antimony/oryza

Effect of interactions between boron (B) and antimony on the uptake and accumulation by rice (Oryza sativa L.) seedling was investigated in solution culture. The results showed that Sb(III) and Sb(V) could inhibit rice growth and Sb(III) was more toxic than Sb(V). Concentrations of B in rice roots

Although iron (Fe) plaque has been shown to significantly affect the uptake of toxic antimony (Sb) by rice, knowledge about the influence of iron plaque on antimony (Sb) (amount, mechanisms, etc) is, however, limited. Here, the effect of Fe plaque on Sb(III) and Sb(V) (nominal oxidation states)

Antimony (Sb), as a toxic metalloid, has been gaining increasing research concerns due mainly to its severe pollution in many places. Rice has been identified to be the dominant intake route of Sb by residents close to the Sb mining areas. A hydroponic experiment was conducted to investigate the

Foods produced on soils impacted by antimony (Sb) mining activities are a potential health risk due to plant uptake of the contaminant metalloids (Sb) and arsenic (As). Here we report for the first time the chemical speciation of Sb in soil and porewater of flooded paddy soil, impacted by active Sb

To better understand the Sb phytoavailability in rice, we studied Sb accumulation in rice (Zhongjiazao-17, widely cultivated in Hunan province) at different growth stages based on adding Sb^III and Sb^V to waterlogged soils in 10, 50 and 100 mg kg^-1 treatment levels.
