Abstract: Heavy metals are a group of toxic elements that have detrimental effects on human health and the environment. Their presence in water bodies is a major concern, as pollution caused by heavy metals can have severe consequences. Heavy metals such as lead, mercury, cadmium, and chromium are commonly found in industrial effluents, agricultural runoff, and domestic waste. Improper disposal and inadequate treatment of these pollutants result in their accumulation.....

Abstract: Background: Safe water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) practices are essential to secure a better quality of life. The use of latrines, maintaining good hygiene practices, and safe disposal of faeces and solid-liquid waste are crucial to prevent the spread of infectious diseases, and reduce incidence of malnutrition. In India, the lack of access to basic sanitation facilities and safe, clean drinking water accounts for nine out of ten diarrhea-related deaths, most of which occur in children. Likewise, access to menstrual hygiene and awareness is another difficult development issue. As sanitation.....

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the toxicity of test substance, including aloin and quercetin. Toxicity was examined by micronucleus test using male ICR mouse and through oral administration toxicity test using male and female Sprangue-Dawley rats. Week 8 ICR mouse were treated with test substance through oral administration at 0, 1250, 2500, and 5000 mg/kg/day for two days. Then, the ratio of MNPCE(Micro nucleated polychromatic erythrocyte)to PCE(polychromatic erythrocyte) and the ratio of PCE to total erythrocytes were observed. The.....
