“…In addition, the most elevated heavy metal was Cr in all of the studied biological samples. However, there was an elevation that was greater than the references in group 2 that were not used in the studied samples; this may be that they used other food or daily products that affected the level of the studied heavy metals, and this agrees with previous publications that report food contamination with heavy metals in other selected foods, fresh fruits, vegetables, meat, and fish from local Saudi Arabian market [15,[23][24][25][26] or other cosmetics products where heavy metals are widely diffused in pigmented makeup products [14].…”

Lifestyles, genetic predispositions, environmental factors, and geographical regions are considered key factors of heavy metals initiatives related to health issues. Heavy metals enter the body via the environment, daily lifestyle, foods, beverages, cosmetics, and other products. The accumulation of heavy metals in the human body leads to neurological issues, carcinogenesis, failure of multiple organs in the body, and a reduction in sensitivity to treatment. We screened for Cr, Al, Pb, and Cd in selected foods, beverages, and cosmetics products depending on questionnaire outcomes from female volunteers. We also screened for Cr, Al, Pb, and Cd on hair, nails, and serum samples using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) from the same volunteers, and we analyzed the serum cholinesterase and complete blood picture (CBC). We performed an AutoDock study on Cr, Al, Pb, and Cd as potential ligands. Our results indicate that the most elevated heavy metal in the cosmetic sample was Al. In addition, in the food and beverages samples, it was Pb and Al, respectively. The results of the questionnaire showed that 71 percent of the female volunteers used the studied cosmetics, food, and beverages, which were contaminated with Cr, Al, Pb, and Cd, reflecting the high concentration of Cr, Al, Cd, and Pb in the three different types of biological samples of sera, nails, and hair of the same females, with 29 percent of the female volunteers not using the products in the studied samples. Our results also show an elevated level of cholinesterase in the serum of group 1 that was greater than group 2, and this result was confirmed by AutoDock. Moreover, the negative variation in the CBC result was compared with the reference ranges. Future studies should concentrate on the actions of these heavy metal contaminations and their potential health consequences for various human organs individually.

“…e recommended daily intake of manganese should not exceed levels from 3.0 to 9.0 mg [34]. According to the literature, Cr and Mn contents in canned fish were found to be as follows: in the muscles of fish from Turkey, 0.19-2.80 and 0.08-3.88 mg·kg −1 [35]; in canned tuna and mackerel from the USA, Cr 0.0-0.067 and 0.01-0.30 mg·kg −1 , Mn 0.0-0.001 and 0.0-0.001 mg·kg −1 [18]; in canned tuna from Turkey, Cr 1.08 mg·kg −1 , Mn 0.90 mg·kg −1 [36]; in the canned fish samples from Iran, Cr 0.90-1.87 mg·kg −1 , Mn 1.20-2.70 mg·kg −1 [37]; in canned tuna from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, 0.0029 for Mn, 0.0005 for Cr [38]; in the canned tuna from Mexico, for Cr 0.02 to 0.65 mg·kg −1 , 0.07 to 0.38 mg·kg −1 in the fresh fish samples [39]; in canned fish from China, Cr 0.08-1.28 mg·kg −1 [40]; in canned tuna from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Cr 0.10-0.57 mg·kg −1 [41]; in muscles of fresh fish from Iraq, Mn 0.11-1.86 mg·kg −1 dry weight, in the muscles of frozen fish species 0.13-4.50 mg·kg −1 dry weight, and in canned fish 0.13-0.81 mg kg −1 dry weight [42]; in canned tuna from Ghana, Mn 0.001-0.057 mg·kg −1 [43]. Cr content in Bangladesh fish ranged from 2.09 to 7.18 mg·kg −1 , and Mn from 23.23 to 25.65 mg·kg −1 [44].…”

