Toxicity of Aquatic System and Remediation: The Contemporary Issues by Susmita M

Description: Toxicity of Aquatic System and Remediation by Susmita Mukherjee, Sanket J. Joshi, Sonali Paul, Rita Kundu Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description This book includes a discussion on the different routes of contamination, the food-chain transport possibilities of pesticide pollutants, which are very contemporary and required topics of research. It also includes relevant discussions on how to get away with the toxicity. Publisher Description The eco-friendly remediation technologies for the degraded environment are indeed the "need of the hour". Even though the regulatory mechanisms are in place to control the discharge of untreated contaminants into the natural environment, still, we could see a different picture; hence, remediation and restoration of the environment becomes an ardent requisite. The present-day fast pace of industrialization without proper disposal planning is impacting the water bodies adversely, generating the need for green management technologies. It is worth mentioning that these environment-friendly technologies are most cost-effective as well. The advancements in biotechnology have paved the way to mitigate the problem.The primary audience of this book are the students and researchers who are working in the field of toxicology and bioremediation of aquatic environments. We have primarily focused in this book on bioremediation of aquatic system toxicity, considering this as an environment-friendly system and having the least adverse effects. Hence this book aims to bring forward together on a single platform the latest research in aquatic resource management, which includes the discussions and discourses on the degradation and the effect and the remediation.This book includes a discussion on the different sources of contamination from industries or by the usage of commercial pesticides or even fertilizers. These contaminants, if discharged in their toxic form as effluent, cause harm to the aquatic systems and the subsoil and create the possibility of groundwater contamination. This book includes a discussion on the different routes of contamination and the food-chain transport possibilities of pesticide pollutants, which are very contemporary and required topics of research. It also includes relevant discussions on how to get rid of the toxicity.

Her research interest is to study and explore the potential of underutilized/unexplored natural /synthetic organic or inorganic compounds to regulate cell proliferation by inducing cell death either through apoptosis /autophagy /any other way, in cervical cancer cells in vitro. At the same time, she is also interested in identifying the bioactive compounds and their mode of action in regulating cell proliferation. She is also working on cadmium accumulation and its amelioration in rice grains. She also works on engineered nanocomposite mediated nutrient delivery and growth enhancement in rice plants to protect soil health due to overuse of fertilizers. She has received financial assistance from UGC, ICMR, WBDBT, WBDST and UGC-UPEII for her research activities. She has published her findings in reputed journals. Till date eight students have submitted their work and eight students are working for the Doctoral degree.
