Natural radioactivity and associated hazard indices from a gas field (Fenchuganj, Bangladesh): Assessment and management guidelines

It is crucial to carry out thorough research and risk assessments in the oil and gas production and processing sectors because of the possible health risks associated with the redistribution of naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORMs). Radioactivity levels in surface soi...

Effects of Sodium Hypochlorite Washing on Eggshell Membrane Integrity, Microbial Decontamination, and Trace Element-Related Dietary Risk in Poultry and Duck Eggs

Abstract This study examined baseline trace element exposure in poultry and duck eggs consumed in Bangladesh and assessed the impact of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) washing on microbial decontamination and eggshell membrane integrity. Fifteen elements were measured in yolk, albume...

Assessment of trace element distribution, bioaccumulation, and health risks in silver pomfret from major fishing grounds of the Bay of Bengal

Trace elements, both essential and toxic, are widespread in marine ecosystems and can pose health risks through bioaccumulation in seafood. This study assessed trace element concentrations in silver pomfret ( Pampus argenteus ) from three fishing zones in the Bay of Bengal—south...
