Trace organic contaminants within solid matrices along
The distribution of contaminants between solid and dissolved phases differs according to the properties of both the solid phase and the TrOC (Kodešová et al., 2015; Nunes et al., 2019). The physico-chemical properties of the TrOC, such as the charge, K ow and K oc, may have an impact ( Vazquez-Roig et al., 2012 ; Zhou and Broodbank, 2014 ).

Trace Minerals and Livestock: Not Too Much Not Too Little
A soil pH of 6.5 is considered to be the optimum for a soil containing trace minerals in well-balanced amounts. At soil pH values below 6.5 the availability of Mo and Se is reduced and the availability of Fe, Mn, Co, Zn, and B is increased; the opposite is true at soil pH values above 6.5 [ 137 ].

Dietary Trace Minerals
Abstract. Dietary trace minerals are pivotal and hold a key role in numerous metabolic processes. Trace mineral deficiencies (except for iodine, iron, and zinc) do not often develop spontaneously in adults on ordinary diets; infants are more vulnerable because their growth is rapid and intake varies. Trace mineral imbalances can result …
