ABSTRACT: Phytoremediation is a useful tool to restore heavy metals contaminated soils. This study was carried out to test two castor (Ricinus communis) cultivars [Local and DS-30] for phytoextraction of heavy metals from the soil spiked by known concentrations of seven metals (Cu, Cr, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn). A pot experiment was laid out by using a completely randomized design. Soil and plant samples were analyzed at 100 days after planting. The data on heavy metal uptake by plant tissues (roots, leaves and shoots) of the two castor cultivars suggested that a considerable amount of metals (Fe = 27.18 mg L-1; Cu = 5.06 mg L-1; Cr = 2.95 mg L-1; Mn = 0.22 mg L-1; Ni = 4.66 mg L-1; Pb = 3.33 mg L-1; Zn = 15.04 mg L-1) was accumulated in the plant biomass. The soil heavy metal content at the end of experiment significantly decreased with both cultivars, resulting in improved soil quality. Therefore, it is concluded that both castor cultivars, Local and DS-30, can be used for phytoremediation of heavy metal-contaminated sites.

Abstract Heavy metals pollution, especially Mercury (Hg), is one of the most serious environmental problems. The presence of excessive Hg will cause soil degradation and threaten the life of the ecosystem, for that remediation is necessary. Biduri is known to be able to absorb heavy metals, but there is no research on the ability of Biduri in absorb Hg. The use of indigenous bacteria is expected to increase the absorption of Mercury by Biduri. The purpose of this study was to determine the potential of Biduri combined with indigenous bacteria and Agrobacterium sp I37 in absorbing of Hg in the soil. The experimental was designed as factorial with completely randomized design, consisting of 2 factors namely Bioremediation agent (A0: without bioremediation agent, A1: indigenous bacteria, A3: Agrobacterium sp I37) and Hg dosage (D0: without Hg, D1: Hg 0.3 µg.g-1, D2: Hg 0.51 µg.g-1). The results showed that the combination of Biduri with indigenous bacteria + 0.3 µg.g-1 Hg shows highest absorption of Hg at 57.19 µg (99.24% higher than control) and reduce soil Hg levels by 0.09 µg.g-1. Biduri is a hyperaccumulator plant because it is able to absorb more than 10 µg.g-1 of mercury.

One of the microalgae that are widely used in the industrial world is Spirulina platensis which has high nutritional content of protein, fatty acids, vitamins and antioxidants. In its growth, this microalgae requires media and the addition of macronutrients nitrate and phosphate which greatly affect the growth and productivity of S. platensis biomass. This study aims to determine the effect of nitrate and phosphate concentrations on S. platensis biomass on an indoor scale and to determine the optimal nitrate and phosphate concentrations to achieve maximum biomass. This research was conducted in August 2020 as an experimental method, with culturing S. platensis with the addition of different concentrations of nitrate and phosphate. The design used in this study was a Completely Randomized Design consisting of 5 treatments that are 0 ppm, 10 ppm, 20 ppm, 30 ppm, and 40 ppm, each treatment with 3 repetitions. The source of nitrate and phosphate used is NPK. Water quality parameters during culture with temperatures ranging from 29-30oC, salinity 25-26 ppt, and pH 8. The optimal concentrations of nitrate and phosphate to achieve the maximum biomass is in treatment C (30 ppm) with a total of biomass 0,43 g. Whereas in treatment D (40 ppm) the biomass did not show a significant increase because the dose was too high with a total of biomass only 0,299 g

Ultisol is the main type of land in Kalimantan, Sumatra, Papua and Sulawesi, with an area of almost 45.8 million ha or 25% of the land area of Indonesia. Ultisol has a relatively high acidity (average pH 4.5), high Al saturation, reaching 60%. The efforts to increase the fertility of ultisol soils such as the addition of organic materials such as Empty Oil Palm Bunches (OPEFB) and CFA (Coal Fly Ash) or Coal Fly Ash (CFA) improve the physical properties of Ultisol soil. Use of CFA that exceeds the limit can cause pollution especially copper (Cu) and lead (Pb). One way to recover soil from heavy metal contaminants with Phytoremediation technology, mustard (Brassica juncea L.) is one of the plants that easily absorb heavy metals so that it can be used as a Phytoremediation agent. The aims of this research to determine the use of CFA and OPEFB to fix up the ultisol soil and heavy metal content absorbed by plants. This study used Completely Randomized Design with 3 replications. The results showed that using of CFA and OPEFB can increase the available P so that it can increase the growth of mustard plants and absorption of heavy metals. By using the dozes of 54.54g CFA and 18.18g OPEFB (C3K1) can increase P- available at 181.67 m kg-1 . The uptake of heavy metals Cu and Pb in mustard plants is very high. The highest uptake in Cu reached 192.03 mg kg-1 , whereas in Pb it was 80 mg kg-1 . This number is still very high, so it is dangerous if consumed.

