Changes in element availability induced by sterilization in heavy metal contaminated substrates: A comprehensive study.
Journal of Hazardous Materials（2019）
Abstract
•Metal contaminated soil substrates need sterilization for microcosm experiments.•180°C dry heat changes mineral composition.•γ-ray irradiation changes hydroxide forming metal, metal and nutrient associations.•Autoclaving seems least destructive for typical metal contaminated substrates.
