“…Chromium, a naturally occurring heavy metal commonly used in many industrial manufacturing processes is responsible for major industrial and environmental pollution. The main chromium industries include metal plating and finishing, leather and textile manufacturing, electro-painting industries which discharge huge quantities of toxic metal ions to the surrounding environment [1][2][3]. Being non-degradable, chromium gets accumulated and persists in nature for a long time and may enter into the food chain causing remarkable health damage.…”

“…These metals, at higher concentration, are toxic and cause detrimental effects on human health (Trichopoulos 2001;Kocasoy and Sahin 2007). Chromium is a carcinogen and it also damages the gastrointestinal, respiratory and immunological systems (USEPA 1989;IARC 1990;Islam et al 2013). Cadmium, even at very small concentrations, is highly poisonous and chronic exposure to this metal can lead to anaemia, insomnia, cardiovascular diseases as well as hypertension (Sharma et al 2006).…”

“…Cadmium, even at very small concentrations, is highly poisonous and chronic exposure to this metal can lead to anaemia, insomnia, cardiovascular diseases as well as hypertension (Sharma et al 2006). Excessive lead exposure increases blood pressure, damages kidney, causes miscarriages and subtle abortions, hinders brain development, and leads to behavioural disruptions (Islam et al 2013). Arsenic causes vascular diseases, hyperpigmentation, lung and skin cancer, hypertension and genotoxicity (Islam et al 2018;Das et al 2004).…”
