Abstract

Anchovy is widely used in many dishes and are among the most consumed marine fish among Malaysians. Anchovies are one of the marine organisms that can accumulate pollutants including heavy metals. Numerous studies were conducted to minimize the heavy metals concentration in seafood such as various cooking and processing methods, and advanced treatments with the aid of chelating agents. Among th

Abstract

The detection of perfluorochemicals (PFCs) in various environmental compartments has raised attention and driven countermeasures to reduce their prevalence. Phytoremediation provides a feasible option for PFCs removal from the environment. Crops such as maize, carrots, lettuce, tomato and spinach have demonstrated the ability to phytoextract and phytoaccumulate PFCs. The bioconcentration factor

Supply of water in general, as well as water quality, is a key challenge in Malaysia. Lakes and reservoirs serve as residential, commercial, agricultural, navigational, hydroelectric, and recreational water supplies. As rivers provide 98 percent of the wor
