砷-硒交互作用对水稻吸收转运砷和硒的影响

采用溶液培养法,研究了两种形态无机As与四价Se交互作用对水稻吸收转运As和Se的影响.结果表明,不同形态As与Se交互作用对水稻吸收转运As和Se影响较大,Se(Ⅳ)显著地提高水稻根系而降低水稻茎叶对As的吸收积累.与对照处理相比,在1.0μmol·L-1As(Ⅲ)和As(Ⅴ)处理下添加1.0μmol·L-1Se(Ⅳ)分别导致水稻根系As含量提高59.5%和21.3%,而水稻茎叶As浓度减少10.4%和21.9%.As(Ⅲ)或As(Ⅴ)处理显著降低水稻茎叶对Se的吸收积累,但As(Ⅴ)处理对水稻根系积累Se没有影响.在1.0μmol·L-1Se(Ⅳ)处理下,添加1.0μmol·L-1As(Ⅲ)和1.0μmol·L-1As(Ⅴ)导致水稻茎叶Se浓度分别比对照处理降低41.9%和30.3%.Se(Ⅳ)与As(Ⅲ)或As(Ⅴ)对水稻转运As、Se的能力具有交互拮抗作用.研究结果表明,在As污染农田中,可通过施用Se肥来提高植物的Se营养,降低植物对As的吸收积累,从而降低As对人体健康的危害.     

根表铁膜对水稻铅吸收转运的影响

通过温室土壤盆栽试验研究不同生育期水稻根表铁膜形成对水稻吸收和转运Pb的影响。结果表明,两种水稻根表铁膜形成量(以DCB-Fe含量计)及铁膜中吸附的Pb量均随着生育期的延长而减少。水稻根表铁膜Fe含量与铁膜吸附的Pb量呈显著的正相关关系(r=0.798,p0.01)。水稻根系和茎叶吸收积累Pb随着不同品种和不同生育期而变化。品种NK57籽粒Pb含量显著高于品种YD6,前者为后者的1.9倍。从富集系数和分配比率来看,Pb主要富集在水稻的铁膜和根系中,而积累在茎叶和籽粒中的比率较少。Pb从水稻根表铁膜、根系和茎叶向籽粒中的转运系数在两个水稻品种间差异均不显著。水稻分蘖期和孕穗期根表铁膜量与根系Pb含量均呈显著的正相关关系(p0.05),但是成熟期水稻根表铁膜量与根系、茎叶和籽粒中Pb含量相关性均不显著,说明根表铁膜形成对水稻分蘖期和孕穗期吸收积累Pb有一定影响,但对水稻成熟期根系、茎叶和籽粒吸收积累Pb影响不大。     

砷污染土壤中不同基因型水稻根表铁膜的形成及其对砷吸收和转运影响

采用土壤盆栽试验法,研究6个不同基因型水稻品种根表铁膜形成及其对As吸收、转运的影响。结果表明,水稻形成根表铁膜在不同基因型品种之间差异显著（p<0.001）,其中品种94D-22形成铁膜量（以Fe含量计）是品种圭630的1.5~1.8倍,添加As处理对水稻根表铁膜形成影响不显著。低As含量的对照土壤中,水稻根表铁膜量与根系As含量存在着显著的正相关关系（r=0.657,n=24,p<0.01）,与As转移系数呈显著的负相关关系(r=-0.612,n=24,p<0.01）。土壤添加As后,水稻根表铁膜量与茎叶As含量存在显著的正相关关系（r=0.653-0.673,n=24,p<0.01）,与As转运之间无显著相关性。比较生长于As污染土壤的不同水稻品种,科优1360茎叶积累As较少,且其根系转运As能力也较差,而品种94D-22正好相反。研究结果表明,在As含量较低的土壤中,水稻根表铁膜的存在可成为根系As的障碍层,阻止As向地上部转运;但在As含量较高的土壤,根表铁膜的存在却促进了水稻茎叶对As的积累,其对As的转运没有显著影响。人们可通过作物品种筛选来防治土壤As污染危害、降低As对人体健康的威胁。     

