“…Several studies have suggested that the toxicity and mobility of heavy metals depends not only on their total amounts but also on their chemical fractionation in soil (Ma and Rao, 1997;Li and Thornton, 2001;Greenway and Song, 2002;Chojnacka et al, 2005;Gupta and Sinha, 2006;Silveira et al, 2006;Kartal et al, 2006;Li et al, 2007;Tandy et al, 2009;Wang et al, 2009;Rodríguez et al, 2009). There are many classification methods to assess the chemical fractions of heavy metals in soil (Tessier et al, 1979;Ahnstrom and Parker, 1999;Qiao et al, 2003;Silveira et al, 2006).…”
