“…On one hand, the TM of Zn with ecological risk level has been screened out for human health risk assessment based on the simulation of metal species. On the other hand, exposure to excessive zinc contamination may result in zinc poisoning with the symptoms of vomiting, diarrhea, death, etc (Wentink et al, 1985;Wang et al, 2008;Board, 2013). Consequently, it was essential to effectively and accurately quantify the health risk of zinc on human.…”

Soil heavy metal pollution had become a global issue involving environmental safety and human health risks. A methodology was explored to quantify the sources of heavy metals in the soils and investigate the spatial distributions of heavy metals by the gridded spatial scale. The case study was implemented in the industrial waste sites in Suzhou city, Jiangsu province. Zinc (Zn) was screened out as the targeted metal (TM) through the potential ecological risk assessment, the species of which was simulated by the geochemical software PHREEQC. The aim of this research was to determine the dominant metal species of TM with potential hazardous health risk to local people to achieve key prevention and pollution control. Herein, according to the morphological evolution of metal species, the activity and concentration of the Zn species was calculated for both carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic health risk assessment. The evaluation of the optimized human health risk demonstrated that the associated health risk of Zn (II) depended predominantly on its metal speciation and was also affected by acidity and soil organic matter. Overall, the optimized carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risk value of Zn2S32− for adults was 2.01E-04 and for children was 1.31 respectively, resulting in corresponding hazardous risk to human, which accounted for high risk level of 61.5% and 58.5%, respectively. This method could provide a reference for the decision-making of soil heavy metal pollution control and targeted hypotoxic convertion of metal species and remediation for certain heavy metal of polluted area.

“…Among the farm animals, sheep and cattle belong to the less tolerant species (Un derwood, 1977). In the Netherlands, no zinc toxicity had been reported, until re cently in foals (Hoskam et al, 1982) and in calves (Wentink et al, 1985) given zinccontaminated roughage.…”

The zinc content of cow's liver was estimated in livers collected from slaughterhouses in The Netherlands. A total of 333 samples taken in autumn and early winter had an average Zn content 125+or-29 mg/kg DM, with 32 outliers (Zn 212 mg/kg and higher). The distribution of the high outliers, along a line extending from NW to SE over the country, may be related to geophysical factors, but also to feeding practice. Some very low Zn contents could be found by subtraction of the residual active Zn that is part of enzymes, about 90 mg/kg, and logarithmic transformation. Thus 29 low outliers could be traced, all with effective Zn storage below 10 mg/kg. Hence in the total material, nearly 10% was gravely deficient, some 40% suboptimal, and 10% excessively rich in Zn. Liver Zn seems a good means of assessment of the liver status of cows, on a much shorter time basis than for typical storage elements like copper. As a means of investigating interactions, the method was less satisfactory, at least for Zn relative to copper and iron. (Abstract retrieved from CAB Abstracts by CABI’s permission)

“…11,15 Predisposition to TM-associated toxicities and deficiencies can be dependent on age, breed, and environmental factors such as diet and regional geology. 4,17 Clinical manifestations resulting from the hindrance of such processes may be associated with impaired immune system function, morbidity, decreased production, and death. 6,7,13 The interactions shared among minerals are intricate.…”

Trace mineral status is a critical component of bovine health. Impairment of physiological processes, caused by trace mineral toxicities or deficiencies, can be potential underlying factors of disease. Historically, the status of critical trace minerals, such as copper, manganese, selenium, and zinc, has been evaluated through the analysis of hepatic tissue. We assessed variation of these 4 elements between homogenized liver and samples of 0.02 g, 0.1 g, 0.5 g, and 1.0 g. We also evaluated concentration differences in copper, manganese, selenium, and zinc among samples stored under different durations. No differences in concentrations of copper, manganese, selenium, or zinc were observed among samples stored frozen for 3, 7, and 14 d post-collection. Statistical differences in concentrations of selenium and zinc were observed between 0.02-g biopsy samples and larger samples. Moisture content differed between 0.02-g biopsies and larger samples and over time. Results indicate that as little as 0.02 g of hepatic tissue dried to ~0.006 g is reliable for interpretation of trace mineral status and determination of toxicities and deficiencies in cattle pertaining to copper, manganese, selenium, and zinc, despite the small differences observed.