根表铁膜对水稻吸收转运稀土元素Ce的影响

采用溶液培养的方法探讨根表铁膜形成对水稻吸收积累和转运稀土元素Ce的影响。结果表明,Ce污染胁迫可抑制水稻根表铁膜的形成,根表铁膜吸附的Ce量随着溶液中Ce浓度的提高而增加。根表铁膜形成可降低水稻根系但提高水稻茎叶对Ce的吸收积累。当溶液中Ce浓度为0.1、0.5和1.0 mmol·L~(-1)时,铁膜诱导组水稻根系Ce含量分别比非诱导组水稻根系Ce含量降低38.60%、45.94%和32.75%,诱导组水稻茎叶Ce含量分别比非诱导组水稻茎叶Ce含量提高42.37%、28.87%和22.62%。根表铁膜形成可影响Ce在水稻植株中的富集和转运能力。非诱导组水稻根系富集Ce的能力远大于茎叶。诱导组水稻根系对Ce的富集能力最强,其次是根表铁膜,最后是水稻茎叶。诱导组水稻根系Ce转运系数显著大于非诱导组的根系,说明根表铁膜形成可促进水稻根部Ce向茎叶中转运。可见,根表铁膜对水稻吸收转运稀土元素的影响机理比较复杂。     

水稻根表铁膜对水稻根吸收铅的影响

采用土-砂联合培养方法诱导水稻根表形成不同数量的铁膜:高铁膜(HP)和低铁膜(LP),探讨铁膜形成的多少对水稻离体根系吸收铅的影响.结果表明,在水稻生长期间,水分显著影响根表形成铁膜的数量.水稻吸收的铅大部分结合在根组织中(平均75%),少部分富集在根表铁膜中(平均25%).与低铁膜相比,高铁膜可以增强铅在水稻根表铁膜和根中的积累,由此可见,铁膜可能在一定程度上促进铅向水稻根内的转运.     

根表铁锰膜对不同生育期水稻吸收和转运As的影响

采用土壤盆栽试验法,研究不同生育期水稻根表铁锰膜形成及其对As吸收和转运的影响。结果表明,两个水稻品种YD6和NK57均在分蘖期形成的铁锰膜量最多,成熟期形成的铁锰膜量最少。水稻根系和茎叶吸收积累As随着水稻不同品种和不同生育期变化较大,As的吸收和积累与铁锰膜形成存在相关性。与分蘖期相比,YD6和NK57成熟期根系As含量分别减少81.6%和62.1%。孕穗期YD6和NK57茎叶As含量分别比分蘖期减少86.4%和65.5%,比成熟期减少87.8%和67.1%。分蘖期水稻根系和茎叶As含量与DCB-Fe或DCB-Mn浓度均呈显著的负相关关系,而孕穗期水稻根系和茎叶As含量与DCB-Fe浓度呈显著的正相关关系,说明不同生育期铁锰膜对水稻植株吸收和转运As的影响不同。两个水稻品种不同生育期,As均主要富集和分配在根表铁锰膜中,铁锰膜中As的分配比率达62.9%～84.9%。NK57从根表铁锰膜、根系和茎叶向籽粒转运As的能力比YD6强,籽粒中As含量是YD6的2.1倍。结果表明可以通过选育As低积累和低转运的水稻品种,来降低污染地区As对人体健康的威胁。     

根表铁膜对凤眼莲吸收环丙沙星的影响

为探讨铁离子不同浓度处理下水生植物根表铁膜形成及其对环丙沙星(ciprofloxacin,CIP)吸收的影响,采用室内模拟试验,分析0.1 mg·L-1 CIP胁迫下不同浓度铁离子(0、10、20、50、100和150 mg·L-1)对凤眼莲根系生理生化及CIP富集量的影响.结果 表明,不同浓度铁离子对凤眼莲根系孔隙度和泌氧量无显著影响,而根系活力随着铁离子浓度增加呈上升趋势;铁离子促进凤眼莲根表铁膜形成,150 mg·L-1铁离子处理下凤眼莲根表铁膜量最大,且根表吸附CIP含量最多,而根系中吸收CIP含量显著降低.铁离子对凤眼莲根系生理生化无显著影响,而有利于凤眼莲根表铁膜量增加,促进根系表面CIP的吸附作用,阻碍根系对CIP的吸收作用,降低CIP对植物造成的伤害.     