“…In humans, the levels of nickel absorption are very low, of the order of over ten mg·kg −1 . According to the literature data, the level of Ni in canned fish was as follows: in canned tuna from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, 0.09-0.48 mg·kg −1 [41]; in the muscles of fish from Turkey, 0.03-0.63 mg·kg −1 [35]; in canned fish from Iraq, 0.0001 to 0.0003 mg·kg −1 [52]; in muscles from Iraq, 0.11-0.31 mg·kg −1 dry weight, in fresh fish 0.37-2.30 mg·kg −1 dry weight, in the muscles of frozen fish species and in canned fish 0.33-1.96 mg·kg −1 dry weight [42]; in canned tuna from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, 0.0018 mg·kg −1 for Ni [38]; in the canned fish samples, 0.58-1.04 mg·kg −1 [37]. In a study conducted in the USA, the content of Ni in canned fish was in the range from <LOQ to 0.783 mg·kg −1 [18].…”

e objective of the study was to determine the content of cobalt, silver, tin, antimony, lead, mercury, cadmium, arsenic, vanadium, chromium, manganese, nickel, and uranium in canned meat and canned fish by means of ICP-MS apparatus and mercury analyzer. Also, probabilistic risk assessment (non carcinogenic) was estimated by models including target hazard quotient (THQ). It was found that Mn was the element with the highest concentration in the analyzed products, with average concentration of 0.216 mg·kg −1 in canned meat and 1.196 mg·kg −1 in canned fish. e average contents of other elements were as follows (respectively, for canned meat and fish): Co 0.018 and 0.028 mg·kg −1 , Ag 0.0386 and 0.0053 mg·kg −1 , Sn 0.059 and 0.200 mg·kg −1 , Sb 0.0268 and 0.0377 mg·kg −1 , Pb 0.202 and 0.068 mg·kg −1 , Hg 0.00003 and 0.02676 mg·kg −1 , Cd 0.00496 and 0.0202 mg·kg −1 , As 0.002 and 0.857 mg·kg −1 , V 0.0003 and 0.095 mg·kg −1 , Cr 0.244 and 0.590 mg·kg −1 , Mn 0.216 and 1.196 mg·kg −1 , Ni 0.004 and 0.088 mg·kg −1 , and U < LOQ and 0.047 mg·kg −1 . e concentration of As was the highest among other toxic elements in canned fish; therefore, the THQ value of this element revealed the highest level amounting up to 0.77576 (THQ max ).

“…The results of these pairwise associations (Table 4) show a strong correlation between Se and As levels ( r = 0.98), between Ni and As ( r = 0.88) and between Se and Ni ( r = 0.89) in all samples. The correlation between the levels of Se and As has been observed in canned food (Al-Rajhi, 2014) and that between Ni and As is known to occur naturally (Brown and Blin-Stoyle, 1959). But, the correlation between Se and Ni is unknown to us.…”

Quality control during spirits production and means of authenticating or verifying sources of spirits in the sub-Saharan region of Africa are limited due to lack of resources and the scientific acumen required to develop methodologies for characterizing spirits. However, the increasing needs to protect consumers from negligence, or willful contamination of spirits in this region underscores the urgency with which growth in this area must happen. In this paper, we describe a multivariate statistical framework upon which characterization, identification and authentication of spirits could be developed. The framework exploits the unique chemical fingerprints of spirits with the goal of accomplishing three functions simultaneously: the detection of class differences, the authentication of spirits and the verification of sources. In a test case using the metal contents of 17 Ugandan spirits, this framework shows (i) that a class of unrecorded spirits known locally as Lira-Lira can be singled out from other spirits by their Cu contents, (ii) that localities from where the Lira-Lira spirits were purchased can be resolved to within 8 km by cluster analysis and principal component analysis, (iii) that cluster analysis loadings and scores, placed side-by-side, can pair spirits and their unique discriminating contaminants directly, (iv) that the most important metals for authenticating 13 spirits, source verification and production methods are Al, Sr, Ba, Mn, Zn and Cu (high concentration variability across samples is the qualifying factor), (v) that common sources of contamination can be detected by Pearson correlation analysis (this study finds that Sn/Cd, Pb/Cr, Tl/Cr, Pb/Ni or Cu/Ag as well as the triad Se/As/Ni in the 13 Ugandan spirits are from similar sources), and (vi) that inconsistency in spirits production can be detected with empirical data. Such rudimentary solutions to characterizing spirits have never been offered to the sub-Saharan countries.
