Risk assessment of iodine intake from the consumption of red seaweeds (Palmaria palmata and Chondrus crispus).
Abstract
Seaweeds are a basic food in the Asian diet. The search for functional and healthy foods has increased the seaweed consumption in Europe and the USA. Seaweeds are a source of essential elements such as iodine. However, high intake levels of iodine can cause damages to human health. Red seaweeds like dulse (Palmaria palmata) and Irish moss (Chondrus crispus) are common in shops and large stores. The iodine level in 30 samples of red seaweeds (dulse and Irish moss) has been determined by redox volumetry with sodium thiosulfate to determine the iodine content of both species and to assess the iodine dietary ...

Utilization of dye-loaded activated carbon as a potential alternative fuel source: a feasibility study through calorific and thermo-gravimetric analysis.
Abstract
The disodium salt of Rose Bengal [4, 5, 6, 7-tetrachloro-2', 4', 5', 7'-tetraiodofluorescein] commonly finds application in medical procedures and its removal from aqueous solution is difficult owing to its high molecular weight of 1017.67 g/mol. Activated carbon was prepared from Prosopis juliflora and immobilized into sodium alginate beads and doped with aniline for enhanced adsorption of Rose Bengal. The effect of initial dye concentration, beads' dosage, contact time, and the temperature over the adsorption of Rose Bengal dye were studied. The optimum conditions derived for maximum dye uptake capacit...

Therapeutic effects of royal jelly against sodium benzoate-induced toxicity: cytotoxic, genotoxic, and biochemical assessment
In this study, the protective role of royal jelly (RJ) against the potential toxic effects of sodium benzoate was investigated in Allium cepa L. test material with physiological, genetic, and biochemical parameters. Physiological changes were evaluated by determining weight gain, rooting percentage, root length, and relative injury rate. The genetic evaluations were carried out with chromosomal abnormalities (CAs), micronucleus (MN), tail DNA formation, and mitotic index (MI) ratio parameters. The biochemical evaluations were carried out by determining lipid peroxidation and antioxidant enzyme activities by determining lev...

Flue gas desulfurization (FGD) steel slag ameliorates salinity, sodicity, and adverse physical properties of saline-sodic soil of middle Yellow River, China
In this study, a large-scale field experiment of applying FGD steel slag as a new amendment of saline-sodic soils was conducted in the middle Yellow River, Inner Mongolia, China. The FGD steel slag was applied at a rate of 180 t/ha in 2015, 2016, and 2018, respectively. After FGD steel slag application for 1, 3, and 4 years, the soil samples were collected. The saline-sodic field without FGD steel slag amendment was used as the control treatment (CK). Compared with control, the application of FGD steel slag significantly (p < 0.05) decreased soil pH, electric conductivity (EC), salt content, sodium adsorption ratio (SAR...

Laboratory observations for two-dimensional solute transport in an aquifer-aquitard system
In this study, two-dimensional experiments of groundwater flow and solute transport were conducted in a clay-sand two-layer system to investigate the characteristics of flow and transport in such a system. Sodium chloride (NaCl) (a conservative tracer) from a tank was injected after passing by the pre-inlet reservoir where the mixing effect and flow transiency were analyzed. A new numerical model considering the mixing effect and flow transiency was developed to interpret the experimental data based on the finite-element COMSOL Multiphysics platform. Transport parameters were assessed by best fitting the observed breakthro...

Menadione sodium bisulfite alleviated chromium effects on wheat by regulating oxidative defense, chromium speciation, and ion homeostasis
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2021 Mar 9. doi: 10.1007/s11356-021-13221-0. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMenadione sodium bisulfite (MSB) is a crucial growth regulator mediating plant defense response. MSB-mediated regulation of defense mechanisms in wheat under chromium (Cr) toxicity has not been reported in the literature. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to appraise the efficacy of exogenous MSB on circumventing Cr phytotoxic effects on wheat. We also compared the effects of water-soluble MSB with that of water-insoluble menadiol diacetate (MD). The levels used in the present investigation for MSB and MD were 1...