两种通气组织不同的水稻品种根表铁膜的形成及砷吸收积累的差异（Differences of Iron Plaque Formation and As Accumulation between Two Rice Cultivars with Different Aerenchyma Tissue）

采用土壤盆栽试验方法,比较了两种通气组织结构不同的水稻品种(扬稻6号和农垦57)根表铁膜的形成及其吸收积累As的差异.结果表明,通气组织结构不同对水稻根表铁膜的形成及其对As的吸收积累有显著影响.通气组织结构发达的扬稻6号根表铁膜数量和铁膜中As含量均显著高于农垦57,扬稻6号根表铁膜量为431.53g·kg-1,铁膜中As含量达到220.2mg·kg-1,分别是农垦57的1.3和1.7倍.发达的通气组织结构显著抑制了As由水稻地下部到地上部的转运以及地上部对As的吸收:扬稻6号地上部As含量为10.77mg·kg-1,显著低于农垦57(12.85mg·kg-1);扬稻6号对As的转移系数(TF)为0.067,仅为农垦57的73.6%.     

砷胁迫下外源磷对香蒲根表铁膜形成及吸附砷的影响

云南地处高原地区拥有数目众多的湿地且面临着富营养化与砷(As)污染双重风险。为了探究在不同外源磷(P)输入下典型湿地挺水植物香蒲(Typha angustifolia L.)在不同生长时期根表铁膜的生成量及对环境中As的吸附规律,为As污染湿地植物修复提供参考依据。设置低磷(0.2 mg·L~(-1))和高磷(2 mg·L~(-1))两组P质量浓度梯度和0、2、10 mg·L~(-1) 3组As质量浓度梯度,通过水培的方式研究在As胁迫环境下外源P浓度对典型湿地挺水植物香蒲整个生长周期内根表铁膜生成及其吸附As能力的变化规律。在不同的生长时期和不同As浓度下香蒲根表铁膜生成量均有显著差异。(1)不同的生长时期根表铁膜的生成量是一个动态的变化过程,其中生长期的生成量最多分别为296.83、1 176.63mg·kg~(-1);1 558.23、886.13mg·kg~(-1);2 411.57、799.44 mg·kg~(-1)。(2)外源P的浓度是影响根表铁膜生成量的一个重要因素,表现为高浓度抑制低浓度促进。(3)根表铁膜对于环境中As的吸附能力受到多种因素的影响。在该研究中,不同生长时期和不同外源P浓度是两个重要的因素,其中吸附能力最强的为As质量浓度为10mg·L~(-1)、P质量浓度为2mg·L~(-1)的繁殖期,此时的As/Fe为16.47。结果表明在不同外源P浓度下不同生长阶段根表铁膜的生成量的规律均为生长期繁殖期枯落期,且根表铁膜对于As的吸收规律在不同生长阶段的结果与生成量的规律一致。该实验研究结果对受As污染的湿地在面临富营养化威胁的情况下选取合适的植物品种与修复方式具有一定的理论和现实意义。     

不同施肥处理对水稻根表铁和砷形态的影响

采用XAFS研究盆栽试验砷污染土壤中添加不同肥料后,苗期水稻根表铁膜和砷的矿物学特征.Fe的K边EXAFS谱表明,铁膜主要由2-line水铁矿组成,还有少部分针铁矿和赤铁矿等晶体矿;As的EXAFS谱显示,除了KNO3和K2SO4处理外,其余处理的铁膜中砷以三价砷为主.KNO3处理显著减少了水稻根表铁膜的形成,而且抑制了水稻对砷的吸收.不同的肥料可以影响铁膜中砷的存在形态.     

Spatial pattern of arsenic and lead distributions in Jamaican soils

The spatial patterns of arsenic and lead distribution in Jamaican soils were studied using the Geographical Resources Analysis Support System (GRASS) and data from an island wide soil survey. Arsenic and lead were analysed by instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) and energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) techniques. The frequency distribution of each element is discussed in relation to major lithological groups. The As-Pb background levels for different areas in Jamaica were estimated.     

