Los Riesgos De Los Metales Pesados en La Salud Humana Y Animal

Evaluation of Health Risks Due to Heavy Metals in a Rural Population Exposed to Atoyac River Pollution in Puebla, Mexico

“…In addition to the presence of chromium in groundwater, lead was also detected, with concentrations greater than the maximum permissible limit for human consumption in some well samples. Lead, unlike chromium and the other metals analyzed, is not required for the human metabolism, and therefore is dangerous when entering the human body orally, even in low amounts [28,41]. Lead and its alloys are common components of pipes, batteries, cable linings, etc., and the compounds of this metal are used as pigments in paints, in varnishes for ceramics, and in filling materials [22,28,67].…”

“…Sin embargo, persiste el peligro de extinción junto a otras semillas, raíces y tubérculos aún descuidados de la región andina, que incluye los tradicionalmente cultivados y procesados ajustados a condiciones climáticas específicas que debe ser profundizados en futuros estudios al respecto (Klásková y Fernandéz, 2011;Vepachedu, Park, Sharma y Vivanco, 2005).…”

“…El cambio de temperatura ha contribuido también a la ocurrencia de incendios en las zonas forestales que viene ocasionado la desaparición de grandes sumideros de carbono haciendo más notorio aún los impactos del cambio climático (Londoño-franco, Londoño-muñoz, & Muñoz-garcía, 2016;Produce, 2015;Toimil, 2016). El objetivo 13 de la Agenda al milenio 2030 delineado por la ONU, sostiene que es necesario "adoptar medidas urgentes para combatir el cambio climático y sus efectos" por su mayor relevancia e importancia de causa-efecto debido al impacto de la emisión de gases tóxicos produciendo el efecto invernadero que afecta a todos los países, convirtiéndose en amenaza permanente.…”

Can Salvia splendens ‘Red Vista’ be used in association with the mycorrhizal fungus Glomus intraradices for the assisted phytoextraction of lead from the soil in Lima, Peru?

“…Most of the time, the symptoms of lead poisoning go unnoticedfor example, it can result in the cognitive development of children being severely delayed, as well as behavioral disorders and even hypertension. However, it can also cause more obvious symptoms, such as anemia, fatigue, insomnia, and gastrointestinal disturbances (Word Health Organization, 2014;Londoño, Londoño, & Muñoz, 2017).…”
