Typha latifolia is a plant species widely used for phytoremediation. Accumulation, localization and distribution of Pb and mineral nutrients were investigated in roots, rhizomes and leaves of Typha latifolia grown at 0, 50, 100 and 250 μM Pb concentrations in a pot experiment under controlled conditions. Bulk elemental concentrations were determined by X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy whereas micro-proton-induced X-ray emission (micro-PIXE) was used for element localization in root and rhizome tissues. Gradual increase in bulk Pb concentrations was observed in Typha latifolia roots and rhizomes treated with increasing Pb concentrations, however in rhizomes Pb concentrations were an order of magnitude lower than in roots. In leaves Pb concentrations were around the limit of detection for XRF (~20 μg g(-1)). An increase in concentration of K and Ca in roots, rhizomes and leaves, of iron and zinc in roots and leaves, and of Mn in rhizomes was observed either at 50 and/or 100 μM Pb treatments, whereas for K and Ca in roots, rhizomes and leaves, Fe and Zn in roots and leaves and Mn in rhizomes, or at 250 μM Pb treatment the increase was seen for concentrations of Fe and Zn in rhizomes and Cu in roots. Mn concentrations decreased with Pb treatments in roots and leaves. Element localization using micro-PIXE analysis demonstrated Pb accumulation in epidermal and cortical tissues of treated roots and rhizomes, while in endodermis and vascular tissues Pb was not detected. A displacement of Ca from epidermal to cortical tissues was observed in Pb treated roots and rhizomes, pointing to cell wall immobilization of Pb as one of the tolerance mechanisms in Typha latifolia. High level of colocalization of Pb with P (r = 0.60), S (r = 0.37) and Zn (r = 0.70) was observed in Pb treated roots, while in rhizomes colocalization with the mentioned elements was still positive, but not that prominent. These results indicate that Pb may form complexes with phosphorus and sulfur compounds in roots and rhizomes, which may also represent attraction sites for binding Zn. Because of its large root and rhizome surface area acting as main sites for Pb adsorption, Typha latifolia may represent potentially efficient plant species for phytoremediation of Pb contaminated soils and waters. 相似文献

Zinc is an essential trace element in humans. Zinc deficiency can result in a range of serious medical conditions which include effects on growth and development, the immune system, the central nervous system, and the gastrointestinal system. Diagnosis of zinc deficiency is often precluded by the lack of a noninvasive and reliable biomarker. Zinc concentration in nail is considered an emerging biomarker of zinc status in humans. Whether zinc in nail accurately reflects zinc status is beyond the scope of the current study, but is an important research question. The development of a portable method to quickly assess zinc concentration from a single nail clipping could be a useful advance. In this study, single toenail clippings from 60 individuals living in Atlantic Canada were measured for zinc using a portable X-ray fluorescence (XRF) technique. These samples were obtained from the Atlantic PATH cohort, part of the largest chronic disease study ever performed in Canada. Each toenail clipping was measured using three 300 s trials with a mono-energetic portable XRF system. Results were then assessed using two different approaches to the XRF analysis: (1) factory-calibrated zinc concentrations were output from each trial, and (2) energy spectra were analyzed for the characteristic X-rays resulting from zinc. Following the measurement of zinc using the non-destructive portable XRF method, the same clippings were measured for zinc concentration using the “gold standard” technique of inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). A linear equation of best fit was determined for the relationship between average XRF output zinc concentration and ICP-MS zinc concentration, with a correlation coefficient r = 0.60. Similarly, a linear equation of best fit was found for the relationship between a normalized XRF energy spectrum zinc signal and ICP-MS zinc concentration, with a correlation coefficient r = 0.68. Individual ICP-MS zinc concentrations ranged from 32 μg/g to 140 μg/g, with a population average of 85 μg/g. The results of this study indicate that portable XRF is a sensitive method for the measurement of zinc in a single nail clipping, and provides a reasonable estimation of zinc concentration. Further method development is required before portable XRF be considered a routine alternative to ICP-MS for the assessment of zinc in nail clippings. 相似文献

