An evaluative model for lead distribution in roadside ecosystems
No full textIn roadside ecosystems lead concentrations in different environmental materials decrease with the distance from the road, following a typical pattern. A model that expresses this distribution pattern is proposed to evaluate lead contamination in these ecosystems. © 1987
Complementary accumulation of selenium and mercury in fish muscle
No full textThe concentrations of total selenium and total mercury in the muscle of striped mullet from four stations in the Northern Tyrrhenian Sea and one in the Black Sea were analyzed. If the sum of the concentrations of mercury and selenium (expressed as nmoles/g) is plotted against the age of the specimens, a single function describes all of the results. The explanation suggested by the authors is that SeHg receptors exist and increase with the age of the animal. These receptors may be occupied by mercury in proportion to its concentration in the environment. © 1982
