Background: Due to the world research for non-carcinogenic risk assessment of heavy metals in the processed meat products, the aim of the present study was to determine the contents of heavy metals (Cu, Pb, and Zn) and associated health risks through consumption of sausage and ham marketed in Hamadan city in 2016. Methods: In this descriptive study, 30 samples from 10 brands of sausage and 30 samples from 10 brands of ham (totally 60 samples) were collected from the market basket of Hamadan city. After preparation and processing of the samples in the laboratory, the concentration of metals was determined using inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry. The health risk index (HRI) was assessed based on the ratio of average daily intake of metal (DIM) to the reference dose of the metal. All statistical analyses were performed using SPSS (version 20).

“…It has been proven that skin irritation, running nose, irritation to the lining of the nose, nose ulcers, liver damage, kidney failure, breathing problems, and circulatory and nerve disorders are the main effects arising from breathing and or long-term exposure to Cr (VI) [12]. Major sources of Cr-contamination in the soil include the disposal of Cr containing wastes and electroplating processes [36].…”

Background: It has long been recognized that the intake of foods contaminated with chemicals, especially heavy metals can give rise to acute intoxications. The toxic properties of heavy metals are due to their long biological half-lives, as well as non-biodegradable and persistent composition. Considering the importance of the cereal products in the human diet, the present investigation was carried out to assess the human health risk of residue levels of Al, Cr, Pb, and Zn in the domestic and imported spaghetti. Methods: In this descriptive study, 18 samples of Iranian and imported spaghetti were collected from the market in Kermanshah City, Iran, in 2015. After the preparation and processing of the samples in the laboratory, the concentration of metals was determined using the inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy. Then, statistical analyses were performed in SPSS (version 19) by running the Shapiro-Wilk test, one-way ANOVA (Duncan multiple range test), Independent t-test , and Pearson correlation coefficient. Results: The results showed that the mean concentrations of Al, Cr, Pb, and Zn in Iranian spaghetti samples were 655.56±400.35, 211.11±92.80, 2666.67±948.68, and 588.89±116.67 µg/ kg, respectively and in the imported spaghetti samples, these values were 2022.22±1940.86, 677.78±393.0, 3300.0±728.0, and 866.67±685.57 µg/kg, respectively. Moreover, Health Risk Index (HRI) values in adults and children via consumption of Iranian and imported spaghetti were within the safe limits (HRI <1). Conclusion: Considering the serious contamination of some samples of Iranian and imported spaghetti by Al and Pb, the control of heavy metals content during the whole production processing of spaghetti is suggested.

“…The oral reference doses (mg/kg/day) of metals were 1.50 for Cr, 0.04 for Cu, 0.643 for Fe, 0.014 for Mn and 0.02 for Ni (Harmanescu, Alda, Bordean, Gogoasa, & Gergen, 2011;Xue, Liu, Liu, & Yan, 2012;Omar et al, 2013;Liang, Xue, Wang, Sun, Yang, & Liu, 2015;Zeng, Wang, Wang, Guo, Chen, & Zhuang, 2015;Sobhanardakani, 2016). In this regard, the HRI <1 means the exposed population is assumed to be safe.…”

Samples of some popular brands of canned Thunnus albacares; Clupeonella cultriventris caspia; Euthynnus affinis; and Thunnus tonggol in the Iranian market were analyzed for determination of Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn and Ni after digestion with 10 ml of 1 N nitric acid by inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometer. The results showed that the concentrations of metals (µg/g wet weight) with an average of 2.66 for Cr, 0.92 for Cu, 54.68 for Fe, 0.33 for Mn and 0.22 for Ni were lower than the Maximum Permissible Limits (MPL) established by WHO. Also, The Health Risk Index (HRI) values were within the safe limits (<1), and there is no potential health risk for adults and children via consumption of canned fish. Despite the fact that our canned fish samples does not significantly contribute to total body burden of analyzed metals, But due to the increased discharge of pollutants into the environment, especially the marine ecosystem, and consider that various species of fish retain substantial amounts of heavy metals during their lifespan, the monitoring of heavy metals concentrations in food is important. Therefore, the study of heavy metal distribution on a temporal basis is recommended.
