Heavy metal contamination of the Nigerian environment from e-waste management: A systematic review of exposure pathway and attendant pathophysiological implications
Nigerian environment has become a depository of worrisome levels of toxicants including heavy metals. Electrical and electronic equipment which leads to the generation of e-waste is one of the considerable sources of environmental contaminants in Nigeria. This systematic review deployed Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) method to analyze various empirical and quantitative outputs on heavy metal components of e-waste management sites in Nigeria and investigated the distribution of heavy metals in several environmental matrices such as soil, water, surface dust, plant and blood of e-waste scavengers. Also, the probable environmental multi-transformation that ultimately potentiates the susceptibility of humans to the pathophysiological effects and genetic related disorders of exposure to heavy metal component of e-waste was discussed. The relative abundance of metals in soils due to inappropriate e-waste handling is given as follow: Fe>Cu>Pb>Zn>Mn>Co>Cr>Ni>As>Cd, in underground and surface water: Zn>Fe>Cu>Cr>Mn>Pb>Hg>Ni>Co>Cd>As; in surface dusts: Fe>Zn>Pb>Cu>Mn>Cr>Ni>Cd>Co; in plants: Pb>Cu>Mn>Zn>Ni>Cr>Cd obtained from the Nigerian environment. Moreso, the estimated abundance of heavy metals in the blood of e-waste scavengers is Nigeria is given as Cr>Cd>Hg>Zn>As>Pb>Cu>Mn>Fe. Conclusively, this study does not only show that various matrices of Nigerian environment is contaminated with heavy metal but also that the pattern of abundance differ in the environment and in biological systems with the latter having the abundance of Pb, Cr and Cd and the former having the abundance of Cu, Zn and Fe.
期刊介绍:
Toxicology is an international, peer-reviewed journal that publishes only the highest quality original scientific research and critical reviews describing hypothesis-based investigations into mechanisms of toxicity associated with exposures to xenobiotic chemicals, particularly as it relates to human health. In this respect "mechanisms" is defined on both the macro (e.g. physiological, biological, kinetic, species, sex, etc.) and molecular (genomic, transcriptomic, metabolic, etc.) scale. Emphasis is placed on findings that identify novel hazards and that can be extrapolated to exposures and mechanisms that are relevant to estimating human risk. Toxicology also publishes brief communications, personal commentaries and opinion articles, as well as concise expert reviews on contemporary topics. All research and review articles published in Toxicology are subject to rigorous peer review. Authors are asked to contact the Editor-in-Chief prior to submitting review articles or commentaries for consideration for publication in Toxicology.