BackgroundNovel and emerging biomarkers of zinc status are being developed to help study and address zinc deficiency around the world. Two potential biomarkers, nail and hair, involve the measurement of zinc from easily accessible keratin-based components of the body. Portable X-ray fluorescence (XRF) is a relatively new approach to the assessment of zinc in nail or hair, and has a number of compelling advantages compared with other techniques. The aim of the current study was to test the ability of XRF to measure zinc in keratinized reference materials (RMs) designed to simulate nail and hair.MethodsFour Keratin Matrix RMs were prepared and characterized for numerous trace elements by the New York State Department of Health’s Wadsworth Center. The Keratin Matrix RMs consisted of powdered samples of caprine (goat) horns pooled from several animals. Concentrations of zinc, as assessed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), were similar to what would be expected from human nail or hair tissues. Repeat measurements of the RMs were made using a portable XRF system. The XRF zinc results were compared with the ICP-MS zinc concentrations. Three different approaches to quantifying the zinc content by XRF were performed: (1) zinc signal to total signal ratio, (2) zinc signal to sulfur signal ratio, and (3) system output zinc concentration.ResultsThe portable XRF results from a given RM were found to be consistent across repeat trials under all three approaches to XRF quantitation. Precision, calculated as the relative standard deviation of repeat measurements ranged from an average result of 0.8 % (using the system output zinc concentration method) to 6.1 % (using the zinc signal to sulfur signal ratio method). Measurement of the RMs provided XRF zinc results which scaled well with ICP-MS zinc concentration, particularly when using the XRF zinc to total and system zinc concentration methods. A Bland-Altman plot showed that the XRF system zinc concentration output exceeded the ICP-MS zinc concentration by, on average, 10.2 % ± 1.2 %.ConclusionOverall, both accuracy and precision of measurement were found to be promising for portable XRF, provided appropriate conversions to concentration are introduced. The results of this study indicate that portable XRF is an effective and dependable method of assessing zinc concentration in keratinized tissue RMs. This will have implications for the future use of portable XRF to monitor zinc status in humans through measurements of nail and hair. 相似文献

Workers decommissioning the Fukushima-Daiichi nuclear power plant damaged from the Great East Japan Earthquake and resulting tsunami are at risk of injury with possible contamination from radioactive heavy atoms including actinides, such as plutonium. We propose a new methodology for on-site and rapid evaluation of heavy-atom contamination in wounds using a portable X-ray fluorescence (XRF) device. In the present study, stable lead was used as the model contaminant substitute for radioactive heavy atoms. First, the wound model was developed by placing a liquid blood phantom on an epoxy resin wound phantom contaminated with lead. Next, the correlation between the concentration of contaminant and the XRF peak intensity was formulated considering the thickness of blood exiting the wound. Methods to determine the minimum detection limit (MDL) of contaminants at any maximal equivalent dose to the wound by XRF measurement were also established. For example, in this system, at a maximal equivalent dose of 16.5 mSv to the wound and blood thickness of 0.5 mm, the MDL value for lead was 1.2 ppm (3.1 nmol). The radioactivity of 239Pu corresponding to 3.1 nmol is 1.7 kBq, which is lower than the radioactivity of 239Pu contaminating puncture wounds in previous severe accidents. In conclusion, the established methodology could be beneficial for future development of a method to evaluate plutonium contamination in wounds. Highlights: Methodology for evaluation of heavy-atom contamination in a wound was established. A portable X-ray fluorescence device enables on-site, rapid and direct evaluation. This method is expected to be used for evaluation of plutonium contamination in wounds. 相似文献

