“…However, high exposure of Cu may lead to anaemia, gastrointestinal problems, kidney and liver failure. The average Cu concentration found in the present study was lower than that reported for M.rosenbergii from Kerang River, Sarawak [9] and Kuala Selangor, Selangor [10]. The bioconcentration of Cu was observed in the organs mainly implicated in metal intoxication.…”

Mining activities at the upstream of the Kuantan River basin can be resulted to adverse impacts for both human and aquatic lives. The heavy metal contamination of aquatic environment has gained the public attention. In fact, in recent decades, urban activities and industrial waste have led to an increase in contamination of heavy metals in the water bodies which may have direct effect on aquatic ecosystem. Therefore, this study aims to determine the level of Aluminium (Al) and Copper (Cu) in the muscle and gills of giant freshwater prawns (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) collected from five selected rivers in Kuantan, Pahang. Field sampling was conducted between September and December 2017. The giant freshwater prawns were digested and then analysed with inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. The obtained results revealed that, Al levels in muscle of M.rosenbergii among all rivers occurred in the rank order: Pandan river>Riau river> Pinang river> Kuantan>Balok river, while in gills: Pandan river>Kuantan river>Balok river>Pinang river>Riau river. The concentration of Cu in muscle were in order of: Pandan river>Pinang river> Riau river> Balok river > Kuantan river, whereas Cu in gills were: Pandan river>Balok river>Kuantan river>Pinang river > Riau river. The highest content level of Al and Cu in both prawn’s muscle (14.03 ± 3.55 and 12.28 ± 3.87) mg/kg and gills (7.06 ± 2.53 and 12.28 ± 3.87) mg/kg were caught from Pandan River. In risk and safety assessment, the metal concentrations in the edible muscle of prawn were found to be below the established limits by WHO (1982), MFA (1983, US FDA (2001), and JECFA (2000). This study suggests that the prawns caught from Kuantan river are safe for human consumption.

“…The highest concentration (60.46 mg kg À1 ) of Cu was recorded in the shrimp species Macrobrachium spp. and was higher than that found by Idrus et al (2018) in the species Macrobrachium rosenbergii (below than 30 mg kg À1 ). The maximum concentration (37.16 mg kg À1 ) in oysters was lower than the values of 67 mg kg À1 observed by Paez-Osuna et al (1991), 76.5 mg Kg À1 by Frías- Espericueta et al (2005) in Crassostrea corteziensis along the Mexican Pacific Coast and 63.37 mg kg À1 by Jonathan et al (2017) in Crassostrea gigas from SW Gulf of California Coast, Mexico.…”

Oysters and shrimp are abundant and commonly consumed seafood by the indigenous population of the Kongo central region of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Literature reviews suggest that no data were available for the metal concentrations in these species. Consequently, the purpose of this study is to determine the metal concentrations in tissues of oysters (Egeria congica) and shrimp (Macrobrachium spp., Parapenaeus spp., Penaeus spp.) collected in November 2017 from the Atlantic Ocean Coast of DRC in the territory of Muanda. Metal levels in the seafood species studied here were put into context using international regulation for human consumption set by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), European Union (EU), and World Health Organization (WHO). Our results demonstrated that the concentration of heavy metals varied considerably between sampling sites and analyzed species (P < 0.05), with the values (in mg kg 1 ) ranged between 0.05-0.41, 0.03-2.25,

“…The higher concentration of Cd can cause plant toxicity and reduction in growth through interference with mineral and Cd absorption, and movement of necessary elements (Karcz & Kurtyka, 2007), The ndings of present study are in accordance with these results. The Cd concentration reduced the plant growth and prompted phytochelatin (PC), Cd destructively lowers plant growth because it is non-essential element (Idrus, Basri, Rahim, Abd Rahim, & Chong, 2018). Inoculation of seeds with Bacillus pumilus also enhanced plant growth, this increase in plant length might be due to the production of phytohormones (Ryu & Patten, 2008).…”

Purpose: Heavy metals contaminate the soil that alters the properties of soil and negatively affect plants growth. Using microorganism and plant can remove these pollutants from soil. The present investigation was designed to evaluate the induced effect of Bacillus pumilus on maize plant in Cadmium (Cd) contaminated soil. Methods: Three different concentrations of Cd (i.e. 0.25, 0.50 and 0.75 mg kg-1) were applied in soil under which maize plants were grown. The germination percentage, shoot length, leaf length, number of leaves, root length,fresh weight and nutrient uptake by maize plant were determined. The experiment was conducted by using complete randomized design (CRD) with three replicates. Results: The result indicated that germination percentage, Shoot length, leaf length, root length, number of leaves, and plant fresh weight were reduced by 37, 39, 39, 32 and 59% respectively at 0.75mg kg-1 of CdSO4concentration but when maize seeds inoculated with Bacillus pumilus significantly increased the germination percentage, shoot length, leaf length, number of leaves, plant fresh weight at different concentrations of CdSO4. Moreover, the plant protein were significantly increased by 60% in T6 (0.25 mg kg-1 of CdSO4+inoculated seed) and Peroxidase dismutase (POD) was also significantly higher by 346% in T6 (0.25 mg kg-1 of CdSO4+inoculated seed), however, the Superoxide dismutase (SOD) was significantly higher in T5 (0.75 mg kg-1 of CdSO4+ uninoculated seed) and was 769% higher as compared to control. The Cd contents in Bacillus pumilus inoculated maize roots and shoots were decreased. Conclusion: The present investigations indicated that the inoculation of maize plant with Bacillus pumilus can help maize plants to withstand Cd stress but higher concentration of Cd can harm the plant. The Bacillus pumilus has good potential to remediate Cd from soil, and also have potential to reduce the phytoavailibility and toxicity of Cd.
