Arsenic problem in Bangladesh can be seen as an example of how quick fix contribue to a policy failure and result in disaster. Sustainable policy intervention and mainstreaming the mitigation strategies can be the only effective sollution to this problem. The presentation is the answer of the question set at the outset of the slides.

it was my first presentation.it would be helpfull for engineering students as well as the reasearch scholars.in this slides i used best of my effort .
so please visit my slideshare and dont forget to give feedback......
This presentation was presented during the 1 Parallel session on Theme 1, Monitoring, mapping, measuring, reporting and verification (MRV) of SOC, of the Global Symposium on Soil Organic Carbon that took place in Rome 21-23 March 2017. The presentation was made by Mr. Rainer Baritz from FAO, in FAO Hq, Rome

A brief presentation on Arsenic poisoning encompassing 40 slides - also included is a quiz on toxicology at the end. This a special article from Telugudoctors.co.in; Hope you find it useful and informative. We have tried to make it as attractive, brief and informative as possible. Your advice would be useful in perfecting our future slides.

In recent years, nanoparticles that have size of 1-100 nm is widely used for textile, pharmacy,
cosmetic and treatment of industrial wastewater. Producing and using of nanoparticles widely, causes
important accumulation in nature and toxicity on ecosystem. Knowledge of potential toxicity of nanoparticles is
limited. In this study, six different nanoparticles nano-zinc oxide, nano-silicon dioxide, nano-cerium oxide,
nano-aluminum oxide, nano-hafnium oxide, and nano-tantalum oxide which used commonly, were studied to
investigate toxic impacts on organisms. We studied nine different acute toxicity test (bacteria – Escherichia coli
(gram negative bacteria) ; bacteria – Bacillus cereus (gram positive bacteria) ; bacteria – Vibrio fischeri
(bioluminescences bacteria) ; methane Archae Bacteria ; yeast – Candida albicans ; mold – Aspergillus niger ;
algae – Chlorella sp. ; Crustacea – Daphnia magna ; lepistes - Poecillia reticula) for the effect of
nanoparticles to different trophic levels. In general, the most toxic nanoparticle is nano-zinc oxide and the least
toxic nanoparticle is nano-hafnium oxide. Among the used organisms in acute toxicity test; the most sensitive
organism is algae - Chlorella sp ;the most resistant organism is fish- Poecillia reticula.
