- Abstract
The article presents the study on the effects of monosodium glutamate wastewater on Ctenopharyngodon idellus fish and the cabbage Brassica capestris. The MSG wastewater samples were provided respectively by three mills located in Nanjing, Zhenjiang and Yizheng in Jiangsu Province, in China. In conclusion, the concentrations of metals in untreated MSG wastewater exceed the levels cited in all the four standards examined in this research. The untreated wastewater is acutely toxic to the fish. Treated wastewater can increase the survival rate and promote the growth of the fish C. idellus. It does not inhibit the germination of the seeds of the Chinese cabbage B. capestris, but, on the contrary, promotes its growth at a proper concentration