污染土壤中铅、砷的生物可给性研究进展

土壤铅、砷污染已成为重要的环境问题,并可对人体健康造成严重危害。对食物链途径的有效控制使得从口部无意摄入的土壤铅、砷对人体,特别是对儿童铅、砷摄入总量的贡献率越来越大,甚至成为主要来源。土壤中铅、砷直接进入人体的消化系统并可被人体胃肠道溶解出的部分称为其生物可给性。有效、准确地判定土壤中铅、砷的生物可给性已经成为解决儿童铅、砷中毒的关键科学问题。因此,有关土壤中铅、砷的生物可给性及其在人体健康风险评价中的应用受到了越来越多的关注。文章综述了污染土壤中铅、砷生物可给性的研究方法及各方法的优缺点,并从土壤性质、模拟胃肠条件等方面分析了影响土壤中铅、砷生物可给性的主要因素和存在的问题,还进一步论述了土壤中铅、砷生物可给性在人体健康风险评价中的应用。最后,提出了今后该领域应重点加强土壤铅、砷生物可给性的标准参考物、模拟胃肠条件的优化以及土壤铅、砷生物可给性在人体健康风险评价中的应用等方面的研究。以期充分发挥铅、砷等环境污染物的生物可给性研究方法的潜力,更好地为控制土壤污染、保护人类健康服务。     

Contamination status of arsenic,lead, and cadmium of different wetland waters

The present investigation was conducted to determine the contamination status of arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), and lead (Pb) in the wetland waters of Bhaluka in Bangladesh. Water samples were collected from 15 selected wetlands of Bhaluka region and analyzed using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Estimated results of three metals detected were As (7–80?µg?L^?1), Pb (0–86?µg?L^?1) and Cd (0–70?µg?L^?1) in water samples in all wetlands. The level of As in all investigated wetlands (93%) was higher than that of WHO recommended permissible limit of drinking water except Alanga wetland. However, As levels were higher than that recommended for livestock water quality levels. Eighty-seven percent of the investigated wetlands showed lower content of Pb than WHO recommended permissible limit of drinking water, but two wetland waters (Dohuria-1 and Chowdhuri) were polluted with higher Pb levels. Sixty-seven percent of the investigated wetlands displayed higher levels of Cd than WHO recommended permissible limit in drinking water. Dissolved organic material showed no significant difference among the 15 investigated wetlands water, but total dissolved solids was significantly greater. The condition of the water of all wetlands was basic pH. All water samples were applied to linear regression equation and correlation coefficients where values showed no significant differences. Data demonstrate that the estimated high metal concentrations of these ponds may contribute to bioaccumulation within plants, food grains and shrimp.     

Interaction effects of lead on bioavailability and pharmacokinetics of arsenic in the rat

Arsenic (As) and lead (Pb) are common contaminants found in mine waste materials. For an evidence-based risk assessment, it is important to better understand the potential interaction of mixed contaminants; and this interaction study was investigated in an in vivo rat model. Following co-administration of a fixed dose of As^V as in sodium arsenate and different doses of Pb as lead acetate to Sprague–Dawley rats, blood arsenic concentration and bioavailability decreased. A decrease in As blood concentration when lead was co-administered was observed with increasing lead doses. Pharmacokinetic parameters for As in the blood showed faster absorption and elimination of this metalloid in the presence of Pb. The elimination half-life of As decreased from 67 days in As solo group to 27–30 with doses of Pb. Bioavailability of As was also decreased by 30–43 % in the presence of Pb. Decreased urinary excretion of Pb and tissue accumulation were also observed. It indicates lower absorption of As when co-administered with Pb. A probable explanation for these findings is that As co-administration with Pb could have resulted in the formation of less soluble lead arsenate. However, such an interaction between As and Pb could only explain about one-third of the variation when real mine waste materials containing both of these elements were administered to rats. This suggests that other effects from physical and chemical parameters could contribute to the bioavailability of arsenic in complex real environmental samples.     

