The heavy metal constituents of some vegetables and soils sample from a farm close to e-waste and non-e-waste dumpsite were evaluated. The farms were within Yenagoa local government area (the state capital) Bayelsa State Nigeria. The vegetables examined were Scent leaf, Pumpkin leaf, Okro, and Maize. The plants and soil samples were collected from the farm in August 2019 during the peak of the rainfall. The plant samples were washed with tap water and rinsed with distilled water and then cut into smaller pieces with a kitchen knife....Preview Download Preview +Other Biochemistry project topics and materials you might be interested in»Phytochemical and nutritive composition of fluted pumpkin»Determination of ascorbic acid in selected fruits mango, orange and pineapple using spectro-photometric method»Comparative evaluation of heavy metal loads in some selected soft drinks in Owerri, Imo state»Antilipidemic effect of water (H2O) extract of desmodium velutinum leaves on albino Wistar rats»The effect of water extract of cola nitida pod on lipoprotein concentrations of albino Wistar rats»Preliminary investigation on effects of burantashi extract on lipoproteins of albino male and female whistar rats»The extraction of manganese (iv) ion from aqueous media using 1-phethyl-3-methyl pyrazolone-5»Nutritive value, anti-nutrient and mineral composition of cashew nut (Anacardium Occidentale)»Evaluation of the immunomodulatory effect of oral administration of the methanol extract of gongronema latifolium (utazi) in wistar albino rats»Comparative study on the free radical scavenging potential of turmeric and beetroot»Phytochemicals and minerals analysis of rosary pea (Abrus Precatorious leaves)»Determination of total petroleum hydrocarbons in Niger river»Qualitative phytochemical and gas chromatography mass spectrometry GCMS of Nhexane extracted leaves of sabicea calycina»Hydrogen peroxide scavenging activities and reducing power of various fruits juice in Yenagoa»Charges in the concentration of nitric oxide in the serum gills brain liver and kidney of clarias gariepinus exposed to glyphosatebased herbicide
