Lead uptake of Salvinia natans
Uptake of the heavy metal lead (Pb) by the floating fern Salvinia natans Kunth, was studied using locally cultivated plant samples and standard solutions of Pb2+. The metal concentration reduction was quite rapid at room temperature and normal photosynthetic conditions. Lead concentrations (approxim...
