Lead accumulation and its histological impact on Cymodocea serrulata seagrass in the laboratory

The purpose of this study was to determine the concentration of lead (Pb) in Cymodocea serrulata tissues (roots, rhizomes, and leaves) using the AAS method, also to figure out Pb’s impact on seagrass’ histology and elements using the SEM-EDX Mapping method. The results showed that the higher the con...
