“…The elevated values identified for Pb and Cd might be related to human activities (wastewater discharges) (Zarei et al, 2014). A similar profile of heavy metals contamination was reported by Ghannem et al (2016) for Kantra River (Ras Jbel, Tunisia) under three jeans fading industries: Lee Cooper, Denim authority and CRJ.…”

The risk of heavy metals is major environmental problem. The levels of heavy metals enrichments in the sediments sampled from the Ichkeul wetland streams system were determined using contamination indices: the contamination factor (CF), geo-accumulation index (Igeo), and pollution load index (PLI). The obtained data for the geo-accumulation index revealed that sampled sediments are unpolluted for Fe, Zn, Mn, Ni, Cu, and Cr, while the levels of Cd and Pb indicated a moderate to heavy contamination. A similar profile was given by the data of the contamination factor. The pollution load index showed low values in all studied samples, ranging between 0.45 and 1.35. The non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) analysis highlighted three main groups suggesting that they derived from same sources.

“…In order to assess the heavy metal bioaccumulation capacity in terrestrial species, the bioaccumulation factor was used as a valuable approach (Abd El‐Wekeil, ; Blanusa, Mrkovic‐Milic, & Durbesic, ; Ghannem et al, ; Ghannem, Touaylia, & Boumaiza, ; Ghemari et al, ; Gräff, Berkus, Alberti, & Köhler, ). Our results revealed that A. granulatum could be considered as a macroconcentrator of Cu (BAF > 2) and a deconcentrator of Zn (BAF < 2).…”

“…To assess metal accumulation in A. granulatum individuals, the bioaccumulation factor (BAF) was calculated. According to Ghannem, Khazri, Sellami, and Boumaiza () and Ghemari et al (, ), it is defined as the ratio between the measured metal concentrations in woodlice (mg kg −1 dw) and that of the soil (mg kg −1 dw). Based on Dallinger's classification (Dallinger, ), BAF values could be interpreted as follows: If BAF < 1, the species is deconcentrator. If 1 < BAF < 2, the species is microconcentrator. If BAF > 2, the species is macroconcentrator. …”

This study was conducted to compare metals bioaccumulation in the terrestrial isopod Armadillidium granulatum collected from Ghar El Melh lagoon. We focused on recognizing the effects of trace elements on hepatopancreas functional role. To this end, isopod specimens were exposed for 3 weeks to sediments contaminated with cadmium, copper, zinc, mercury, and nickel. Three concentrations were used in duplicate for each experimental condition. At the end of the experiment, metal body burdens were determined using flame atomic absorption spectrometry. Results of the bioaccumulation factor (BAF) showed that the species A. granulatum was classified as a Cu macroconcentrator (BAF > 2) and a Zn deconcentrator (BAF < 2). Dose dependent morphological and histological changes were observed in the hepatopancreas cells using transmission electron microscopy. The predominant features were: microvillus border disruption, condensation of the cytoplasm with increasing endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, lysosomes and granules that accumulated metals in B and S cells. The number of lipid droplets decreased especially after Cd, Zn, Hg, and Ni treatments. This study demonstrated that the terrestrial isopod A. gramulatum could be a good indicator of soil metal contamination.

Soil ,the carrier of agricultural production and important part of the ecological environment, is heavily contaminated with hazards heavy metals. Therefore, it is oblige to research analytical techniques that could efficiently determine the total content of heavy metals in soil. The determination of heavy metals in soil was disturbed by matrix elements or spectral interferences . In this study , this problem was solved by internal standard method . GBW07402、 GBW07448、GBW07423、GBW07428、GBW074079 soil sample were chosen to be the Certified Reference Materials, soils was prepared by microwave digestion with mixed acid following analyzed for determination the content（Cr,Cu, Pb,Ba,Ni,Mn ） by Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometric in 50ug/L internal standard concentration, the method was validated by compared with certified values 、 method contrast(standard addition method versus internal standard method scan the same prepared solution ) and recovery check. The results of internal standard method are in excellent agreement with the indicative values and the date obtained from standard addition method, respectively.Recoveries were adequate being in the acceptable range of 90-99% and RSD of <6.7 % for all the elements at three level of 5,20 and 50mg/kg with quantified by standard addition method and internal standard method .Finally, The graphy of quality control(n=100)were obtained to guide internal quality control in laboratory
