Environmental exposure to metals may adversely affect cardiometabolic health. However, little data are available directly evaluating the roles of metal exposure in blood glucose of which dysfunction has been linked to diabetes. We aimed to evaluate the dose-response associations between fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and multiple urinary metals including nickel, cobalt, copper, zinc, and arsenic, as...
Illegal e-waste recycling activity has caused heavy metal pollution in many developing countries, including China. In recent years, the Chinese government has strengthened enforcement to impede such activity; however, the heavy metals remaining in the abandoned e-waste recycling site can still pose ecological risk. The present study aimed to investigate the concentrations of heavy metals in soil and...
With the modified BCR sequential extraction method, the ultrasonic vibration and microwave digestion techniques were applied to extract heavy metal forms in sewer sediments. Considering the influence of extraction time, temperature, extractant concentration and the digestion types on the extraction efficiency, the optimal testing conditions of sediments pre-treatment were defined. Compared with the...
