“…By using appropriate methodological principle it is possible to predict the occurrence and critical levels of hazardous pollutants in order to repair their negative effects on the environment. Using laboratory methods, statistical information systems and selection of appropriate fertilizers and agricultural technology to a large extent can mitigate the toxic effects of heavy metals in the agroecosystem [ 24 - 26 ].…”

The metal is a chemical element that conducts electricity well and heat, and the nonferrous metals builds cations and ionic bonds. Heavy metals include metals whose density is higher than 5 g/cm3. The whole range of the metal is in the form of essential trace elements, essential for a number of functions in the human body, and its deficiency results in a lack of occurrence of a serious symptom. The best examples are anemia lack of iron, lack of chromium in diabetes, growth problems in lack of nickel. Other elements such as lead, cadmium, mercury, arsenic and molybdenum have been shown to exhibit large quantities of toxic effects. The paper examines the problem of heavy metals originating from agriculture on agroecosystems. This group of pollutants is considered the most important cause of degradation of soil quality, surface and groundwater and direct causal adverse effects on human and animal health. In order to complete the environmental monitoring of pollutants, these main categories, origins, and possible negative impacts of the basic principles of preventing their toxic effects were examined.

“…Both dyes are allowed to use in certain food and food products under stringent dose conditions. The Codex Alimentarius has not listed any provision for Azorubine (FAO/WHO, 2019), while Amaranth has been associated with cancers (Jusufranic et al, 2014) and banned in many countries. It was hypothesized that both azo dyes have distinct effects on spermatogenesis and cauda epididymal sperms.…”

The present study examined effects of Azorubine (E122) and Amaranth (123) on male reproductive system of Swiss albino mice. Control (Group I, n=20) was treated with vehicle. Two treatment groups based on azorubine (Group II) and amaranth (Group III) treatment were designed with sub-groups for doses 1/2LD50 and 1/4LD50 (Group IIa, Group IIb, Group IIIa and Group IIIb) consisting of 20 animals each. Five animals from each group and sub-group were sacrificed at 7th, 14th, 21st, and 28th day of administration. Body and testis weight were measured, along with cauda sperm characteristics and testicular histology. Level of reproductive hormones were also examined. Results showed significant deterioration of sperm characteristics after treatment with both dyes. Major types of sperm deformities noticed in azorubine and amaranth treated animals were broken tail, bend tail, cytoplasmic droplet, head-tail separation, coiled tail, and headless sperms. More than 30% decline in motility and abnormality was noted in animals treated with amaranth. Histological observation indicated cytotoxic damages in amaranth treated mice, while azorubine treated animals exhibited large scale disorganization of germ cells and interference in spermatogenesis. Conclusively, azorubine and amaranth at the doses used in this study were detrimental to spermatogenesis. Deformities found in the cauda epididymal sperms indicated consequential impact on the rate of fertility.

Industry is one of the main activities in the city and in many cities of the world, and the dominant industrial zones are the most significant morphological forms of concentration of industrial facilities in the city and are concentrated industrial and business activity. Industrial parks combine activities related to energy and resource consumption, emissions, waste generation, economic benefits, and regional development. The focus of this work is the path of transformation between the present and the vision of a sustainable city in the future. The problem and the subject of research related to two related objects of research: the city and sustainable development. In this paper, the co-author's industrial symbiosis parks, modern tendencies of the spatial distribution of productive activities, circular economy, to attract leading corporations and open the way for new ventures while preserving the living environment in an urban area.
