; Cd: 0.34 ppm and 1.24 ppm in yolk, 0.31 ppm and 1.25 ppm in albumen; Mn: 1.9 ppm and 6.8 ppm in yolk, 2.0 ppm and 4.5 ppm in albumen; Ni: 1.7 ppm and 3.1 ppm in yolk, 2.8 ppm and 3.7 ppm in albumen respectively. The calculated amounts of Cd in hen egg suggest that the eggs are safe in terms of four metals when compared with WHO-FAO provisional tolerated amount. Eggs are rich sources of Zn, Cu, Mn, and Ni generally.

Investigation of Heavy Metal Levels in Sediment of the Berdan River (Tarsus- Mersin) Abstract In the study, samples were seasonally taken from Berdan River- which is one of the major rivers in the province of Mersin -and accumulation levels of heavy metals such as Cadmium (Cd), Chromium (Cr), Manganese (Mn), Nickel (Ni), Zinc (Zn), Copper (Cu), Lead (Pb), Iron (Fe) and Aluminum (Al) were determined in sediment samples According to results of the study, heavy metal accumulation levels in the sediment Fe; 18521.91 μg/g, Al;12907.70 μg/g, Mn; 377.40 μg/g, Ni; 167.68 μg/g, Cr; 57.81 μg/g, Zn; 45.59 μg/g, Cu; 28.38 μg/g, Pb; 22.82 μg/g and Cd; 4.54 μg/g were fasten down and heavy metals were in the sequence as follows: Fe>Al>Mn>Ni>Cr>Zn>Cu>Pb>Cd. Finally, it has been observed that Berdan River is under the threat of pollution.

This study examined the characteristics and dyeing fastness of sheep skins that had been tanned with two different vegetal tannins: hydrolysable tara and condensed quebracho tannins. After tanning, chitosan formate was applied to the leathers in four different proportions. The dye exhaustion and tensile strengths of the leathers increased as the proportion of chitosan formate increased, and the highest levels of both dye exhaustion and tensile strength were obtained in an application at a proportion of 200% on the basis of leather weight. Leathers treated with chitosan formate had slightly higher tensile strength values than the control leathers. In addition, chitosan formate was found to improve waste water parameters such as chemical oxygen demand, total suspended solids, total dissolved solids, salinity, and electrical conductivity.

Examination of the Level of Bacteriological Pollution in the Discharge Area of the Ayamama Stream to the Marmara Sea Abstract In this study seawater samples were taken from Ayamama stream's discharge point and from around of its six different areas every 15 days, and were examined in terms of bacteria such as faecal coliform, total coliform, faecal streptococci, Salmonella spp. and total mezophilic aerobic heterotrophic bacteria from May 2007 to April 2008. It is found that in all of the seven areas from which samples were taken, bacteria counts found are over seawater quality standards. It is found that the area in the best condition is station 6 which is far away 1 km from discharge point and the worst one is station 1 which is discharge point of the Ayamama stream to Marmara sea. Also, it is determined that the number of indicator bacteria show difference depending on months and seasons. Furthermore, a hierarchical ascendant cluster analysis was used to classify the sampling stations into similar groups. Dendograms obtained from cluster analysis has revealed that stations which are far away 500 m discharge point, in front of Air Force Academy (Yesilkoy), an four-star hotel and Yesilyurt sports club were similar at the first level in terms of t
