A systematic evaluation of Flow Field Flow Fractionation and single-particle ICP-MS to obtain the size distribution of organo-mineral iron oxyhydroxide colloids.
particle size with high resolution in a 1 mM NHHCO (pH 8.3) background and can detect Fe- NOM complexes <5 nm and organo-mineral FeOx particles ranging 5-300 nm. The sp- ICP- MS method had a size ...
Toxicity in lead salt spiked soils to plants, invertebrates and microbial processes: Unraveling effects of acidification, salt stress and ageing reactions.
soil microbial processes. Three soils were spiked with Pb2+ salts up to a concentration of 8000 mg Pb/kg and were tested either after spiking, after soil leaching followed by pH correction, or after ...
Selenium content of Belgian cultivated soils and its uptake by field crops and vegetables.
with increasing pH. The Se concentrations in Belgian soils are far too low to generate a driving force on Se uptake. General climatic conditions such as temperature, air humidity and soil moisture are ...
Sick leave due to back pain in a cohort of young workers.
Publication Type: Peer reviewed scientific article Authors: An Van Nieuwenhuyse; Burdorf, A; Crombez, G; Verbeke, G; Masschelein, R; Mairiaux, Ph; Moens, G F; BelCoBack Study Group Source: Int Arch ...
A dynamic model to calculate cadmium concentrations in bovine tissues from basic soil characteristics.
known. The exposure part of the chain model consists of two parts: (1) a soil-plant transfer model, deriving cadmium concentrations in feed from basic soil characteristics (pH and organic matter content) ...
Cadmium exposure in the population: from health risks to strategies of prevention.
maintaining agricultural and garden soils pH close to neutral (pH-H(2)O of 7.5; pH- KCL of 6.5). Reducing the systemic bioavailability of intestinal Cd can be best achieved by preserving a balanced iron status. ...
