“…The mean levels of Na and K in onion bulbs of this study were higher than those reported by Mendez et al [23] and the results from Saudi Arabia and U.S.A. [16,28]. However Khan et al [22] have reported K and Na as high as 86422 and 15113 mg/kg, respectively. The levels of Na were similar to those studied in Denmark but higher than those in Saudi Arabia and U.S.A. [16,28].…”

Mn concentration as high as 76 mg/kg has been reported however by Khan et al [22]. Mn is so important in brain and bone development and safe and adequate daily intake of 2−3 mg for an adult is recommended [16,28].…”

ABSTRACT. The levels of major (Na, K, Ca and Mg), trace (Cu, Co, Cr, Mn, and Zn), and toxic (Cd and Pb) metals in onion (Allium cepa L.) bulbs and irrigation water were determined by flame atomic absorption spectroscopy (FAAS). Dissolution of onion samples was carried out by wet digestion with a total volume of 2 mL HNO3 (69−72%) and 2 mL HClO4 (70%) mixture in a flask fitted with reflux condenser on Kjeldahl heating apparatus. The levels of major metals were Na (208 and 121 µg/g), K (3127 and 3298 µg/g), Ca (599 and 550 µg/g) and Mg (516 and 407 µg/g) in onion irrigated with water from well and Lake Ziway, respectively. Among the trace metals (µg/g dry weight), Zn was the highest (18 and 14) followed by Mn (8.8 and 13), Cr (4.9 and 6.6), Cu (3.2 and 3.6), and Co (1.2 and 1.8) in onion irrigated with water from well and Lake Ziway, respectively. The toxic metal Cd was 0.6 and 0.5 µg/g in onion irrigated with well and lake waters, respectively, while Pb was below method detection limit. The levels of Na, K, Ca and Mg detected in well water and the Lake Ziway water used for irrigation were (9.4, 4.6 mg/L), (43, 13 mg/L), (23, 10 mg/L) and (30, 8.6 mg/L), respectively. Higher levels of Zn (0.08 mg/L) and Co (0.06 mg/L) were found in the lake water while higher Mn (1.1 mg/L) and Cr (0.44 mg/L) in well water. The toxic metal Pb in both well and Lake Ziway water, and Cd in well water samples were below the method detection limits. Mn in well water and Cr in both water samples exceeded the FAO limit of maximum recommended level in irrigation waters.

Hegemonic Muslim Masculinities and Their Others: Perspectives from South and Southeast Asia

This article provides ethnographic, comparative, and theoretical perspectives on Muslim masculinities in South and Southeast Asia, home to more than half the world's 1.9 billion Muslims. Its empirical and thematic focus broadens the scholarly discussion of gender and sexuality among Muslims insofar as most of the literature deals with the Middle East and North Africa and is devoted to women and the discourses and practices of femininity and sexuality associated with them. More specifically, the article develops theoretical insights bearing on gender hegemonies and the pluralities and hierarchies of discourses on masculinities in the Muslim-majority nations of Pakistan and Malaysia, each of which illustrates broad trends in the region. It thus sheds important light on the empirical diversity of Muslim masculinities (amidst commonalities) and some of the ways they have been informed by locally and regionally variable macro-level processes keyed to colonialism, postcolonial nation-building, global/neoliberal capitalism, and post-Cold War geopolitical struggles including the Global War on Terror.
