“…Mäkelä-Kurtto et al [10] found in Pirkanmaa region (Finland) that in arable soil, only about 1% of total arsenic was in soluble forms, and the arsenic content was higher in the lower mineral layers. Tlustoš et al [11] observed that the presence of dimethylarsinic acid (DMA) in soil strongly affected the radish growth and the soil properties; the lowest As immobilization was found in Fluvisols while was higher in Luvisols and Chernozems. This was explained on the basis that Fluvisols are characterized by poor sorption capacity and low clay particle content, so that DMA remains available for plant uptake.…”

The present study investigated the effects of using arsenic (As) contaminated irrigation water in Lactuca sativa L. cropping. Two different arsenic concentrations, i.e., 25 and 85 μg L(-1) and two different soils, i.e., sandy and clay loam, were taken into account. We determined the arsenic mobility in the different soil fractions, its amount in groundwater, and the phytotoxicity and genotoxicity. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP) were used to assess the lettuce metabolic profile changes and the arsenic uptake by the plant, respectively, as a function of the various conditions studied, i.e., As content and type of soil. Data indicated that at both concentrations in sandy soil, arsenic is in part quickly leached and thus present in groundwater and in part absorbed by the vegetable, being therefore readily available for assimilation by consumption. NMR results reported a large modification of the metabolic pattern, which was depending on the pollutant amount. In clay loam soil, the groundwater had a low As content with respect to sandy soil, and NMR and ICP performed on the lettuce did not reveal severe changes related to As, most likely because the metalloid is bound to the colloidal fraction.

“…The contents of mobile Cd slightly exceed the proposal of mobile Cd content limit in agricultural soils of the Czech Republic (Vácha et al 2010). The As solubility is generally low (Tlustoš et al 2004) and therefore exceeded total content of As in the sediment only slightly increased As mobile fractions. Nevertheless, the risk is regarding total As contents due to human health risk following from inhalation and dermatological As intake from diffuse dust particles (Saha 2003).…”

A set of 29 pond sediments samples was collected. The sediments were separated into three groups, field, village, and forest pond sediments. The sediment samples were taken from pond bottoms and sediment heaps. The sediment characteristics (pH, CEC, Al-exchangeable, C ox , humus substances), the content of potentially toxic elements and persistent organic pollutants were analysed in the sediments and compared between sediment groups. The comparison of sediment contamination with Czech legislation for sediment use in agriculture was conducted. The village sediments were more loaded by potentially toxic elements and persistent organic pollutants than the others. The pH value of sediments was considered as the properties regulating the retention of potentially toxic elements and their mobility (Al, Cd, Zn). Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were the most problematic POPs group in the sediments. The correlation showed poor dependency of POPs (especially PAHs) content on the content and quality of sediment organic matter.

“…Researchers did a great deal of scientific investigation on the harmful effects of As on crops recently, but most of these researches concentrate on one kind of soil or with a certain type of crop [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. Some other works were about phytoremediation of arsenic polluted soils; these researches aim to find a new kind of plant as As-hyperaccumulator [12][13][14][15].…”

Greenhouse trials with brassica camprestris (BC) and raphanns sativns (RS) grown in three types of Chinese soils (Henan fluvo-aquic soil; Jilin black soil; and Hunan red soil) were conducted to evaluate the growth effect and accumulation of As on/in vegetables resulting from different arsenic contents in soils. The arsenic uptake rate of the vegetables response to type of soils and investigated plant species as well. Experimental results show that low arsenic content in soil has no effect on vegetable growth, but promote the biomass of vegetables. However, higher arsenic concentrations in soils lead to decrease in growth of both leaf- and root systems of the vegetables, especially when arsenic concentration is above 90 mg kg-1 in the soil. Arsenic levels in soils and vegetables correlated positively according to the experimental results. The tests also reveal that vegetables grown in alkali soils may accumulate more arsenic than that in acid soils, which suggests that arsenic in different types of soil may have different impacts on vegetables even with the same concentration. Arsenic concentration in RS is always higher than that in BC during the experiments, which indicates root vegetables may, have greater ability for arsenic uptake from soil than leafy vegetables potentially.