Background and objective: Toenail is an advantageous biomarker to assess exposure to metals such as manganese and mercury. Toenail Mn and Hg are in general analyzed by chemical methods such as inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and atomic absorption spectrophotometry. In this project, a practical and convenient technology—portable X-ray florescence (XRF)—is studied for the noninvasive in vivo quantification of manganese and mercury in toenail.Material and methods: The portable XRF method has advantages in that it does not require toenail clipping and it can be done in 3?min, which will greatly benefit human studies involving the assessment of manganese and mercury exposures. This study mainly focused on the methodology development and validation which includes spectral analysis, system calibration, the effect of toenail thickness, and the detection limit of the system. Manganese- and mercury-doped toenail phantoms were made. Calibration lines were established for these measurements.Results: The results show that the detection limit for manganese is 3.65?μg/g (ppm) and for mercury is 0.55?μg/g (ppm) using 1?mm thick nail phantoms with 10?mm soft tissue underneath.Discussion and conclusion: We conclude that portable XRF is a valuable and sensitive technology to quantify toenail manganese and mercury in vivo. 相似文献

We present a mosquito marking technique suitable for mark-release-recapture that can be used with a hand-held, portable X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometer, which is practical for field measurements. Third instar Anopheles gambiae Giles sensu stricto (Diptera: Culicidae) and Anopheles stephensi Liston larvae were cultured to pupation in water containing rubidium (Rb) Cl at concentrations up to 1000 p.p.m. Rb. Anopheles gambiae larvae survived to adulthood at concentrations as high as 1000 p.p.m. Rb but suffered pupal mortality and reduced adult longevity at high concentrations. We were able to culture An. stephensi at Rb concentrations as high as 300 p.p.m. The presence of Rb in adults was evaluated using a portable XRF analyser, and we were able to reliably detect Rb above background levels in 10-day-old females and 4-day-old males at concentrations causing minimal pupal or adult mortality. We observed that Rb marking was not permanent, and the concentration declined significantly as adults aged. The low cost of labelling with RbCl and the field portability of the spectrometer provide a useful means for labelling mosquitoes via breeding sites or in the laboratory for mark-release-recapture experiments. 相似文献

Cyanobacteria have been found to be potential biosorbents of metal ions from waste water. The Pb(2+) removal capacity of growing cells of indigenous cyanobacterium Oscillatoria laete-virens (Crouan and Crouan) Gomont was studied under batch experiments and it was found capable of removing Pb(2+) of lower concentrations (below 100?mg L(-1)). The effects of different concentrations of Pb(2+), on the growth rate of alga were also evaluated. The research parameters include the pH of the solution, contact time, initial concentration of Pb(2+), and culture density. Of the parameters studied, the pH of the solution was found to be the most crucial. The removal of Pb(2+) peaked at an initial pH of 5. The data obtained from the equilibrium experiments were found well fitting with the Langmuir isotherm with a maximum sorptive capacity (q (max)) of 20.36?mg?g(-1), indicating a good biosorbtive potential of growing cells. This was confirmed using scanning electron microscope and energy dispersive X-ray analysis, which showed the adsorption of lead on the surface of the cell. The species could tolerate a concentration as high as 60?mg L(-1) of Pb(2+). It was observed that the removal obeyed the pseudo-second-order kinetics. The percentage removal was found to decrease with increasing metal concentration, from 10 to 100?mg L(-1). FTIR analysis indicates the involvement of amino, carboxylic and amide groups in the sorption process. Among the desorbing agents evaluated, an efficient recovery of 90.2?% was achieved by HCl, in 24?h. Thus Oscillatoria laete-virens (Crouan and Crouan) Gomont seems to be a promising metal biosorbent for the treatment of Pb(2+), in waste waters. 相似文献

Biological monitoring,by in vivo XRF measurements,of occupational exposure to lead,cadmium, and mercury 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

