Cadmium and lead uptake by Red Swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) of Louisiana

Journal Article Naqvi, S.M. ; Howell, R.D. - Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology; (United States)

Environmental contamination by heavy metals such as cadmium and lead is generally reflected by an increase in the tissue residues of aquatic animals. This is also true for fresh-water crayfish as reported by Bagatto and Khan (1987) for Orconectes virilis collected in the vicinity of Canadian smelters. They found a positive correlation between the residues of Cd and Pb in crayfish tissues and the distance from smelters. Stinson and Eaton reported similar findings for another crayfish, Pacifasticus leniusculus, collected from a lake on the West Coast of the US which was receiving urban runoff. Cadmium and lead were more concentratedmore »« less

Comparison of metal concentrations in the fore and hindguts of the crayfish Cambarus bartoni and Orconectes virilis and implications regarding metal absorption efficiencies

Journal Article Bendell-Young, L.I. - Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology; (United States)

The anthropogenic perturbation of trace metal cycle has resulted in increased emission of trace metals into the atmosphere. This has resulted in the elevation of trace metals in recently deposited sediments of lakes far removed from the original source. Benthic invertebrates, such as crayfish, live and feed directly on recently deposited sediments and are in direct contact with metals both of natural and anthropogenic origin. Crayfish may be good indicators of sediment-metal levels as they appear to retain tissue-metal concentrations that are correlated to environmental levels (e.g., for Cu, Zn and Fe). However, it is suggested that as crayfish homeostaticallymore »« less

Review of Constructed Subsurface Flow vs. Surface Flow Wetlands

Technical Report HALVERSON, NANCY

The purpose of this document is to use existing documentation to review the effectiveness of subsurface flow and surface flow constructed wetlands in treating wastewater and to demonstrate the viability of treating effluent from Savannah River Site outfalls H-02 and H-04 with a subsurface flow constructed wetland to lower copper, lead and zinc concentrations to within National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit limits. Constructed treatment wetlands are engineered systems that have been designed and constructed to use the natural functions of wetlands for wastewater treatment. Constructed wetlands have significantly lower total lifetime costs and often lower capital costs thanmore »« less

Cadmium-binding proteins in midgut gland of freshwater crayfish Procambarus clarkii

Journal Article Del Ramo, J. ; Pastor, A. ; Torreblanca, A. ; ... - Bull. Environ. Contam. Toxicol.; (United States)

Metallothioneins, metal binding proteins, were originally isolated and characterized by Margoshes and Vallee. These proteins have a high affinity for various heavy metals, particularly cadmium and mercury and have extensively been studied in mammals. Metal binding proteins have been observed in a variety of marine invertebrates; however, there is very little information available on metal binding proteins in freshwater invertebrates, and particularly in freshwater crustaceans. Cadmium is an ubiquitous non essential element which possesses high toxicity to aquatic organisms. Cadmium binding proteins observed in invertebrates have similar characteristics to mammalian metallothioneins. In 1978, the American red crayfish appeared in Albuferamore »« less

Evaluation of four chemical extractants for metal determinations in wetland soils

Journal Article Sistani, K.R. ; Mays, D.A. ; Taylor, R.W. ; ... - Communications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis

Wetland soils (hydric soils) are unique in their chemical characteristics compared to upland soils. It is known that they are capable of removing a variety of wastes from polluted water entering the wetland including metals and potentially toxic heavy metals. When these metals are determined in wetland soils, it is necessary to use the proper chemical extractant(s). Four commonly used chemical extractants (Mehlich 1, Mehlich 3, 0.1 M HC1, and DTPA) for soil fertility evaluation were selected to measure metal concentrations of three different wetland soils/spoils. Soil samples were collected from the constructed wetland cells which were lined with Abernathymore »« less
