It is well known that cadmium damages the testes of experimental animals although the mechanism of action has not been completely clucidated. Two possibilities have been postulated for the primary mechanism of toxicity: 1) circulatory failure due to vascular damage and 2) decreased utilization of zinc by spermatogenic cells due to a competitive …

Urban stormwater often contains metals at levels of environmental significance, including cadmium, zinc, copper, and lead (see Stormwater Treatment Processes). Metals in water are most commonly measured as "total" concentration (unfiltered samples) and "dissolved" concentration (filtered samples, generally through a 0.45 μm filter).
