BackgroundMetals are one of the micro molecules required by living cell to do their biochemical functions. Out of a list of metals few are very important and useful to cells while few are required in very minute amount and their higher concentration harm or cause adverse effects on living forms. Copper and ferrous are commonly counted as essential metals to plant cells but sometimes their higher concentration is harmful to plant cells. Copper is commonly counted as important metal to plant cells but sometimes their higher concentration is harmful to plant cells.ResultsIt was found that higher concentration of copper and ferrous showed reduction in germination percentages and gemination time of investigated plant while chromium shown lethal impacts on seed germinationConclusionsIn the present study effects of copper, chromium and nickel was studied for total sugar and protein content of widely cultivated pulses i.e. Glycine max. Collectively present study showed that higher concentration of copper and nickel has adverse effects on Glycine max total sugar and protein content while chromium has lethal impacts at lower concentration also.

In this study a certain chemical elements Cu, Mn and Pb were ‎determined in water, and another set of Cd, Cu, Fe, and Zn were ‎determined in sediments from selected sites (1) Qurnah, (2) Al-‎Noor Bridge, (3) Saad Bridge, (4) Sindbad Island, (5) Al-Ashar, ‎‎(6) Abu Al-Khaseeb, (7) Seebah, and (8) Al-Faw along the ‎Southern Iraqi water ways during the year 2015. Low levels of ‎heavy metals were recorded in the water of Shatt Al-Arab river, ‎they were in the range 0.00735 - 0.02090, 0.00505 - 0.02145, ‎and 0.00150 - 0.0837 µg/l for Cu, Mn, and Pb respectively, and ‎lower values recorded were for the toxic Pb metal. On the other ‎hand levels of heavy metals in the sediments were little bit high ‎and in the range 0.1172488 - 0.614806, 17.175343 - 40.156639, ‎‎8156.970 - 21021.63, and 31.864781 - 79.160779 µg/g dry ‎weight for Cd, Cu, Fe, and Zn respectively. Fe recorded the ‎highest levels of heavy metals in all sites due to the nature of the ‎sedimentary valley in Iraq. Low levels of heavy metals Cu, Fe, ‎and Zn were recorded in the sediments of Seebah (site no.7) due ‎to the effect of sediment movements through Karun River from ‎the Iranian territories. More over levels of all investigated heavy ‎metals were recorded high values in the water from Ashar (site 5) ‎due to corrosion of marine vessels sunk in the area since the Iraqi-‎Iranian War 1980-1988.‎

“…In addition, the sediments at the bottom of the water body can play a major role by their ability to accumulate the elements and different types of pollutants, so they can be a source of these elements specially when physicochemical factors changed which help in the release of these elements to the overlying water column (Hassan et al, 2008). Factors like temperature, velocity of water, pH, Eh ionic strength, fine sediment particles, increases the release of heavy metals to the water environment particularly when the surface of sediment is filled with heavy metals and the concentration of them less in the overlying water column (Davis et al, 1991;Karbassi et al, 2005;Al-Atbee, 2018;Hassan, 2018). The aim of this present study is focused on the estimation of some heavy metals in an important regional water of Iraq which considered as marine navigation road (trading and export oil) between Iraq and Iran, and between Iraq and Kuwait.…”

Some toxic and essential heavy metals have been evaluated at five stations of the marine water region of Basrah governorate, southern Iraq. Eight of different elements (Pb, Zn, Ni, Mn, Fe, Cu, Cr and Cd) were measured at five stations from various regions these elements were collected by using water sampler at depth 20-25 cm in low tide at summer season in 2016. They have been analyzed using flame-atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The results of all measurements of heavy metals indicated the dominance zinc more than the other elements at St. 1 and St. 4 ranged from 0.144 to 0.193 mg/l, respectively. St. 2 and St. 5 exhibited the dominance of lead in the range between 0.164 and 0.253 mg/l, respectively. While, St. 3 showed the highest concentration of nickel compared with the other elements (0.190 mg/l). Standard deviation was calculated for all elements measured and were in the ranged or(0.008-0.049).
