Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect Cadmium toxicity significantly increased lettuce APX activity.
- Intervention effect Cadmium toxicity significantly increased lettuce SOD activity.
- Intervention effect Iron application substantially decreased lettuce SOD activity.
- Intervention effect Sewage sludge application substantially decreased lettuce SOD activity.
- Intervention effect Cadmium application significantly increased soil DTPA-Cd.
- Intervention effect Cadmium application significantly increased plant DTPA-Cd.
- Intervention effect Applying 50 kg Fe ha(-1) to cadmium-contaminated soil decreased soil DTPA-Cd.
- Intervention effect Sewage sludge reduced soil cadmium concentration compared with cadmium application alone.
- Intervention effect Sewage sludge reduced plant cadmium concentration compared with cadmium application alone.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that iron can alleviate cadmium toxicity.
- Mechanism The authors conclude that urban sewage sludge did not cause severe toxicity because its heavy-metal content was low.
- Mechanism The authors conclude that sewage sludge can inhibit cadmium intake because of its organic matter content.