<p class="Els-Abstract-text">Plants growing in soil containing heavy metal  polutan such as chromium (Cr), lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd) and copper (Cu)  will be stunted, and  increase production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS). In dealing with the excess amount of ROS, plants have an enzymatic defense system, using superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and ascorbate peroxide (APX). The aim of this study was to determine and analyze the <em>Sonchus oleraceus</em> (Linnaeus, 1753) plant response to heavy metals stress, seen from the growth and antioxidative defense enzymatically. Research carried out using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with four treatments and five replicates. The metal treatment was 10 mg · L<sup>–1</sup>. The presence of heavy metals in the growing medium significantly decreased the plant height and leaf area, so the impact is on the weight of wet and dry weight. The metal treatments of Cr, Cd, Pb and Cu increase the activity of SOD and APX enzymes but decrease the activity of the CAT enzyme. Chromium is a metal that has a significant influence on the growth and activity of SOD, APX, and CAT enzymes in <em>S. oleraceus</em>.</p><div><p class="Els-keywords"><strong>Keywords:</strong> antioxidative responses; growth; heavy metal; <em>Sonchus oleraceus; </em>toxicity.</p></div>

Abstract Microalgae species Nannochloropsis sp. can used as heavy metal biosorben because of it’s adsorption capability that caused by the active cluster which contained in that species (Sembiring et al., 2008). Chlorella sp. is one of phytoplankton species that has the bioaccumulation ability of heavy metals and easily cultivated (Arifin, 1997). Lead (Pb) is a mineral belonging to microelements, is a heavy metal and is a potentially toxic material. Water bodies that have been polluted by compounds or ions Pb because can lead to the death of aquatic biota, the number of Lead (Pb) present in water bodies exceeding the proper concentration (Palar, 2004). One way to anticipate the increasing heavy metal pollution in the water is to bioremediation. The research using experimentally, the research design used was completely randomized design (CRD) consisting of four treatments with five replications. The concentrations of heavy metals Plumbum (Pb) used is 0 ppm and 0.9 ppm. The main parameters in this study is the ability of bioremediation Plumbum (Pb) by Nannochloropsis sp. and Chlorella sp. SPSS analytics normality test results and test the ability of T 95% in Nannochloropsis sp. and Chlorella sp. in absorbing heavy metals Plumbum (Pb) concentrations of 0 ppm and 0.9 ppm indicate that the data is normal and the results obtained were significantly different / significant. While the analysis of SPSS test T on heavy metal absorption capability comparison Plumbum (Pb) concentration of 0 ppm and 0.9 ppm by Nannochloropsis sp. and Chlorella sp. showed that the results were not significantly different / non significant. On average results obtained, Nannochloropsis sp. have a higher capacity than Chlorella sp. in the bioremediation process of heavy metals Plumbum (Pb).

As an external appendage, hair is exposed to multiple stresses of different origins such as particles and gases in air, or heavy metals and chemicals in water. So far, little research has addressed the impact of water pollution on hair. The present study describes a new ex vivo model that allowed us to document the adverse effects of water pollutants on the structure of hair proteins, as well as the protective potential of active cosmetic ingredients derived from a biomimetic exopolysaccharide (EPS). The impact of water pollution was evaluated on hair from a Caucasian donor repeatedly immersed in heavy metal-containing water. Heavy metal retention in and on hair was then quantified using Inductively Coupled Plasma Spectrometry (ICP/MS). The adverse effects of heavy metals on the internal structure of hair and its prevention by the EPS were assessed through measurement of keratin birefringence. Notably, the method allows the monitoring of the organization of keratin fibers and therefore the initial change on it in order to modulate the global damage in the hair. Results revealed an increasing amount of lead, cadmium and copper, following multiple exposures to polluted water. In parallel, the structure of keratin was also altered with exposures. However, heavy metal-induced keratin fiber damage could be prevented in the presence of the tested EPS, avoiding more drastic hair problems, such as lack of shine, or decrease in strength, due to damage accumulation.