重点源大气砷铅污染排放模型及特征

在我国的非常规性污染物质中,大气重金属砷、铅已越来越多地被关注和重视。文章综述了国内外人为源对大气中重金属排放的贡献,结果显示中国是全球人为活动向大气排放重金属最多的国家之一,燃煤和有色金属冶炼行业在相当长的时间内都将是最主要且最为重要的人为排放源。通过系统调研燃煤及有色金属冶炼业资源及产业布局状况,构建目前我国大气重金属相关清单模型,进行了我国重点源大气砷、铅排放清单分析,结果表明：（1）2000-2008年我国燃煤大气砷、铅排放量共为93733t,年均增长率为7．93％,2004-2008年有色金属冶炼业大气砷、铅排放量共为18836t,年均增长率为15．2％;（2）2000-2008年各经济部门中电力部门燃煤大气砷、铅放量始终最高,占燃煤大气排放总量的44．6％-57．1％,且呈逐年升高的趋势;（3）2000-2008年各省区中山西、河北、河南和湖南省是大气砷、铅的排放大户。其中,燃煤大气砷、铅排放量主要集中在人口密集、工业集中、经济发展速度较快的北部和中东部省区,包括山西、山东、河北、河南和江苏五省,占全国燃煤排放总量的39．1％,有色金属冶炼大气砷、铅排放量主要集中在我国有色金属工业较为发达的河南及湖南省,占全国有色金属冶炼业排放总量的47．3％。可以看出,我国需要高度重视大气重金属砷、铅的污染防治,加强排放控制基础能力建设,加快建立适合中国的大气砷、铅污染防治技术政策体系。     

Unrevealing arsenic and lead toxicity and antioxidant response in spinach: a human health perspective

Assessment of bioaccessibility and exposure risk of arsenic and lead in urban soils of Guangzhou City,China

Soil ingestion is an important human exposure pathway of heavy metals in urban environments with heavy metal contaminated soils. This study aims to assess potential health risks of heavy metals in soils sampled from an urban environment where high frequency of human exposure may be present. A bioaccessibility test is used, which is an in vitro gastrointestinal (IVG) test of soluble metals under simulated physiological conditions of the human digestion system. Soil samples for assessing the oral bioaccessibility of arsenic (As) and lead (Pb) were collected from a diverse range of different land uses, including urban parks, roadsides, industrial sites and residential areas in Guangzhou City, China. The soil samples contained a wide range of total As (10.2 to 61.0 mg kg⁻¹) and Pb (38.4 to 348 mg kg⁻¹) concentrations. The bioaccessibility of As and Pb in the soil samples were 11.3 and 39.1% in the stomach phase, and 1.9 and 6.9% in the intestinal phase, respectively. The As and Pb bioaccessibility in the small intestinal phase was significantly lower than those in the gastric phase. Arsenic bioaccessibility was closely influenced by soil pH and organic matter content (r ² = 0.451, p < 0.01) in the stomach phase, and by organic matter, silt and total As contents (r ² = 0.604, p < 0.001) in the intestinal phase. The general risk of As and Pb intake for children from incidental ingestion of soils is low, compared to their maximum doses, without causing negative human health effects. The exposure risk of Pb in the soils ranked in the order of: industrial area/urban parks > residential area/road side. Although the risk of heavy metal exposure from direct ingestion of urban soils is relatively low, the risk of inhalation of fine soil particulates in the air remains to be evaluated.     

Hair burning and liming in tanneries is a source of pollution by arsenic,lead, zinc,manganese and iron

