Human health risk associated with nitrates in some vegetables: A case study in Gonabad

Food Chemistry Advances, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 4, P. 100721 - 100721

Published: May 11, 2024

Vegetables are vital parts of the human diet, however, they also may contain substances such as nitrate which can affect health. This cross-sectional research was conducted with objective to assess health risk citizens in Gonabad from exposure through consumption some vegetables. Common vegetables namely, cucumber, carrot, tomato, potato, lettuce, cauliflower, onion and mushroom were analyzed for contents. The values estimated daily intakes (EDIs), target hazard quotients (HQs) computed estimate non-carcinogenic risk. Nitrate concentrations selected ranged 25 2100 mg/kg (fresh weight). highest concentration found lettuce (2100 mg/kg). EDI exceeded acceptable intake nitrate. calculated HQ ≥ 1 children, signifying age group. For teenagers group, 1. Furthermore, unsafe considering related adults. Therefore, control possible contamination sources minimization vegetable recommended.

Occurrence of 5–Hydroxymethylfurfural, Acrylamide, 3–Monochloro–1,2–Propanoldiol and Melamine in Infant Formulas: What Do We Know About These Compounds?

Toxics, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 13(3), P. 161 - 161

Published: Feb. 25, 2025

In the manufacture of infant formulas, from raw materials to final product, ingredients are subject high temperatures which favor formation undesirable compounds, some them Maillard reaction, such as 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and acrylamide, others thermal processing, compound 3-monochloro-1,2-propanoldiol (3-MCPD). Finally, there is also a risk that product may be adulterated with components melamine cyanuric acid. Due vulnerability infants during first stage life, this review answers main question: How much these compounds present in commercial what do we know about them? Accordingly, divided into three sections: (1) reaction products (HMF acrylamide), (2) contained vegetable oils (3-MCPD), (3) fraudulent and/or adulterant (melamine acid). The objective report on occurrence HMF, 3-MCPD, melamine, acid formulas order support more solid public health policies related feeding. These represent infants, possibly contributing kidney neurological damage causing mutations increase development childhood cancer. Therefore, it necessary promote breastfeeding establish stricter controls, scientific evidence effects reduce their short- long-term infants’ health.
