Assessment of Heavy Metals in Organic and Non-Organic Vegetables Post Severe Tropical Cyclone Gabrielle: A cross-sectional comparative analysis.

2025-12-26

Abstract excerpt

Abstract* Background Heavy metals such as cadmium, lead, and mercury are ubiquitous in the environment, accumulating in plants, animals, water and human food. Human exposure through the consumption of vegetable crops is a global concern because such metals may be toxic even in trace amounts. There are many factors influencing heavy metal concentrations in vegetables including, soil properties, growing practices an...
