The review deals with the environmental problem caused by low or moderate nickel
concentrations in soils. The main effects of this potentially toxic element on the soil biota and …

Earthworms are important soil organisms that affect the soil structure by influencing organic
and inorganic matter breakdown. Earthworms are in permanent contact with soil particles via …

The rapid reductive immobilization of Cr (VI) from the aqueous solution was achieved by
reduction to Cr (III) using tannic acid (TA), and subsequent pH-triggering precipitation of the …

It is difficult to completely remove Cr (III) from tannery effluent by alkaline precipitation due to
the abundance of strong organic ligands. Thereby, the speciation of the residual Cr after …

In this study, the artificial soil poisoning method was used to explore the antioxidative stress
mechanism and gene changes of earthworms (Eisenia foetida) after application of …

Various organic compounds extensively used in the leather industry could influence the
performance of alkaline precipitation with Cr (III). This study focused on two typical Cr (III) …

The toxic sensitivity in different physiological levels of chromium (Cr) contaminated soils with
environmentally equivalent concentrations (EEC) was fully unknown. The earthworm …

Diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP), as a plasticizer, is widely used and has caused many extreme
soil contamination scenarios, posing potential risks to soil fauna. However, the toxic effects …

Red mud (RM) is a byproduct of aluminum production; worldwide between 70 and 120
million tons is produced annually. We analyzed RM which was released in the course of the …

QYR301, a novel herbicidal inhibitor of 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD), has
great potential for resistant weed control in paddy fields, but massive use of pesticides may …
