Groundwater is the major source of freshwater for irrigation, drinking, and sanitation in India. 50% of urban water requirement and 85% of rural domestic water requirements are fulfilled by groundwater. Industrialization, unmanaged dumping of waste, extensive application of pesticides and other ...
Gas-to-particle conversion of atmospheric ammonia and sampling artifacts of ammonium in spring of Beijing Water-soluble inorganic ions and gaseous pollutants were measured by Ion Chromatography. Results showed that the concentrations of NH3, NH4 + and PM2.5 had... LF Wei,JC Duan,JH Tan,... -...

In addition to such end of pipe solutions a policy change in the use pattern of persistent toxic chemicals is inevitable. In addition, inventories for the location and quantity of POPs in landfills, together with an assessment of their threat to ecosystems, drinking water and food resources are...
were detected in surface water [9,10], sediment [11], groundwater [12] and drinking water [13] at varying degrees. In considering the discrepancy of physical and chemical properties of micropollutants, they may lead to different migration rules and ecological effects in the environment [14,15...
TH of rainwater shows that rainwater is soft and can be used for drinking and domestic purposes. On average, the ion composition of the rainwater of studied region follows the sequence> NO3- > Na+ > K+ > Ca2+ > Mg2+ > NO2-. The analytical result shows that average wet deposition ...
of groundwater for drinking in the northern parts of India support the easy-to-detect, low-cost (<1 USD), rapid (within 5 min), and reliable detection limit (ppb levels) performance of our device for the on-site detection and monitoring of multiple heavy metals in resource-limited ...
The gut microbiota contributes to diverse aspects of host physiology, ranging from immunomodulation to drug metabolism. Changes in the gut microbiota composition are associated with various diseases as well as with the response to medications. It is ther