Heavy metals in the environment may be toxic for human and animals. Tanneries are a source of pollution by heavy metals. There is little information on heavy metals pollution in tanneries, especially on metals produced by the process of hair burning and liming. Liming is the first stage of chemical treatment where animal hair or wool is removed with sodium sulphide and calcium oxide. Here we studied cow, goat, buffalo and sheep hair, conventional liming agents and liming wastewaters from several sources. Samples were acid-digested and aliquots were analysed by atomic absorption spectroscopy following APHA standard method to measure concentrations of arsenic, lead, cadmium, zinc, manganese and iron. Results show that the range of metal contents in hair or wool and liming agents are 1.3–8.2 mg/kg for arsenic, 0.02–21.8 mg/kg for lead, 17.7–121.0 mg/kg for manganese, 7.3–141.1 mg/kg for zinc and 119.6–10613.8 mg/kg for iron. Liming wastewaters contain 1.9–5.6 µg/L arsenic, 0.03–6.05 µg/L lead, 38.6–139.0 µg/L manganese, 144.0–171.5 µg/L zinc and 399.5–1069.0 µg/L iron. Cadmium was below detection limits. This is the first investigation that reveals that hair burning liming operation is a potential source of heavy metals in the environment.     

Pollution characteristics of lead,zinc, arsenic,and cadmium in short-term storm water roof runoff in a suburban area

Pollution of hazardous elements in roof runoff has been a potential danger to aquatic ecosystem as documented in previous studies. In this study, concentrations of lead (Pb), zinc (Zn), arsenic (As), and cadmium (Cd) in roof runoff were measured for short-term rainfall events. The concentrations of the selected elements varied to a high degree during the rainfall period, and the well-known first-flush phenomenon was not observed due to the short-term rainfall patterns. Based on event mean concentrations (EMCs) and fluxes, the elemental pollution may be ranked as Zn >> Pb > As > Cd. The average levels of Pb and Zn exceeded the fourth class value and fifth class value of the environmental quality standards for surface water in China. The relative high pollution could be caused by atmospheric deposition and the erosion of crust steel appurtenance installed above the rooftop. Furthermore, elements in particulate form dominated the roof runoff pollution, and the ratios of elements in particulate form to total amounts were 0.6 (As), 0.9 (Pb), 0.7 (Cd), and 0.5 (Zn). This study cleared the pollution characteristics of hazardous elements in short-term storm water roof runoff; it was useful for the selection of best management practices.     

Metal fractionation of cadmium, lead and arsenic of geogenic origin in topsoils from the Marrancos gold mineralisation, northern Portugal

The Marrancos gold mineralisation has a chemical assemblage of Fe–As–Se–Bi–Au–Ag–Te–(Cu–Pb–Zn–Sn–W). The −200 mesh of 144 topsoil samples was analysed by ICP–MS to determine total contents of 53 elements that include potentially harmful elements like Cd, As and Pb. The soil geochemistry shows that some trace elements occur in considerably high concentrations. On the basis of data for total metal concentrations, 10 topsoil samples were selected to carry out a metal fractionation study using a selective extraction method. A set of four leaches of increasing strength was used sequentially in the soil samples. Across the study area, there is some evidence of past mining and exploration activity, indicating that these soils may be locally disturbed. The shallow mineralised quartz veins were exploited for gold by the Romans. Several galleries were constructed during the 2nd World War, probably for the exploration of quartz–cassiterite–wolframite veins. However, the main mineralised body in depth was never explored. The results of metal fractionation show different partitions for the three elements. Total Cd concentrations in these soils are low, with a median value of 0.1 mg/kg. In average, 12% of total Cd is adsorbed by clays and/or co-precipitated with carbonates, and 19% is bounded to Fe–Mn oxyhydroxides. However, the low concentrations indicate that the metal does not represent an immediate risk to human health. For Pb, metal fractionation shows that, on average, 22% of Pb is adsorbed by amorphous Fe and Mn oxides, but the samples from the northern part of the area have the major fractions of Pb in soluble forms. The low probability of exposure in this part of the study area decreases the risk posed by this heavy metal. Total As concentrations in the Marrancos soils are extremely high. A large area has As concentrations above 1,000 mg/kg. For As, metal fractions in the sulphide phase vary between 84 and 98% in the studied samples. But one sample has 20% of total As in easily reducible forms, corresponding to a partial concentration of 1,800 mg/kg that has a high probability of being bioavailable. The most labile As forms occur at the southern part of the area, where the probability of exposure is higher and the risk of human health increases in the same order. From the three studied potentially harmful elements, As is certainly the element of concern.
