The Carcinogenic and Non-Carcinogenic Health Risks of Metal(oid)s Bioaccumulation in Leafy Vegetables: A Consumption Advisory

Alsafran, Mohammed; Usman, Kamal; Rizwan, Muhammad; Ahmed, Talaat; Al Jabri, Hareb ( Frontiers Media , 2021 , Article)

High levels of metal(oid)s in soil or food pose a severe health risk to humans. The potential toxicants find their way into the living systems via the food chain, following bioaccumulation in edible plants, including leafy ...

Are mangroves in arid environments isolated systems? Life-history and evidence of dietary contribution from inwelling in a mangrove-resident shrimp species

I., Al-Maslamani; Walton, M.E.M.; Kennedy, H.A.; Al-Mohannadi, M.; Le Vay, L. ( Elsevier , 2013 , Article)

The Arabian Gulf represents one of the more northerly extremes of mangrove distribution in the Indo-Pacific, and is populated only by Avicennia marina, due to its tolerance of high salinity and wide temperature extremes. ...
