Contents of Cu, Zn, Cd and Pb in mushroom and Cu, Zn in Soil were tested by atomic absorption spectrometer (AAS), and As in samples by atomic fluorescent light (AFL). Contents of Cd and Pb in soil were analyzed by graphite furnace AAS. The results showed that contents of Cu, Pb, Cd, and As in Termitomyces microcarpus were the highest in the tested mushroom samples, which were 135.00, 13.28, 65.30, and 1.60 mg·kg^-1 (dry biomass) respectively, and the corresponding bioconcentration factor (BCF) for Cu and Cd was 57 and 1 674 separately, which was the highest data in 13 mushroom species. The capability ofBoletus griseus for Cd accumulation was very strong with BCF of 300. when people consume the wild edible mushrooms, contents of Cd and Pb should be greatly considered.展开更多

After shaking and biosorbing Cu^2+ and Pb^2+ in solution by biosorbents, the filtrates were tested by AAS and the adsorbed quantity of Cu^2+ and Pb^2+ was calculated. The biosorbents were effective in removal of Cu^2+ and Pb^2+ on the biosorbents that showed a high- est value around pH 5-6. The biosorption rate of Cu^2+ and Pb^2+ on A. polytricha biomass decreased with increasing the initial concentration of Cu^2+ and Pb^2+ in the medium. The biosorption of Cu^2+ and Pb^2+ on the biomasses follows pseudo-second order kinetics. The determined maximum biosorption capacities presented by the fungus biomass were 3.34 and 13.03 mg·g^-1 dry weight for Cu^2+ and Pb^2+, respectively by the biosorption equilibrium with Langmuir adsorption isotherm. According to the whole data analysis in each experiment of studying Cu^2+ and Pb^2+ biosorption including condition factors and adsorption isotherm, the adsorbed capacity of Pb^2+ by A. polytricha biomass was bigger than Cu^2+. The biosorption by A. polytricha was most effective when pH 5-6. The biosorbents are suitable for low Cu^2+ and Pb^2+ concentration waste-water, especially for Pb^2+ removal.展开更多
