On the other hand, strong or chelating acids tend to cause leaching.
The cobalt mediator was chosen for these experiments as previous work using the iodide/tri-iodide redox system caused leaching of gold from the electrodes almost immediately and was deemed unsuitable for further use.
Competition removal by herbiciding spots (area around tree to which herbicide is applied for vegetation control) around trees at planting also causes increased leaching losses.
These materials have a high resistance towards chemical and biological degradation and do not cause leaching in the soil [58].
Podravina is an area of relatively intensive agriculture where, according to modern agricultural demands, higher doses of organic and mineral fertilizers are applied, causing leaching of the soil and nitrate input in aquatic ecosystems.
Figure 4f shows that southern and southeast part of the study area have high nitrate concentration, and they are not healthy for drinking consumption due to the human activities in the study area causing leaching of nitrogen from farm fertilizer, feedlots, and septic tanks.
Harsh treatment with strong HCl did not affect the fiber number or cause leaching but the biological activity was reduced; strong NaOH reduced the fiber number and biological activity, and caused marked leaching of Si.
During the surface modification, it may cause leaching of entrapped drug from NPs during overnight incubation period which may lead to reduction in entrapment of drug.
They cite several studies showing that suboptimal storage conditions such as prolonged exposure to sunlight and high temperatures can cause leaching of chemicals from PET bottles into fluid contents, and point out that "cell toxicity was observed for water samples of the same lot of three different brands purchased from the same retailer".
