甲醛及苯系物混合暴露对小鼠肺脏的氧化损伤作用

为探讨甲醛、苯、甲苯及二甲苯混合气体急性暴露对小鼠肺脏的氧化损伤作用,选用雄性健康昆明种小鼠50只,随机分为对照组和4个染毒组。染毒组1到4中甲醛、苯、甲苯和二甲苯浓度依次为:1.0+1.1+2.0+2.0μg·L-1、3.0+3.3+6.0+6.0μg·L-1、5.0+5.5+10.0+10.0μg·L-1、10.0+11.0+20.0+20.0μg·L-1,各染毒组混合气体的浓度分别是我国室内空气质量标准(GB/T18883-2002)的10、30、50和100倍。用静式吸入染毒方式,每天染毒2h,共染毒10d,实验结束后,测定小鼠肺脏中的氧化损伤指标。结果表明:染毒组小鼠的体重增加幅度均低于对照组,肝脏和脾脏系数显著低于对照组,肺脏ROS、MDA含量随染毒剂量的增加而增加,T-AOC、GSH、CAT、GSH-Px及SOD活力随染毒剂量的增加而降低,并且ROS、MDA含量与混合气体的浓度呈显著的正相关关系,GSH含量与混合气体的浓度呈显著的负相关关系。研究结果显示,甲醛、苯、甲苯及二甲苯混合气体急性暴露对小鼠肺脏具有氧化损伤作用,混合气体的联合毒性效应强于单一组分,ROS、MDA和GSH可以作为评价VOCs急性暴露对机体氧化损伤作用的敏感生物学标志。     

碲化镉量子点Cd~(2+)释放对小鼠肝、肾组织毒作用的研究

探讨碲化镉量子点(cadmium telluride quantum dots,Cd Te QDs)Cd2+释放与其体内毒性之间的关系。将24只雄性ICR小鼠(24.7~26.8g)随机分为4组,每组6只,分别为0 nmol组(对照组)、5 nmol染毒组、50 nmol染毒组和500 nmol染毒组(以Cd2+的摩尔浓度计算)。采用尾静脉注射方式进行染毒,染毒组注射0.15 ml不同浓度的Cd Te QDs溶液,对照组注射同等体积的生理盐水。染毒24h后小鼠脱臼处死,计算脏器系数,进行血常规和血清生化指标分析以及肝、肾组织的病理组织学检查。选取金属硫蛋白(metallothionein,MT)作为生物体内游离Cd2+水平的生物标志物,通过酶联免疫吸附实验(ELISA)和免疫组织化学技术检测小鼠肝、肾组织中的MT水平。结果表明,各染毒组小鼠肝、肾脏器系数与对照组相比,差异无统计学意义(P0.05),尿素氮水平与对照组相比显著降低(P0.01)。随着染毒剂量增加,小鼠肝、肾组织病理改变逐渐加重,肝细胞可见不同程度的水性样变和肿胀;肾小管管腔水肿、肾上皮细胞水样变性,以及远曲小管水肿。染毒组小鼠肝、肾组织中MT的含量与对照组相比明显升高(P0.05),且随着染毒剂量增加MT表达增强。研究结果提示,Cd Te QDs对小鼠肝、肾组织具有一定的毒作用,其毒作用大小与Cd Te QDs降解释放的游离Cd2+含量呈正相关。     

