Health Risk Assessment of Heavy Metals in Sediment of Tropical Freshwater Stream
An investigation of the heavy metals in the bed sediment of Asunle stream was carried out to assess how seriously the sediment is polluted using Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES). The potential health risk assessment was calculated for a lifetime exposure (ingestion...
