Evaluation of soil heavy metal(loid)s contamination and its impact on food safety in the suburbs of an industrial city, Henan Province, China

Abstract Rapid industrial development increases soil contamination risks in suburban agricultural areas; however, the extent and sources of heavy metal(loid)s pollution in the soil during this process are not well understood. This study investigated the concentrations, spatial distribution, and pote...
