Health risk assessment of heavy metals in nuts and seeds in Gansu Province, China
The popularity of nuts is growing, due to their nutritional properties and beneficial effects on human health. So they may be a source of exposure to heavy metals. To evaluate the health risks of consuming nuts to residents in Gansu Province, this study used ICP-MS to determine the Cd, Pb and Hg content in 151 nuts samples and conducted risk assessment by deterministic and probabilistic methods. The results showed that the median contents of Cd, Pb and Hg in nuts were 7.40E-3, 5.80E-2 and 9.00E-4 mg·kg−1, while in seeds were 3.89E-2, 4.47E-2 and 1.10E-3 mg·kg−1. Cd exceeded the Chinese maximum residue limits in 9.93 % (15/151) of the samples. At the P95 exposure level, the deterministic assessment showed that hazard quotients (HQs) of Hg, Cd, and Pb were below 1, hazard index (HI) was also below 1, cancer risk (CR) of Cd in nuts was below 10−4, but CR of Cd in seeds was above 10−4. In probability assessment, the HQs of Cd, Pb and Hg were less than 1, but the CR of Cd is greater than 10−4. In summary, Hg and Pb in nuts and seeds did not pose a health risk, but Cd may pose a carcinogenic risk to consumers.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Food Composition and Analysis publishes manuscripts on scientific aspects of data on the chemical composition of human foods, with particular emphasis on actual data on composition of foods; analytical methods; studies on the manipulation, storage, distribution and use of food composition data; and studies on the statistics, use and distribution of such data and data systems. The Journal''s basis is nutrient composition, with increasing emphasis on bioactive non-nutrient and anti-nutrient components. Papers must provide sufficient description of the food samples, analytical methods, quality control procedures and statistical treatments of the data to permit the end users of the food composition data to evaluate the appropriateness of such data in their projects.
The Journal does not publish papers on: microbiological compounds; sensory quality; aromatics/volatiles in food and wine; essential oils; organoleptic characteristics of food; physical properties; or clinical papers and pharmacology-related papers.
