At the bottom of this food chain, algae will feed fish, which feed bigger fish, which will feed in turn seafarers and landlubbers alike.

but the results highlight how man-made chemicals are now found throughout the food chain. the highest quantities of medicines were found in cows milk.

Food quality control laboratories could use this new tool to detect these drugs before they enter the food chain.

They keep populations of animals lower down on the food chain in check. Without them for example those same farmers may have their crops overrun by hungry rabbits.

but this simply serves to highlight the importance of understanding how infectious bacteria get into the food chain in the first place.

Pathogenic E coli are passed typically to humans from ruminant animals (cows or sheep) via faecal contamination in the food chain or through consumption of raw milk or meat products.

but Flemming Scheutz, head of THE WHO Collaborative Centre for Reference and Research on Escherichia and Klebsiella in Copenhagen, suggests that the bacteria might not have originated in the food chain at all.

"Their levels increase in orders of magnitude as they move further along the food chain, says Xu.

Because some persistent compounds accumulate at the top of the food chain, humans can be exposed to POPS by eating meat and fish.

With the food chain's bottom tier knocked out most animals would die off quickly but scavengers picking over the dead remains could last until the cold killed them.

since the food chain in rivers/oceans would be disrupted by the end of photosynthesis so even canned tuna/salmon would be used up within a few weeks.

We are part of the food chain not separate from it. The top of the food chain is actually the most vulnerable

since it relies on everything leading up to it. If any part of the food chain is compromised weã¢Â#Â#re cooked.<

Pet food manufacturers also make heavy use of the secondary products from the human food chain. That's great from a sustainability standpoint because we're using the products that would otherwise not be used said Swanson.

The grazers also serve as food themselves for animals higher on the food chain. Drifting seaweed usually thought of as a nuisance also plays a part in this process providing an important habitat for the grazing animals that keep the seagrass clean.

#X-rays reveal uptake of nanoparticles by soybean cropsmetals contained in nanoparticles can enter into the food chain.

and whether engineered nanoparticles can enter into the food chain. The study was published on 6 february 2013 in the journal ACS Nano.

This is why it is very important to study the interactions of crops with nanoparticles as their possible translocation into the food chain starts here. says Jorge Gardea-Torresdey a Professor

but still reaches the food chain and the next soya bean plant generation. adds Jorge Gardea-Torresdey. One must keep in mind that once engineered nanoparticles enter the food chain this is an accumulative process.

Tolerable levels today can become dangerous tomorrow. This is why it is important to study not only whether man-made nanoparticles can be taken up from soil

The lack of any significant biomagnification through the food chain indicates that there is very little risk of harm from exposure to these CUPS in this region.

and internal organs as they move up the food chain. Biomagnification has been implicated as the cause of higher concentrations of many long-used pesticides

They examined the vegetation-caribou-wolf food chain in the area where the presence of other organic contaminants such as legacy pesticides

By testing vegetation the researchers found large enough concentrations of CUPS to confirm that they were entering the food chain.

But this needs to be confirmed in other food chains in the Arctic before general trends can be established that are applicable to larger data sets.

and in food chains compared to legacy contaminants. Morris has widened his research to include marine food chains

and is also studying the effects of a range of organic flame retardants on the same terrestrial food chain.

The animal samples used in the research were provided all by subsistence hunters and trappers. There would be no study possible at all without their co-operation Morris said.

Forest debris that drains into lakes is important to freshwater food chainsresearch shows forest debris that drains into lakes is an important contributor to freshwater food chains--bolstering fish diets to the extent that increased forest

The researchers warn that as forests are eroded through human activities such as logging the impacts will be felt in aquatic as well as terrestrial food chains.

Carbon from forest debris has a different elemental mass than carbon produced by algae in the aquatic food chain.

and leaves instead of aquatic food chain sources said Dr Andrew Tanentzap from Cambridge's Department of Plant sciences

The researchers worked along the food chains in the mini deltas. Where you have dissolved more forest matter you have more bacteria more bacteria equals more zooplankton;

Forest loss is damaging aquatic food chains of which many humans are a part. Story Source: The above story is provided based on materials by University of Cambridge.

The work shows that these bacteria are transported not simply through the food chain in an inert manner

as a result of strict control measures at all stages of the food chain from plough to plate they do still occur as was seen in 2013

when contaminated watercress entered the food chain resulting in seven people being hospitalised. By understanding the mechanisms of how the bacteria interact with plants the researchers are hoping to find targeted ways to stop the binding reducing the risk of food contamination.