镉致鸡血管氧化应激与金属硫蛋白含量的变化

为探讨镉(Cd)对血管抗氧化功能及金属硫蛋白(MT)的影响,将180只50日龄健康雌性海兰鸡随机分为3组(对照组、低剂量组和高剂量组),分别饲喂含0、140、210mg·kg-1(BW)CdCl2的基础日粮,在饲养20、40、60d后采集主动脉和前腔静脉,测定其MT含量,超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-Px)活性及丙二醛(MDA)含量.结果表明:1)Cd暴露后,与对照组相比,低剂量组血管MT含量显著升高(p<0.01),并随暴露时间的延长而逐渐增加;高剂量组血管MT含量显著降低(p<0.01),并随暴露时间的延长先升高后降低.2)随着Cd暴露剂量的加大,血管SOD、GSH-Px活性逐渐降低,而MDA含量逐渐升高,具有明显的剂量-效应关系.3)随着暴露时间的延长,血管SOD、GSH-Px活性逐渐降低,MDA含量逐渐升高,具有明显的时间-效应关系.4)Cd暴露下,主动脉与前腔静脉各指标具有相同的变化趋势.以上结果表明,Cd具有血管毒性,其毒作用机理可能与MT含量变化以及抗氧化功能失衡有关.     

水体中重金属镉和锌对大型蚤联合毒性效应的初步研究

镉锌联合诱导金属硫蛋白在鲫鱼肝脏和肾脏中的表达

以鲫鱼Carassius auratus为试验材料,研究了在一定环境条件下重金属镉(Cd)锌(Zn)联合胁迫对鲫鱼肝脏和肾脏组织中金属硫蛋白(MT)质量分数的影响.结果表明,Cd2+与Zn2+联合胁迫下,鲫鱼的肝脏和肾脏组织中MT质量分数的总体变化趋势较为一致,都是呈先升高后降低再升高,MT的质量分数在12 h时达到峰值,肝脏MT质量分数达(4.84±0.28)(10.63±0.72)μg·g-1,肾脏MT质量分数达(6.34±0.39)(12.99±0.52)μg·g-1.从诱导的数量来看,Cd2+与Zn2+联合胁迫下肝脏和肾脏中MT质量分数均高于单独Cd2+试验组中的结果,这表明Zn2+的存在可以增强Cd2+诱导鲫鱼组织中MT合成的能力;肝脏在试验后的12 h内的增加速率最大为0.16～0.64μg·g-1·h-1,肾脏在试验后的6 h内的增加速率最大为0.41～1.70 μg·g-1·h-1,表明水体中的Cd2+与Zn2+联合可诱导鲫鱼组织中MT的合成与表达,且诱导时间主要在12 h之内.     

硫化镉量子点对人胚肝细胞L-02的毒性研究(Cadmium Sulfide Quantum Dots Induce Cytotoxicity in Human Embryo Liver Cells)

采用乳化液膜法自组合成硫化镉量子点(CdS quantum dots,CdS QDs),探讨CdS QDs的体外毒性作用及可能的作用机制.选用人胚肝细胞(L-02)作为细胞模型,采用不同浓度的CdS QDs(0.00、1.25、2.50、5.00、10.00、20.00、40.00μg·mL-1)对L-02细胞进行染毒.24h后,检测细胞内乳酸脱氢酶(LDH)释放量、谷胱甘肽(GSH)含量和超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活力,并比较加入抗氧化剂N-乙酞半胱氨酸(NAC)后细胞存活率的变化,同时测定了细胞内外的镉离子浓度.结果表明,与空白对照组相比,CdS QDs单独染毒组细胞存活率显著降低(p<0.05或p<0.01);加入抗氧化剂NAC后,10.00、20.00、40.00μg·mL-1染毒组细胞存活率与单独染毒组相比显著上升(p<0.01).CdS QDs浓度为5.00μg·mL-1时,细胞内Cd2+的浓度略高于细胞外Cd2+的浓度,在其他浓度下,细胞外Cd2+的浓度均显著高于细胞内Cd2+的浓度.当作用浓度上升至10.00μg·mL-1时,人胚肝细胞内LDH含量显著增加,且随着作用剂量的升高,LDH含量逐渐增加.与空白对照组相比,40.00μg·mL-1CdS QDs染毒组SOD活力和20.00μg·mL-1CdS QDs染毒组GSH含量均显著降低(p<0.05).Cd2+易透过L-02细胞的细胞膜而进入细胞内,从而造成细胞损伤.氧化损伤可能是CdSQDs对L-02细胞毒性作用的机制之一.     

