- W2522091388 abstract "Activities in abattoirs and direct release of its waste into the environment are on the increase due to high protein demandin the country; and there is a need for proper assessment of abattoir soil for pollution. This study evaluated bioaccumulationsof heavy metals in indigenous earthworm from abattoir soils as a measure of pollution. Five replicates each of earthworms,soil and cow dung samples were collected from three abattoir sites (Lafenwa, Gbonogun and Madojutimi) in Abeokuta,Ogun State and a control site (Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, Arboretrum) beside an undisturbed streamwith no cow dung. Samples were collected at 1m interval from sampling point at each site. Heavy Metal (Cu, Zn, Pb, Cd,Co, Cr, Ni and Mn) concentrations were measured in the earthworm species (Libyodrilus violaceus, Eudrilus eugeniaeand Alma millsoni), soil and cow dung samples from the sites using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer. Somephysico-chemical parameters (pH and percentage organic matter) of the soil and cow dung from the sample sites were alsoassessed using standard methods. The heavy metals concentrations, pH and the percentage organic matter recorded inthe cow dung of all the abattoir locations were significantly higher (p<0.05) than the concentrations in their respective soilsamples. Lafenwa abattoir had the highest concentrations of heavy metals and percentage organic matter (4.57 ± 0.06) inits soil. Concentrations of Cu, Zn, Pb, Cd and Mn were highest in the tissue of earthworm species obtained from Lafenwaabattoir. The bioaccumulation factors for the metals analysed were less than unity except for Cd. Libyodrilus violaceus,Eudrilus eugeniae and Alma millsoni bioaccumulate heavy metals from the abattoir soils and the accumulation is directlyrelated to the concentration of such heavy metals in the soil. Indigenous earthworms are a good bioindicator of pollutionfor heavy metals." @default.
