Summary:Metals are ubiquitous chemical entities that participate in an extensive array of biological processes. Despite their vital role in life support, excessive exposure may have neurotoxic consequences, posing a threat to public health. Excessive metal exposure has been related to neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative illnesses, and it adds significantly to the environmental risk of neurological disorders. In recent decades, the elimination of toxic metals from biological fluids has garnered increasing interest. Magnetic Nanoparticles Capturing agent (MNCA)-based magnetic separating has recently been utilized as an effective adsorbent for the removal of toxic metals from plasma and aqueous solutions. It's the next generation of toxic metal poisoning therapy. These article review focuses on the present trends in the adsorption of toxic metals such as cadmium and lead as they are components of the atmosphere's crust and are prevalent ecologically.
