The results revealed that every vegetable contained the highest concentration of Zn range from 15 ± 1.4 to 50 ± 4.0 mg/kg fresh weight. Trace metals in vegetables exceeded the permissible level of FAO and WHO standard. The non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic risks were estimated on the basis of estimated daily intake (EDI), target hazard quotient (THQ), hazard index (HI) and target carcinogenic risks (TRs). The EDI values of all trace metals were below the maximum tolerable daily intake (MTDI). Total target hazard quotient (TTHQ) were greater than 1, indicated that if people consume these types of vegetables in their diet, they might pose risk to these metals. Finally, the total cancer risks (TRs) values were 6.4 × 10−3 for As and 8.7 × 10−5 for Pb which were greater than threshold value of USEPA (10−6), indicating that the consuming inhabitants of these vegetables are exposed to As and Pb with a lifetime cancer risk.]]> Wed 28 Feb 2024 15:20:23 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48379 Saccostrea glomerata. Oysters were exposed to a “low” and a “high” mixture of (xeno) estrogens (representative of Australian and global receiving waters respectively) for 7 days and digestive gland, gill, and gonad tissue were sampled for quantification of polar metabolites by ¹H NMR spectroscopy. Exposure to both mixtures lowered body mass and altered the metabolite profile in the digestive glands. Comparatively, gills, and ovaries demonstrated lesser sensitivity to the mixtures, with significant metabolomic alterations observed only for the high mixture. The male gonad did not respond to either estrogenic exposure. In the responsive tissues, major metabolites including amino acids, carbohydrates, intermediates of the tricarboxylic acid cycle and ATP were all down-regulated and exhibited tissue-specific patterns of down-regulation with the greatest proportion of metabolites down-regulated due to estrogenic exposure in the digestive gland. Exposure to (xeno) estrogen mixtures representative of concentrations reported in receiving waters in Australia and globally can impact the metabolome and associated energy metabolism, especially in the digestive gland, translating to lower pools of available ATP energy for potential cellular homeostasis, somatic maintenance and growth, reproduction and fitness.]]> Wed 15 Mar 2023 14:50:37 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:47121 Wed 14 Dec 2022 12:32:24 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50102  1); however, fruits and pulses do not pose any non-cancer health risks to Bangladeshi residents. Most of the cereals and vegetables showed a higher value than 10−6, indicating a potential cancer risk; however, fruits and pulses showed lower risk only marginally exceeding the lower allowable limit (i.e., 10−6).]]> Wed 12 Jul 2023 14:04:45 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50263 Wed 12 Jul 2023 11:44:07 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37215 Wed 10 Nov 2021 15:04:38 AEDT ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39440 Wed 07 Jun 2023 10:32:24 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39208 1). Further, there is significant translocation from roots to shoot for Cu, Zn and Cd (≤ 1), however, Pb is less mobile (TF = 0.65). Patterns of accumulation were similar among families, except greater Cd accumulation to roots in members of Juncaceae. Patterns of uptake to roots and translocation to leaves were broadly similar among plant type, plant form, habitat and photosynthetic mode. Zinc is lower in the leaves of salt-secreting species for some closely related taxa, suggesting some species co-excrete sodium (Na⁺) and Zn²⁺ through glands in leaf tissue. Salinity tolerance has no relationship to metal uptake and translocation. Translocation of Zn is greater at lower Zn sediment exposures, reflecting its active uptake and essentiality, but such bias does not affect outcomes of analyses when included as a covariate.]]> Wed 03 May 2023 14:02:01 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:43556 Fri 23 Sep 2022 10:33:22 AEST ]]> https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34757 Fri 05 May 2023 15:48:50 AEST ]]>