纳米碳黑与重金属对BEAS-2B细胞的联合毒性作用模式评价

通过研究空气颗粒物的代表性组分纳米碳黑(nano particle carbon black,NPCB)与重金属(Pb/Cr/Cd)联合染毒对BEAS-2B细胞存活率和LDH漏出率的影响,旨在阐明NPCB与重金属对细胞毒性的联合作用模式。检测NPCB与重金属(Pb/Cr/Cd)联合染毒24 h后BEAS-2B细胞存活率(CCK-8法)和LDH漏出率(LDH活性比色法)的变化,采用析因方差分析判断其是否存在联合毒性作用及联合作用模式。NPCB与重金属(Pb/Cr/Cd)联合染毒在细胞存活率和LDH漏出方面存在联合作用;与对照组和单独染毒组相比,低剂量Pb(125μmol·L-1)与NPCB联合染毒对细胞存活率无交互作用,对LDH漏出表现为拮抗作用;高剂量Pb(1 000μmol·L-1)与NPCB联合染毒对细胞存活率表现为协同作用,对LDH漏出无交互作用;Cr和Cd与NPCB联合染毒在细胞存活率方面均表现为协同作用;低剂量Cr和Cd与NPCB联合染毒在LDH漏出方面无交互作用,高剂量时表现为协同作用。NPCB与重金属存在联合作用,金属不同、剂量不同以及评价指标不同,其联合作用模式不尽相同。     

磺胺二甲嘧啶与镉单一和复合污染对生菜生长的影响

为阐明磺胺二甲基嘧啶(SM2)与镉(Cd)对生菜(LachicasativaL.)的单独和复合毒性效应及其毒性机制,采用随机区组试验研究了水培条件下,SM2(0、0.5、2、10 mg·L~(-1))与Cd(0、1、5 mg·L~(-1))单一和复合污染对生菜种子发芽、幼苗生长和污染物积累的影响。结果表明,单一SM2处理对生菜幼苗根伸长具有一定的毒性效应,与对照相比,单一SM2处理下,随SM2质量浓度的增加(0.5-10 mg·L~(-1)),根长抑制率增加了11.51%-51.87%;但单一SM2处理对生菜发芽率、生物量则无显著影响。而单一Cd处理对生菜发芽率、根生物量以及根伸长均无显著影响。Cd的加入可以增强SM2对生菜的毒害作用,与10 mg·L~(-1) SM2处理相比,10 mg·L~(-1) SM2+5 mg·L~(-1) Cd处理的发芽率降低了7.14%;加入1、5mg·L~(-1)Cd后SM2的根伸长半抑制浓度IC50分别降低了7.89%、23.68%。单一污染条件下,生菜对Cd/SM2的积累随污染物质量浓度的增加而增加。低浓度Cd处理(1 mg·L~(-1))条件下,加入SM2可显著降低生菜根系和地上部Cd含量,但是对于高浓度Cd(5 mg·L~(-1)),加入SM2可以增加根系和地上部Cd积累量。低浓度SM2(0.5、2 mg·L~(-1))条件下,加入Cd可显著促进生菜根部SM2的累积,但高浓度SM2(10mg·L~(-1))条件下,Cd的加入却显著降低生菜根部SM2的累积。SM2处理下,Cd的加入对生菜地上部SM2的积累无显著影响。SM2/Cd在生菜中的富集和迁移受其性质、投加量及质量浓度组合影响,复合污染下生菜对Cd的积累能力在较高Cd质量浓度时表现出协同作用,而对SM2的积累能力则在相对低质量浓度时表现出协同作用。这可能与Cd和SM2复合存在条件下会形成络合物,以及络合物对生菜产生的毒性效应有关。     

