Heavy Metals in Soil and Their Impact on Plant Health: A Contamination Study
Abstract: This study investigates heavy metal uptake, tolerance, and sequestration mechanisms in various plants, focusing on crops such as tea, vegetables, and fruit trees that are susceptible to heavy metal contamination. Trace elements in plants, if overabundant, pose toxicity risks by disrupting metabolic and physiological functions. Plants counteract heavy metal complexes by immobilizing them within cell walls or vacuoles or by binding them to organic compounds produced in situ. Elevated levels …

In Vitro Evaluation of Bioremediation Capacity of a Commercial Probiotic, Bacillus clausii, for Chromium (VI) and Lead (II) Toxicity
Abstract: Heavy metals cause disastrous effects on any living organisms. Probiotics have the ability to reduce metal toxicity. Commercial probiotics having bioremediation capacity can use these bacteria as an alternative to conventional remediation methods. The bioaccumulation of heavy metals including chromium (VI) (Cr [VI]) and lead (II) (Pb [II]) causes fatal toxicity in humans. Some naturally occurring bacterial species, such as Bacillus and Pseudomonas, contribute their role in bioremediation of these …