In vivo X-ray fluorescence (XRF) techniques were used for biological monitoring of lead, cadmium, and mercury. Lead accumulates
in bone, the level of which may thus be used for monitoring of exposure. However, there was no close association between lead
levels in bone and exposure time, partly because of differences in exposure patterns and partly, probably, because of variations
in the toxicokinetics of lead. There are at least two separate bone lead compartments. The average over-all half-time is probably
5–10 yr. The finger bone level may be an index of the lead status of the total skeleton. In lead workers, the mobilization
of bone lead causes an “internal” lead exposure and affects the blood lead level considerably. In cadmium workers, in vivo
XRF is a sensitive and risk-free method for assessment of accumulation in kidney cortex, the critical tissue as to toxic effects;
workers displayed increased levels. However, there was no clear association with duration and intensity of exposure, cadmium
levels in urine, or microglobulinuria. Determinations of kidney cadmium may add important information on the state of accumulation
and, thus, risk of kidney damage. Workers exposed to elemental mercury vapor, as well as fishermen exposed to methyl mercury,
had mercury levels in bone below the detection limit of the XRF method. 相似文献

AbstractEnd of life waste Lead (Pb) acid batteries are one of the largest sources of secondary lead production globally. Recycling lead by melting down used batteries is a commercial trade all over the world; but, regrettably, reprocessing lead from end of life batteries is reported for anthropogenic lead exposures causing harsh human health consequence and environmental pollution. The current research intends to isolate and identify Lead (Pb) solubilizing bacteria from automobile waste deposits from Agartala city in Tripura state of India. Scanning Electron Microscope equipped with energy-dispersive X-ray characterization of the grounded lead sample was carried out, and the micrographs demonstrated scattered structures across the matrix. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectrum indicates the presence of Lead Oxide (PbO), Lead dioxide (PbO2), and Lead sulfate (PbSO4) in the collected samples. A single bacterium viewing observable growth on Pb supplemented plates was isolated and its Pb recovering capability was estimated through ICP AES analysis. Molecular characterization of the bacterium was investigated using 16S rRNA sequencing along with isolated culture was taxonomically grouped as Cupriavidus sp. The genomic DNA sequences were submitted in NCBI GenBank with the accession number MG171197. In the present case of inspection, the ability of the bacterial strain to recover Pb from end life battery waste was carried out in laboratory scale on a shake flask for 20?days. The experiment conducted under optimum bioleaching parameters with initial pH 6, 5% w/v of microbial culture, 2% pulp density and 2?g/100?mL dextrose concentration at 30?°C temperature with a speed of 200?RPM resulted in 67% Pb recovery from the battery sample. This investigation emphasizes the significance of Pb recycling ability of native bacterial isolate for efficient Pb bio-recovery from end of life waste batteries. 相似文献

Human bone lead content has been demonstrated to be related to socioeconomic status, occupation and other social and environmental correlates. Skeletal tissue samples from 135 individuals from an early nineteenth century Philadelphia cemetery (First African Baptist Church) were studied by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry and X-ray fluorescence for lead content. High bone lead levels led to investigation of possible diagenetic effects. These were investigated by several different approaches including distribution of lead within bone by X-ray fluorescence, histological preservation, soil lead concentration and acidity as well as location and depth of burial. Bone lead levels were very high in children, exceeding those of the adult population that were buried in the cemetery, and also those of present day adults. The antemortem age-related increase in bone lead, reported in other studies, was not evidenced in this population. Lead was evenly deposited in areas of taphonomic bone destruction. Synchrotron X-ray fluorescence studies revealed no consistent pattern of lead microdistribution within the bone. Our conclusions are that postmortem diagenesis of lead ion has penetrated these archaeological bones to a degree that makes their original bone lead content irretrievable by any known method. Increased bone porosity is most likely responsible for the very high levels of lead found in bones of newborns and children. 相似文献

