“…In both seasons, Cd contributed the highest percentage (58) of the total RR value recorded. Thus, Cd was the metal in the studied sediments with the highest tendency to cause noncarcinogenic health problems on those exposed to these sediments, followed by Pb, [92]. The high Cd enrichment observed in this study is similar to the findings by Wang et al [93] and Liu et al [94].…”

The concentrations of Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn, Pb, and Cd in sediments from Great Kwa, Calabar, Cross River, Imo, and Qua Iboe Rivers were investigated during the dry and wet seasons using standard techniques. Results indicated that the mean concentrations of all the metals were within their acceptable limits although; higher concentrations were obtained during the wet season. Cd was the major contaminant in the studied sediments; the ecological risks of all the metals except Cd were in the low class. The potential ecological risks of the metals were in the low and moderate categories during the dry and wet seasons, respectively. Sediments from Qua Iboe River exhibited very high human health risks for both seasons. Factor analysis revealed anthropogenic and natural factors as the major sources of these metals in sediments from the rivers investigated for both seasons. The estimated daily intake (EDI) rates of these metals via exposure to the studied sediments were within their recommended oral reference doses however; higher wet season values were recorded. The hazard index (HI) values of the trace metals were less than one (1) but, higher during the wet season. Pb and Cd were the major contributors to the total HI during the dry and wet seasons. The relative risk analysis for both seasons also confirmed Cd as the major human risk in the studied sediments. This research has exposed the levels of trace metals and their associated human risks in sediments from the rivers investigated.

“…Cd contributed the highest proportion (81.4 %) while; Cr donated 0.01 % of the entire RR obtained. Consequently, Cd was the metal with the most devastating tendency to cause both the cancer and non-cancer risks to the consumers of meat from the studied farms (Rahimzadeh et al, 2017;Furtak et al, 2022). The high RR value reported is in agreement with the ones by Kumar and Kumar, (2021) 2020).…”

Poultry-related foods are consumed as good and cheap sources of protein globally. This research investigated the levels of Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn in poultry feeds, water samples, and broilers obtained from poultry farms randomly sampled within Uyo Metropolis. These poultry-related products were obtained, treated, and analysed spectrophotometrically using standard analytical techniques. Results showed that, the concentrations of all the metals in poultry feeds and broiler meat were within their recommended limits however, mean levels of Cd and Fe in water sample was higher than their permissible limits. Concentrations in poultry feeds were generally higher than their levels in broiler meat. Multivariate analyses indentified varied factors responsible for the accumulation of these metals in feeds, water samples, and broiler meat examined. The estimated daily intake (EDI) of Cd, Fe, and Zn were higher than their oral reference doses (Rfds) for both the children and adults’ populations. The hazard quotients (HQ) of Cd, Fe, Pb, and Zn for both populations were also higher than one (1). The hazard index of the metals for populations were higher than one but, the children class were more susceptible to non-carcinogenic risks. The incremental lifetime cancer risk (ILCR) for the carcinogens varied between medium to very high cancer risk classes. The total cancer risk (TCR) for the children and adults’ populations were 1.54E-01 and 1.43E-01, respectively higher than the standard limits. The relative risk (RR) analysis identified Cd as metal with the highest potential to cause cancer and non-cancer risks in the consumers of broiler meat from the studied poultry farms. This study has indicated the significance of assessing poultry feeds and related products to establish to the quality.

“…nonetheless, it will take a long time for MTBE to be completely eradicated from contaminated water sources. This chemical molecule, which is present in high amounts in contaminated water, has been related to tumors of the genitalia, kidneys, and gland, as well as leukaemia and lymphoma (Picetti et al, 2022;Furtak et al, 2022).…”

Instead of typical household trash, the heavy metal complexes, organic chemicals, and other poisons produced by huge enterprises threaten water systems across the world. In order to protect our drinking water from pollution, we must keep a close eye on the situation. Nanotechnology, specifically two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials, is used in certain wastewater treatment systems. Graphene, g-C3N4, MoS2, and MXene are just a few examples of emerging 2D nanomaterials that exhibit an extraordinary ratio of surface (m3), providing material consumption, time consumption, and treatment technique for cleaning and observing water. In this post, we'll talk about the ways in which 2D nanomaterials may be tuned to perform certain functions, namely how they can be used for water management. The following is a quick overview of nanostructured materials and its possible use in water management: Also discussed in length are the applications of 2D nanomaterials in water purification, including pollutant adsorption, filtration, disinfection, and photocatalysis. Fluorescence sensors, colorimetric, electrochemical, and field-effect transistors are only some of the devices being studied for their potential use in monitoring water quality using 2D nanomaterials. Utilizing 2D content has its benefits and pitfalls when used to water management. New developments in this fast-expanding business will boost water treatment quality and accessibility in response to rising awareness of the need of clean, fresh water among future generations.
