Several metabolic systems in Eisenia foetida competent to achieve an intracellular Cr(VI) reduction are described. Evidence that earthworms act as effective scavengers of hexavalent chromium from the environment is also provided. Results suggest that E. foetida may play an important role during occasional Cr(VI) pollution of soils.
本文描述了赤子爱胜蚓中几种能够实现细胞内六价铬还原的代谢系统。同时也提供了蚯蚓作为环境中六价铬有效清除者的证据。结果表明，在土壤偶尔受到六价铬污染期间，赤子爱胜蚓可能发挥重要作用。