It has been shown for developing enamel and zebrafish fin that hydroxyapatite (HA) is preceded by an amorphous precursor, motivating us to examine the mineral development in mammalian bone, particularly femur and tibia of fetal and young mice. Mineral particle thickness and arrangement were characterized by (synchrotron) small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) combined with wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) and X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis. Simultaneous measurements of the local calcium content and the HA content via XRF and WAXD, respectively, revealed the total calcium contained in HA crystals. Interestingly, bones of fetal as well as newborn mice contained a certain fraction of calcium which is not part of the HA crystals. Mineral deposition could be first detected in fetal tibia at day 16.5 by environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM). SAXS revealed a complete lack of orientation in the mineral particles at this stage, whereas 1 day after birth particles were predominantly aligned parallel to the longitudinal bone axis, with the highest degree of alignment in the midshaft. Moreover, we found that mineral particle length increased with age as well as the thickness, while fetal particles were thicker but much shorter. In summary, this study revealed strong differences in size and orientation of the mineral particles between fetal and postnatal bone, with bulkier, randomly oriented particles at the fetal stage, and highly aligned, much longer particles after birth. Moreover, a part of the calcium seems to be present in other form than HA at all stages of development. 相似文献

Knowledge of soil heavy metal concentration is very important for assessing the purity and quality of the soil in an environment. The concentrations of nine heavy metals (NHM), Zn, Pb, Cr, Cu, Co, Ni, Cd, Hg, and As, from the near-surface soils (~ 0–15 cm) from an industrial cluster in Kumasi, Ghana, were qualitatively and quantitatively measured and analyzed using X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectroscopy analysis. The sources of these NHM were mainly anthropogenic as a result of the indiscriminate industrial waste disposal. In all, a total of about 100 soil samples were taken from six sampling sites, four of which were industrial and the remaining two residential. Forty soil samples out of the total number were carefully selected for elemental analyses and the mean heavy metal concentrations were calculated using statistical methods. The results from locations of high industrial impact showed that the mean concentrations of the NHM present in the soil were in the order of Zn (189.2?908.6 mgkg?1), Pb (133.7?571.3 mgkg?1), Cr (91.3?545.8 mgkg?1), Cu (62.9?334.6 mgkg?1), Co (38.6?81.9 mgkg?1), Ni (12.4?30.9 mgkg?1), Cd (6.9?13.2 mgkg?1), Hg (5.5?10.4 mg kg?1), and As (2.3?18.6 mgkg?1). Apart from Ni and As, all the heavy metals recorded concentrations that ranged from 10?900% higher than their respective threshold limit values (TLVs). Heavy metal concentrations from the residential sites were comparatively far lower with only Cr, Cd, and Hg registering concentrations between 65?250% above their TLVs. The cluster with its residential communities is at a serious risk of soil heavy metal toxicity and awareness to this needs to be created as such. 相似文献

In order to get some information on the possible causes of graying of hair, we have used the technique of X-ray fluorescence
(XRF) analysis for comparing the trace element contents of natural color and gray hair from a number of subjects. The technique
of XRF was preferred to other analytical methods for this kind of comparative studies since it appeared to be simple, convenient,
quick, and contamination free.
Natural color and gray hair from each subject were obtained from the same scalp region. The hair samples were washed in the
recommended fashion. The natural color and gray hair from different subjects were mounted separately on hollow plastic cylindrical
sample holders, assuring that the hair were parallel to, and not on top of one another. The samples were analyzed in a commercial
wave length dispersive XRF system, with different X-ray tubes being used for obtaining maximum sensitivity for different elements.
The scattered X-ray peak from each sample was also monitored and gave a measure of the sample volume being investigated. So
far, hair samples from 10 subjects have been analyzed. Their results are presented in the paper, and advantages of XRF, for
trace element analysis on hair are discussed. 相似文献

Lead is a potent environmental toxin that has accumulated above its natural level as a result of human activity. Pb cation shows major affinity towards protein complexation and it has been used as modulator of protein-membrane interactions. We located the binding sites of Pb(II) with human serum (HSA) and bovine serum albumins (BSA) at physiological conditions, using constant protein concentration and various Pb contents. FTIR, UV-visible, CD, fluorescence and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic (XPS) methods were used to analyse Pb binding sites, the binding constant and the effect of metal ion complexation on HSA and BSA stability and conformations. Structural analysis showed that Pb binds strongly to HSA and BSA via hydrophilic contacts with overall binding constants of K(Pb-HSA)?=?8.2 (±0.8)×10(4) M(-1) and K(Pb-BSA)?=?7.5 (±0.7)×10(4) M(-1). The number of bound Pb cation per protein is 0.7 per HSA and BSA complexes. XPS located the binding sites of Pb cation with protein N and O atoms. Pb complexation alters protein conformation by a major reduction of α-helix from 57% (free HSA) to 48% (metal-complex) and 63% (free BSA) to 52% (metal-complex) inducing a partial protein destabilization. 相似文献

