Abstract/Summary

The objective of the study was to find out if Salvinia minima can take up Pb2+ in solution. The plants were cultured in nutrient medium for 96 hours then exposed to Pb2+, at three concentrations, 5.00 mg/L, 10.0 mg/L, and 20.0 mg/. Distilled water was used in the control plants. Results indicated that the higher the Pb2+ in the medium, the greater the amount of the Pb2+ taken up by the S. minima.