石灰性褐土中柠檬酸对土壤Cu(Ⅱ)、Cd(Ⅱ)吸附-解吸的影响

通过室内培养和吸附-解吸实验,研究了不同柠檬酸含量土壤对Cu2+、Cd2+吸附-解吸的影响.结果表明,土壤对Cu2+的吸附量随加入柠檬酸量的增加而明显增加,达到峰值后(柠檬酸含量为0.5 mmol.kg-1),吸附量随柠檬酸含量的增加而下降,即Cu2+的吸附曲线呈峰型.在低柠檬酸含量时,土壤对Cu2+的吸附量受Cd2+浓度影响较小,但随柠檬酸含量的增加,在低铜浓度处理(Cu2+浓度为600 mg·L-1,Cu600)下,土壤对Cu2+的吸附量随Cd2+浓度的增大而增大,但在高浓度铜处理(Cu2+浓度为1000 mg·L-1,Cu1000)下,土壤对Cu2+的吸附量随Cd2+浓度的增加而减少.Cu2+的解吸量随柠檬酸含量的增加而总体上降低;相同柠檬酸含量下,Cu600处理下,Cd2+浓度为10 mg·L-1(Cd10)条件下Cu2+解吸量明显低于无Cd2+(Cd0)和Cd2+浓度为1 mg·L-1(Cd1)条件下.而Cu1000处理下,Cd2+的浓度对Cu2+解吸量的影响较小.Cd2+吸附量随柠檬酸含量的增加无明显变化,但随Cu2+浓度的增加下降明显,其中无Cu2+处理Cd2+吸附量极显著地高于Cu600和Cu1000处理,而Cu600和Cu1000处理间差异不显著,且土壤对Cd2+的吸附随镉添加量增加而增加;Cd2+的解吸量随柠檬酸含量的增加先增大后保持稳定,在柠檬酸含量为0.5 mmol.kg-1时达到最大,Cu600处理的Cd2+的解吸量显著地高于Cu1000处理.     

基于PBPK模型的大鼠体内镉分布的比较:联合暴露及单独暴露

环境中同时存在着多种重金属元素,联合暴露与单独暴露时,重金属在体内的蓄积分布情况也可能有所差异。为探究重金属元素(汞、铬、砷、铅)对镉(Cd)在体内分布的影响,建立了大鼠在Cd暴露下的药代动力学(PBPK)模型,并进行了包括Cd在内5种重金属的联合毒性实验,比较了Cd单独给药与重金属混合物给药2种方式下大鼠肝脏、肾脏中的Cd浓度水平。结果表明,联合暴露高(Hg Cl23.67 mg·kg~(-1),NaAsO_2 3.67 mg·kg~(-1),CdCl_2 10.55 mg·kg~(-1),K_2Cr_2O_7 6.40 mg·kg~(-1),Pb(OOCCH_3)_2·3H_2O 133.33 mg·kg~(-1))、中(HgCl_20.367 mg·kg~(-1),NaAsO_2 0.367 mg·kg~(-1),CdCl_2 1.055 mg·kg~(-1),K2Cr2O70.640 mg·kg~(-1),Pb(OOCCH_3)_2·3H_2O 13.333 mg·kg~(-1))、低(HgCl_2 0.0367 mg·kg~(-1),Na As O20.0367 mg·kg~(-1),Cd Cl20.1055 mg·kg~(-1),K_2Cr_2O_7 0.0640 mg·kg~(-1),Pb(OOCCH3)2·3H2O 1.3333 mg·kg~(-1))剂量组大鼠肝脏中Cd浓度分别为13.37、0.78和0.06μg·g~(-1);肾脏中Cd浓度分别为14.41、1.64和0.15μg·g~(-1)。与对照组相比,暴露组中Cd浓度有显著升高,且不同剂量组之间均有显著性差异。同剂量Cd单独暴露的PBPK模拟结果显示,肝脏及肾脏中的Cd浓度水平落在联合毒性实验结果的浓度范围内,初步推断其他4种重金属的联合暴露并没有影响Cd在大鼠肾脏和肝脏中的浓度分布。     

Polarographic investigations on the complexation of cadmium and zinc by thiol peptides

