“…Here, in situ water hyacinth was used to evaluate and remediate mercury contaminated waters from a chloralkali plant. Since certain species of plant have been shown to accumulate higher concentrations of metals than others, plants have also played a large role in bioremediation efforts [34]. Bioremediationphytoremediation projects exploit the ability of plants to assimilate metals in concentrations higher than their metabolic requirements.…”

The ability of plants to hyper-accumulate metals and metalloids from the surrounding environment may pose a significant health risk to both humans and animals since plants form a substantial component of diet. This attribute, however, has also been identified as a useful tool in bioremediation and biomonitoring studies; where assimilated metal(loid)s in plants often correlate to environmental exposure. Since the bioavailability and toxicity of these elements depends upon their chemical form, speciation studies are essential in determining mobility and metabolic pathways. This can be done in a number of ways where sampling, pre-treatment and storage are all important factors affecting speciation. Appropriate analytical techniques for speciation studies can either be direct methods such as XAS, or indirect methods which require species separation prior to analysis. Separation techniques can be in the form of sequential extractions or column separation and analyte detection often utilises instrumentation such as ESI-MS, ICP-MS and ICP-OES.

“…In the study of Verma and Dubey 2003, in rice (Oryza sativa L.) seedlings raised in sand cultures in nutrient medium containing 500 and 1,000 μM Pb(NO) 3 for 10 and 20 days, root growth was reduced up to 42 % compared with 25 % reduced shoot growth and also absorbed Pb was to 3.3 times higher in roots compared to shoots. The content of Pb in different plant organs tends to decrease in order: roots>lea-ves>stem>inflorescence>seeds; and can vary with plant species (Antosiewicz 1992; Yoon et al 2006). In other study is proposed that inhibition of shoot growth in corn seedlings is not a consequence of Pb accumulation but due to unknown signal induced in roots as a response to Pb exposure (Malkowski et al 2002).…”

The present study aimed to analyze the biological effects induced by bioaccumulation of metals in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). Effects of mineral nutrient imbalance, total antioxidants level and DNA damage induced by accumulation of heavy metals, were investigated in bean seedlings treated with two selected metal concentrations for 7 days. Metal content is analyzed by inductively coupled plasma -atomic emission spectrometer (ICP-AES), for total antioxidants level assessment the Ferric-Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP) assay is used and Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) method was applied for investigation of DNA damages. The increasing metal concentration in the treatment medium changed synchronously metal content in samples, and decreased total antioxidant activity in all samples with exception only for samples treated with Ni and Cd. The obtained "DNA fingerprints" demonstrated that the increasing metal concentrations induced changes in RAPD profiles (disappearance and/or appearance of bands in comparison with untreated control samples). The highest number of missing bands was observed in samples treated with zinc (total 4 bands) and nickel (total 4 bands) at both concentrations. These results suggested that mineral nutrient imbalance is involved in changes of antioxidant levels and DNA damages of the seedlings, which may help to understand the mechanism of metal toxicity in plants.

“…5. The capacity, performance and ability of vegetation to accumulate Pb for root, leaf and stem of mangrove vegetation's are determined as Bioaccumulation Factor of Pb (BAF) of Pb (Yoon et al, 2006;Ahmadpour, 2012;Buwono et al, 2005;Madejon et al,2006;Ang et al,2010;Ashraf et al,2011;Madjid et al,2011;Maldonado-Magna, 2011). BAF is determined by ratio between Pb accumulation of mangrove vegetation with sediment.…”

“…If BAF > 1 this gives indication that mangrove species has best ability to accumulate Pb. The high score of BAF shows high capacity of vegetation to accumulate Pb from environment (Yoon et al, 2006;Branzini and Zubillaga, 2013). Figure 5 showed that the average of BAF from Rhizophora apiculata (35.8), Rhizophora mucronata (22.2), Avicennia marina (25.9), Sonneratia alba (28.1), Aegiceras corniculatum (42.1), Bruguiera gymnorrhiza (30.2), Bruguiera praviflora (30.4), Bruguiera sexangula (31.2), Sonneratia caseolaris (40.1).…”

Eastern part of Segara Anakan Lagoon (E-SAL) is an estuarine ecosystem to dispose industrial waste i.e. lead (Pb) containing waste. The study aims to analysis the distribution of Pb in soil, water and mangrove vegetation matrices. Several parameters including bioaccumulation factor (BAF), translocation factor (TF), leaf morphometric (the effect of Pb for mangrove vegetation) were used to estimate their impact. We developed a pre-design of mangrove zone as a model in reducing Pb cntaminantion in E-SAL. The results showed the distribution of Pb in E-SAL was 0.177 -0.233 mg/L (water), 0.320 -0.780 mg/kg (soil), 4.80-8.67 mg/kg (mangrove root), 2.48-6.96 mg/kg (mangrove stem), and 1.48-4.76 mg/kg (mangrove leaf). The scoring of BAF in mangrove vegetation had value between 22.2-40.1 and TF between 0.9-1.3. The distribution of Pb in soil depths were 8.89 mg/kg (0-50 cm) to 0.56 mg/kg (150-200 cm). The impact of Pb was 2-60 % of leaf damage on surface leafs. The mangrove zone to reduce impact of Pb in E-SAL was Rhizophora apiculata, Bruguiera sexangula, Aegiceras corniculatum and Sonneratia caseolaris as mangrove species in the first zone.
