商品描述

This book covers cadmium contamination of soil and plants, its sources, acute and long-term impacts on the environment and human health, and overall challenges posed by the global poisoning issue. Cadmium is among the elements that have been most broadly used by man over time, which has led to extensive pollution of surface soils, mainly associated with the mining and smelting of the metal and the addition of organic cadmium compounds to petrol. The release of cadmium into the atmosphere from various high-temperature processes has also led to surface contamination on a regional and even global scale. Cadmium is particularly firmly bound to humic matter in organic-rich soil and to iron oxides in mineral soil and is rather immobile in the soil unless present at very high concentrations. Plants grown on cadmium-rich soils incorporate cadmium, thus increasing the concentration of cadmium in crop plants. Cadmium thus enters the food chain through the consumption of plant material, which poses important health risks to humans and animals. In this book, readers will find out about the latest mitigation strategies, including a multi-disciplinary approach to address cadmium contamination. Recent methods in cadmium detoxification, speciation, and molecular mechanisms are included, and the book offers the knowledge required for efficient risk assessment, prevention, and countermeasure.

Divided into 3 parts, this book brings together expert contributions on cadmium toxicity. In the first part, readers will find out about the different sources and distribution of cadmium in soil and plant ecosystems. The second part of the book outlines the health risks linked to cadmium toxicity, and in the final part, readers will discover sustainable cadmium toxicity mitigation strategies and potential applications of recent biological technology in providing solutions. This book is a valuable resource for students, academics, researchers, and environmental professionals doing fieldwork on cadmium contamination throughout the world.




商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書涵蓋了土壤和植物中的鎘污染,其來源,對環境和人類健康的急性和長期影響,以及全球中毒問題所帶來的整體挑戰。鎘是人類長期以來最廣泛使用的元素之一,這導致了地表土壤的廣泛污染,主要與金屬的開採和冶煉以及有機鎘化合物添加到汽油有關。來自各種高溫過程的鎘釋放也導致了區域甚至全球範圍的地表污染。鎘在有機質豐富的土壤中與腐植質結合得非常牢固,在礦物土壤中與鐵氧化物結合,除非濃度非常高,否則在土壤中不易移動。生長在富含鎘的土壤中的植物會吸收鎘,從而增加作物中鎘的濃度。因此,鎘通過食用植物材料進入食物鏈,對人類和動物的健康構成重要風險。在本書中,讀者將了解最新的緩解策略,包括多學科方法來解決鎘污染問題。書中還包括了鎘解毒、鎘形態和分子機制的最新方法,並提供了進行高效風險評估、預防和對策所需的知識。

本書分為三部分,匯集了專家對鎘毒性的貢獻。在第一部分中,讀者將了解土壤和植物生態系統中鎘的不同來源和分佈。本書的第二部分概述了與鎘毒性相關的健康風險,最後一部分中,讀者將了解可持續的鎘毒性緩解策略以及最新生物技術在提供解決方案方面的潛在應用。本書對於在全球范圍內進行鎘污染的學生、學者、研究人員和環境專業人士進行實地工作非常有價值。