Complex formation of Cd²⁺ and Zn²⁺ with thiol derivatives has been investigated by differential pulse polarography. The binding of Cd²⁺ and Zn²⁺ with cysteine (CySH), glutathione (GSH) and the model peptide N‐acetyl‐cysteine‐methylamide (ASH) reveals different stoichiometry. Thus, Cd²⁺ forms 1:1 and 1:2 complexes with CySH while 1:2 and 1:4 complexes have been observed with GSH and ASH, respectively. Overall formation constants of Cd²⁺ with CySH (Iogβ ₂ 15.3) and with GSH (Iogβ5₂ 14.4) have been estimated using competitive complexation with nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA). Investigation of competition between Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ for the thiol complexation has underlined the role played by the amino group in CySH for the stabilization of Zn complexes in contrary to Cd complexes.     

Cd2+ adsorption on alkaline-pretreated diatomaceous earth: equilibrium and thermodynamic studies

Naturally occurring diatomaceous earth was modified by alkaline pretreatment, and its effectiveness for Cd²⁺ removal from contaminated water was investigated. Batch experiments were carried out to determine Cd²⁺ adsorption capacity and the efficiency of the sorption process under different experimental conditions. Experimental data showed good fitting to Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms models. The Cd²⁺ maximum adsorption capacity was 0.058 mmol g⁻¹ for raw diatomite and increased to 0.195 mmol g⁻¹ for alkaline-pretreated diatomite with efficiency higher than 96% (diatomite dose 2.5 g L⁻¹, pH 6). Adsorption of Cd²⁺ to alkaline-pretreated diatomite increased as the temperature increased. Thermodynamic parameters were calculated to evaluate the feasibility of the adsorption process at different temperatures. The adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. The interaction between Cd²⁺ ions and diatomite surface was weak enough to be considered as physical sorption, confirmed by the low value of activation energy.     

Capacity of simultaneous removal of zinc and cadmium from contaminated media, by two microalgae isolated from a polluted site

Several aquatic environments have been contaminated with heavy metals dumped via industrial effluents. Numerous studies have been published regarding the removal of single metals from aqueous solutions by microalgal biomass. However, such studies do not reflect the actual problem associated with industrial effluents because usually more than one metal species is present. Here we studied the biosorption capacity of Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ as single- and binary-metal systems by two microalgae, Scenedesmus obliquus and Desmodesmus pleiomorphus, isolated from a polluted site in Northern Portugal. For each metal independently, D. pleiomorphus showed a higher metal sorption capacity than S. obliquus, at concentrations ranging from 60 to 300 mg/l (except 150 mg_Cd/l). Maximum amounts of Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ removed were 22.3 and 60.8 mg/g by S. obliquus, and 83.1 and 58.6 mg/g by D. pleiomorphus. In binary-metal solutions, S. obliquus was in general able to remove Zn²⁺ to higher extents than Cd²⁺, whereas the opposite was observed with D. pleiomorphus. The simultaneous uptake of Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ by both microalgae was considerably lower than that of their single-metal counterparts, at equivalent concentrations. Although microalgal uptake from binary-metal solutions was lower than from single-metal ones, the wild microalgae selected were able to efficiently take up mixtures of Zn²⁺ and Cd²⁺ up to 300 mg/l of both metals—thus materializing a promising bioremediation vector for polluted waters.     

Single and combined effects of heavy metals and hormones on lysosomes of haemolymph cells from the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis

