Nickel is a transition element extensively distributed in the environment, air, water, and soil. It may derive from natural sources and anthropogenic activity. Although nickel is ubiquitous in the environment, its functional role as a trace element for animals and human beings has not been yet recognized.

Lead- and cadmium-based batteries pose the largest environmental concerns, so much so that nickel-cadmium was banned in Europe in 2009. Attempts are being made to also ban the lead-based battery, but no suitable replacement is available as was the case by substituting nickel-cadmium with nickel-metal-hydride.

Chronic exposure to chromium, nickel or their combined exposure can interfere with the content of micronutrients in the colon contents of mice. As shown in Fig. 2, compared with the normal group, the levels of trace elements in
Cadmium-induced chronic toxicity is featured by progressive drastic effects due to a gradual accumulation of the toxic heavy metal in different tissues. 1 Cadmium toxicity can provoke oxidative
6 Safe use of nickel in the workplace Module 1: toxicology and hazard classication of nickel substances 1.1 SUMMARY Nickel is a naturally occurring element that exists in nature mainly in the form of sulfide, oxide, and silicate
Certain five heavy metals viz. arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr)(VI), mercury (Hg), and lead (Pb) are non-threshold toxins and can exert toxic effects at very low concentrations. These heavy metals are known as most problematic heavy metals and as toxic heavy metals (THMs). Several industrial activities and some natural processes are responsible
Heavy metals are naturally occurring elements that have a high atomic weight and a density at least 5 times greater than that of water. Their multiple industrial, domestic, agricultural, medical and technological applications have led to
Cadmium, chromium, nickel, arsenic, copper, mercury, lead and zinc are the most common heavy metal pollutants that cause severe toxicity in fishes. Development of oxidative stress is the fundamental molecular mechanism of metal toxicity.

Nickel, a transition element, is a durable, shiny metal with a silvery-white appearance. Discovered by Axel Fredrik Cronstedt in 1751, it has been utilized in metal alloys for over 1700 years. Nickel occurs naturally in soil and bodies of water; it can also be synthetically produced for industrial applications. Its resistance to oxidation makes it commonly used in

The process of metal absorption and accumulation in the plant tissues is called phytoextraction, and in the case of nickel, the phytoremediation capability, which cost is not excessive, depends on the level of nickel concentration in soil. In the intrinsic pathway, Ni 2+ allows the Cyt C release from the mitochondria to the cytosol.
