“…Ba concentrations in flowers with the addition of sugar cane filter cake and peat were as follows: 20.2 and 16.0 mg kg −1 , respectively, for oilseed radish; 15.3 and 21.0 mg kg −1 , respectively, for sunflowers. A high Ba mobility has also been observed in cotton and white beets during development and flowering, whereas a large amount of Ba accumulation has been reported in the leaves of corn (105.7 mg kg −1 ) when compared with the grains of corn (1.05 mg kg −1 ) [6,33]. The obtained transfer factors (lower than 1) suggested that the tested species were inadequate in accumulating or extracting Ba from soil (Table 6).…”

The effect of organic matter addition on Ba availability toHelianthus annuusL.,Raphanus sativusL., andRicinus communisL. grown on a Neossolo Litólico Chernossólico fragmentário (pH 7.5), contaminated with scrap residue was evaluated. Four rates (0, 20, 40, and 80 Mg ha−1, organic carbon basis) of peat or sugar cane filter, with three replicates, were tested. Plant species were grown until the flowering stage. No effect of organic matter addition to soil on dry matter yield of oilseed radish shoots was observed, but there was an increase in sunflower and castor oil plant shoots when sugar cane filter cake was used. The average Ba transferred from roots to shoots was more than 89% for oilseed radish, 71% for castor oil plants, and 59% for sunflowers. Organic matter treatments were not efficient in reducing Ba availability due to soil liming.

“…The contaminations of heavy toxic metals in plants could develop serious health problems because there is a narrow concentration range between the deficiency and toxicity levels of the heavy metals in humans [36] . The WHO has emphasized on various standard techniques for the analysis of toxic heavy metals in plant products to ascertain their safety [37] .…”

BackgroundSamasharkara Churna, a polyherbal Ayurvedic formulation, is prescribed for treating various conditions such as asthma and cough. Literature review suggested that characterization parameters of Samasharkara Churna are not reported.ObjectiveTo report characteristic parameters of Samasharkara Churna to conform its identity, quality and purity.Materials and MethodsSamasharkara Churna was evaluated for pharmacognostic, physicochemical, microbiological, and chromatographic parameters.ResultsThe chromatographic analysis was able to showed presence of all ingredients in Samasharkara Churna.ConclusionThe characterization parameters presented in this paper may serve as standard reference for the quality control analysis of Samasharkara Churna.

“…5, as obtained on HPGe detector connected to 5K MCA with APTEC software. The ability of orange plant to uptake essential nutrients, various trace elements and transfer from soil to upper parts has been reported [14,15]. We have also observed the uptake comprehension co-relation from soil to leaves and other parts of plant for the elements like Al, Mn, Ca, Na, Fe, La and K. Significant differences were found in the soil and the leave samples.…”

ABSTRACT:Citrus reticulata (mandarin) plant parts and soil have been opted for elemental evaluation by INAA with comparator and k 0 method. Two reference material Soil-7 (IAEA) and apple leaves (SRM1515) were used as standards. Sodium was estimated by irradiation of samples in Am-Be source followed by counting on NaI(Tl) detector. Samples were also irradiated in KAMINI reactor, IGCAR, Kalpakkam and radioactive assay was carried out using HPGe detector coupled with 5MCA. Concentration of Na, Al, Mn, Ca, Fe, Sr, Sm, Sc, La, Th, Br, K, Zn, Ce were determined by NAA and in all 15 radicals were identified by XRF for same samples. It has been seen that soil with certain mineralogical and chemical make-up behaves respectively for availability of micronutrients.
