“…In researching the processes of cell biology, several studies have demonstrated that specific DNA repair genes exhibit low levels of expression in some Cd-exposed cell lines (Singh et al, 2009;Zhou et al, 2012). Al Bakheet et al (2013) reported the effect of long-term human exposure to environmental heavy metals on the expression of detoxification and DNA repair genes. Simultaneously, the expression profiles and potential mechanisms of DNA repair genes in solid target organs of rats subchronically exposed to Cd have been a primary focus of research.…”

“…Hg can lead to serious adverse effects on the environment and human health. It can damage the central nervous system, thyroid, kidneys, lungs, immune systems and many other parts of the human body, even the human genes (Al Bakheet et al, 2013;UNEP, 2013b;US ATSDR, 1999). The food chain is the main route of exposure for human beings.…”

“…Metais pesados como o cobre e níquel estão entre os poluentes mais tóxicos presentes em efluentes provenientes de processos industriais. O cobre, mesmo em baixas concentrações, pode se depositar no cérebro, pele, fígado e pâncreas causando sérios efeitos toxicológicos nos seres humanos, enquanto que, o níquel pode causar dermatites, asma, náuseas e câncer (AL BAKHEET et al, 2013).…”

A precipitação química é o processo mais utilizado, apresentando bons resultados de remoção em altas concentrações de metais.…”
