As3MT and GST Polymorphisms Influencing Arsenic Metabolism in Human Exposure to Drinking Groundwater
(MDPI, 2020)
The urinary arsenic metabolites may vary among individuals and the genetic factors have been reported to explain part of the variation. We assessed the influence of polymorphic variants of Arsenic-3-methyl-transferase and ...
As3MT and GST polymorphisms influencing arsenic metabolism in human Exposure to drinking groundwater
(MDPI, 2020)
The urinary arsenic metabolites may vary among individuals and the genetic factors have been reported to explain part of the variation. We assessed the influence of polymorphic variants of Arsenic-3-methyl-transferase and ...
Arsenic exposure, profiles of urinary arsenic species, and polymorphism effects of glutathione-s-transferase and metallothioneins
(Elsevier Ltd, 2018)
© 2018 Elsevier Ltd This study assessed the effects of polymorphic variants of gutathione-S-transferase and metallothioneins on profiles of urinary arsenic species. Drinking groundwater from Margarita and San Fernando, ...
Effect of biosolid incorporation on arsenic distribution in Mollisol soils in central Chile
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2008-01)
The effect of biosolid incorporation on arsenic distribution in Mollisol soils in central Chile was studied. Two soils were sequentially extracted for arsenic with a five-step method that accounts for the following arsenic ...
Arsenic exposure and its impact on health in Chile
(I C D D R B-CENTRE HEALTH POPULATION RESEARCH, 2006-06)
The problem of arsenic in Chile was reviewed. In Chile, the population is exposed to arsenic naturally via drinking-water and by air pollution resulted from mining activities. The sources of arsenic were identified to ...
Impact of arsenic exposure on clinicopathological characteristics of bladder cancer: a comparative study between patients from an arsenic-exposed region and nonexposed reference sites
(Elsevier, 2020)
Background: Beyond exposure to arsenic in drinking-water, there is few information about demographic and clinicopathological features of patients with bladder cancer living in arsenic-exposed regions. The aim of the study ...
Influence of redox potential (Eh) on the availability of arsenic species in soils and soils amended with biosolid
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2008-08)
A Study was done on the influence of redox potential on the mobility and availability of the various arsenic chemical forms in a Mollisol soil from central Chile amended with biosolid. Arsenic availability was strongly ...
Carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic health risks of arsenic exposure in drinking water in the rural environment
(Iran Solid Waste Association, 2020)
Carcinogenic and systemic health effects of arsenic exposure in drinking water are well documented. This study estimated the risk associated with chronic consumption of water with high concentrations of arsenic in children ...
The effect of substrate media on the removal of arsenic, boron and iron from an acidic wastewater in planted column reactors
(Elsevier, 2012-01)
Acidic wastewaters, such as occur in acid mine drainage, typically contain heavy metals and metalloids that pose a serious threat to receiving waters, due to their high toxicity. In this study, vertical flow wetland columns, ...
Arsenic removal using horizontal subsurface flow constructed Wetlands: A sustainable alternative for arsenic-rich acidic waters
(MDPI AG, 2018)
Constructed wetlands (CW) have been widely used to treat different types of water, including acid mine drainage (AMD). However, little is known about their performance in the removal of As from AMD. In this study, a ...
