• Reduction of heavy metal load in food chain: technology assessment (2011, background): “With the help of rhizofiltration, groundwater, surface water, and waste water with low contaminant concentrations is remediated ( Ensley 2000 ).”
• Influence of EDTA and citric acid on lead-induced oxidative stress to Vicia faba roots (2014, background): “These organo-metallic complexes vary greatly in term of stability, solubility and chronic toxicity compare to free metal ions (Evangelou et al. 2007; Shahid et al. 2012c).”
• Heavy Metals in Contaminated Soils: A Review of Sources, Chemistry, Risks and Best Available Strategies for Remediation (2011, background): “…to physiological barriers in roots either due to greater concentration of metals or EDTA or metal-EDTA complexes, and (v) increased mobility of metals within the plant body when complexed with EDTA compared to free-metal ions facilitating the translocation of metals from roots to shoots [134, 137].”
• Arsenic Uptake, Toxicity, Detoxification, and Speciation in Plants: Physiological, Biochemical, and Molecular Aspects (2018, background): “Due to As toxicity, the rate of transpiration was reduced dramatically in Avena sativa seedlings [195].”
• Metallophores and Trace Metal Biogeochemistry (2015, background): “This risk is particularly acute with environmentally persistent synthetic chelators, and thus, there is an interest in the development and application of biodegradable chelating agents with shorter residence times in soils (Evangelou et al. 2007; Nowack et al. 2006).”