Effects of heavy metals on lysosomes were studied in living cells from the mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis Lam.). Haemolymph cells were obtained from the mussel adductor muscle, stained with neutral red (NR), and analysed by digital imaging to evaluate NR retention times within lysosomes. Exposure to Hg²⁺, Cd²⁺ and Cu²⁺ induced a reduction of NR retention time, indicating lysosomal membrane destabilisation. The intensity of these effects was correlated with the metal affinity for sulfhydryls. In contrast, Zn²⁺ showed no effect on lysosomes. Moreover, 200 μM Zn²⁺ protected lysosomes against the effects of Cd²⁺ and Cu²⁺, but not against Hg²⁺. Cell loading with the fluorescent pH probe Lyso Sensor followed by digital imaging showed a rise of lysosomal pH induced by Cd²⁺ and Hg²⁺, while Zn²⁺ prevented the effect of Cd²⁺ and also partially that of Hg²⁺. The different protective effect of Zn²⁺ against Hg²⁺ suggests a dual action of Hg²⁺ on lysosomes, possibly involving both membrane destabilisation and proton pump inhibition. Cell exposure to 17 β-estradiol also caused a reduction of NR retention time, which was synergistic to that of Hg²⁺. This suggests a common pathway between metals and hormone, possibly involving Ca²⁺ signaling. Received: 17 November 1999 / Accepted: 29 June 2000     

Removal of heavy metals from aqueous solutions using activated carbon prepared from Cicer arietinum

Removal of Cu²⁺, Cd²⁺, Pb²⁺, and Zn²⁺ from aqueous solutions by activated carbon prepared from stems and seed hulls of Cicer arietinum, an agricultural solid waste, has been studied. The influence of various parameters, such as pH, contact time, adsorbent dose, and initial concentration of metal ions on removal was evaluated. The activated carbon was characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and elemental analysis. Sorption isotherms were studied using Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. All experimental sorption data were fitted to the sorption models using nonlinear least-squares regression. The maximum adsorption capacity values for activated carbon prepared from Cicer arietinum waste for metal ions were 18 mg g^?1 (Cu²⁺), 18 mg g^?1 (Cd²⁺), 20 mg g^?1 (Pb²⁺), and 20 mg g^?1 (Zn²⁺), respectively. The Freundlich isotherm model fit was best, followed by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Desorption studies were carried out with dilute hydrochloric acid for quantitative recovery of the metal ions and for regeneration of the adsorbent.     

A simple ligandless microextraction method based on ionic liquid for the determination of trace cadmium in water and biological samples

A simple and efficient ionic liquid-based ligandless microextraction method has been developed for preconcentration of cadmium ions (Cd²⁺) as a step prior to its determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) with a micro-sample introduction system. In this approach, the ionic liquid (IL) 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate [C₄mim][PF₆] and ethanol were used as extractant and dispersive solvents to preconcentrate the Cd²⁺ in different waters, acid digested scalp hair, and nail samples. Some analytical parameters influencing the extraction efficiency of Cd²⁺ and its subsequent determination, including pH, IL volume, dispersant solvent volume, sample volume, temperature, incubation time, and matrix effect, were optimized. Under optimal conditions, the limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), and enhancement factor (EF) were 0.4 μg L^?1, 1.3 μg L^?1, and 50, respectively. The relative standard deviation (RSD) of 100 μgL^?1 Cd²⁺ was 4.3% (n = 6). The validity of the proposed method was checked by determining Cd²⁺ in certified reference material (TM-25.3 fortified water) and standard addition; the results showed sufficient recovery (>98%) of Cd²⁺ within the certified value. The method was applied for preconcentration and determination of cadmium in waters and biological samples.     

二元联合作用藻红外测试方法——以重金属为例

为检验二元联合作用藻红外测试方法的可行性,用Cu~(2+)、Fe3+、Mn~(2+)、Al3+、Cr3+、Hg~(2+)、Cd~(2+)、Pb~(2+)、Zn~(2+)进行了二元联合作用测试实验。结果显示:联合药液的参照浓度与单药液的参照浓度比为0.5:0.25的有15组二元组合,为2.0:1.0的有10组二元组合,为1.0:0.5的有11组二元组合;在9种重金属的36组二元联合作用测试结果中出现拮抗作用、相加作用、协同作用,表明联合作用类型表现出多样性;14组拮抗作用中单组的再现性为50%~100%、多组的再现性的出现率为93%、单组的重现性为67%~100%、多组的重现性的出现率为100%,21组相加作用中单组的再现性为50%~100%、多组的再现性的出现率为86%、单组的重现性为67%~100%、多组的重现性的出现率为100%,1组协同作用重现性67%;36组联合作用测试结果的再现性为50%~100%、再现性的出现率为86%,重现性为67%~100%、重现性的出现率为100%。上述分析可知,9种重金属的36种二元联合作用测试结果具有较好的多样性、再现性、重现性,表明测试条件、藻温测试方法、三指标评价法能够保证藻响应温差和藻响应药品评价结果的质量,参照浓度分析方法、联合作用评价方法能够控制联合作用分析结果的质量;藻响应的有毒有害物都存在敏感浓度,用参照浓度分析方法可分析出藻响应有毒有害物的参照浓度。因此,藻红外测试技术可以用于测试重金属、农药、有机药品、抗生素等的二元联合作用。     