Effect of bone char addition on the fractionation and bio-accessibility of lead (Pb) and Zinc (Zn) in combined contaminated soil was studied by batch soil column incubation experiment. Four treatments were designed: control (without bone char), 1%, 2% and 5% bone char addition (by weight). The results showed that all treatments with bone char addition could significantly decrease the concentration of HOAc extractable Pb (P < 0.05). Compared with the control the concentration of HOAc extractable Pb was decreased by 66.85%, 83.69% and 97.40%, respectively, in 1%, 2% and 5% bone char amended soils after 3 months incubation. The treatment with 5% bone char addition significantly decreased (P < 0.05) the concentration of HOAc extractable Zn by 47.80%, 43.63% and 41.35%, respectively, after 1, 2 and 3 months incubation. All treatments, including 1%, 2% and 5% bone char addition, significantly decreased (P < 0.05) the concentration of bio-accessible Pb after 3 months incubation, however, only the treatment with 5% bone char addition significantly decreased (P < 0.05) the concentration of bio-accessible Zn after 3 months incubation. The results highlighted the potential of bone char amendments to reduce the bioavailability of Pb and Zn in contaminated soil. 相似文献

Pb(II) ion serves as a quencher of anthracene fluorescence both intermolecularly and in intracomplex systems reported to date. The advantages of intensimetric analyses showing increasing signal require the design of mechanistically novel fluorescent chemosensors capable of yielding enhanced fluorescence upon chelation of inherently quenching metals. We synthesized both 2- and 9-derivatives of anthracene bearing the N-methylthiohydroxamate ligand, which is capable of quenching fluorescence in the uncomplexed form and which shows some selectivity for Pb(II). Complexation of the 2-derivative to Pb(II) results in rapid metal ion-catalyzed hydrolysis, rendering this compound useless as a sensor with real-time response. However, complexation of the 9-derivative with Pb(II) results in a 13-fold fluorescence increase, reversible upon dissociation of the metal ion. While blood lead analysis is a major potential application for fluorescent chemosensors, the present compound is insufficiently selective for this use. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of allicin, the main biologically active component of garlic clove
extracts, on lead levels in different common carp tissues including liver, kidney, brain, bone, and blood following experimental
lead poisoning. Fish were divided randomly into five groups depending on the combination of lead acetate and allicin treatments.
Lead acetate exposure (7.0 mgL−1, 10 days) caused a significant increase in mean Pb concentrations in all examined tissues in comparison to control unexposed
fish (p < 0. 001). The results showed that allicin supplementation is effective in decreasing lead accumulation in all examined tissues
of common carp. The promising ameliorative effects of allicin on tissue lead levels of common carp make it a good candidate
for therapeutic intervention of lead poisoning. However, more studies are required to elucidate the pharmacokinetic effects
of allicin and also molecular basis of the ameliorative properties of allicin in lead poisoning. 相似文献

Microbeam X-ray spectrometry, energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence analysis, and neutron activation analysis were evaluated
for the detection of selenium contained in the selenoprotein glutathione peroxidase. The glutathione peroxidase had been previously
separated using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The use of Bragg-reflected polarized X-ray beams was employed in the X-ray
fluorescence measurements to minimize the problem of scatter owing to the gel matrix. Current detection limits of selenium
in a gel matrix are 2.1 ng in the bench-top microbeam X-ray system and 30–60 ng using XRF with polarized beams. Neutron activation
analysis was used for qualitycontrol measurements, with a detection limit here of <0.08 ng. The work has in principle established
the feasibility of such an approach. 相似文献