Immobilized Lentinus edodes residue as absorbent for the enhancement of cadmium adsorption performance

To investigate the potential use of Lentinus edodes (L. edodes) residue for Cd²⁺ adsorption, poly alcohol Na alginate (PVA) was applied to immobilize it. The parameters including contact time, pH, adsorbent dosages, and coexisting metal ions were studied. The suitable pH for immobilized L. edodes was 4?C7 wider than that for raw L. edodes (pH 6?C7). In the presence of Pb²⁺ concentration varying from 0 to 30 mg·L^?1, the Cd²⁺ adsorption ratios declined by 6.71% and 47.45% for immobilized and raw L. edodes, respectively. While, with the coexisting ion Cu²⁺ concentration varied from 0 to 30 mg·L^?1, the Cd²⁺ adsorption ratios declined by 12.97% and 50.56% for immobilized and raw L. edodes, respectively. The Cd²⁺ adsorption isotherms in single-metal and dual-metal solutions were analyzed by using Langmuir, Freundlich, and Dubinin-Radushkevich models. The Cd²⁺ adsorption capacities (q _m) in single-metal solution were 6.448 mg·L^?1 and 2.832 mg·L^?1 for immobilized and raw L. edodes, respectively. The q _m of immobilized L. edodes were 1.850 mg Cd·g^?1 in Cd²⁺ + Pb²⁺ solution and 3.961 mg Cd·g^?1 in Cd²⁺ + Cu²⁺ solution, respectively. The Cd²⁺ adsorption processes subjected to both adsorbents follow pseudo-second-order model. Mechanism study showed the functional group of L. edodes was -OH, -NH, -CO, and PVA played an important role in metal adsorbing. Mining wastewater treatment test showed that PVA-SA-immobilized L. edodes was effective in mixed pollutant treatment even for wastewater containing metal ions in very low concentration.     

Experimental determination of Cd2+ adsorption mechanism on low-cost biological waste

Carbonate shells have an astonishing ability in the removal of Cd²⁺ in a short time period with emphasis on being a low cost adsorbent. In the present study, the sorption capacity of carbonate shells was studied for Cd²⁺ in batch experiments. The influence of different carbonate shell sizes and physico-chemical factors were evaluated and the results were analyzed for its correlation matrices by using Predictive Analytics Software (PASW). The mineralogy state of aqueous solution regarding the saturation index was simulated using PHREEQC to identify the Cd²⁺ uptake mechanism. The Cd uptake rates were calculated as well as Ca²⁺, HCO ₃ ^? concentration, pH, ambient humidity and temperature were measured. Cd²⁺ removal of 91.52% was achieved after 5 h adsorption. The adsorption efficiencies were significantly influenced by pH as they increased with the increase of pH from acidic solution (5.50±0.02) to slightly alkaline (7.60±0.05). In addition, the mineralogy state of aqueous solution calculated from PHREEQC confirmed that the increment of Ca²⁺ and HCO ₃ ^? concentrations in solution was attributed to the dissolution of carbonate shells. Moreover, the ion exchange adsorption mechanism of Cd²⁺ toward Ca²⁺ was identified as the process involved in Cd²⁺ uptake.
