Respiratory exposure to heavy metals is an important health risk factor; however, the impact of co-exposure to multiple metals on internal exposure and health remains unclear. Here, we evaluated the relationship between exposure to nine metals (K, Ca, Fe, Cr, Mn, Zn, Pb, Se, and Hg) in PM2.5, PM0.25, and urinary metals with health biomarkers, i.e., 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), interleukin-8 (IL-8), and C-reactive protein (CRP), in rural housewives in Yuncheng City, northern China. K, Ca, Cr, Mn, Zn, and Hg were primarily present in PM0.25. Fe, Pb, and Se showed the higher concentrations in PM2.5, indicating that these elements mainly existed in the coarser fraction of PM2.5. The correlation of metals in the two particle sizes was decent, but only K and Se in PM2.5 and PM0.25 were significantly correlated with their respective concentrations in urine. Most metals in the urine were negatively correlated with biomarkers representing inflammation and oxidative stress. Based on the Bayesian kernel machine regression mixed effect model, we found that the co-exposure of nine metals in PM0.25 was significantly negatively correlated with VEGF, with Hg and Cr having the highest posterior inclusion probability, which may be due to the synergistic effect of these two metals. We recommend minimizing the use of solid fuels at home and regularly replacing utensils, which can have a certain effect on reducing exposure to heavy metals. This study offers a theoretical foundation and practical exposure case for quantitatively assessing the effects of particulate matter-bound metals on human health during the combustion of solid fuels in rural households.

“…However, concerns have been raised about the potential for metal migration from these utensils into the food and beverages they come into contact with, which could result in health risks for consumers. This research aims to investigate the impact of electroplating on the migration of metals from utensils and assess the potential health risks associated with such migration [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31] .…”

Electroplating is a widely used technique in the manufacturing of utensils for household and commercial use. This process involves the deposition of a metal coating onto a base material, such as steel or brass, to improve the aesthetics, durability, and corrosion resistance of the utensil. Several studies have investigated the migration of heavy metals from utensils, but there is a lack of research specifically focused on the impact of electroplating on this phenomenon. Therefore, this research article aims to assess the impact of electroplating by analyzing the migration of heavy metals from such utensils. The objective of this research is to assess the impact of electroplating on the migration of heavy metals from utensils. The research also aims to evaluate the impact of coating thickness. Stainless‐steel and brass utensils (Plate, Tumbler, and Bowl) are purchased. The samples are analyzed as per standard test methods based on inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP‐MS) techniques. Leaching stimulant is used for extraction process. Testing is performed in an ISO/IEC 17025: 2017 accredited laboratory. The experiments reveal that the electroplating process decreased the migration of lead from the utensils. These findings highlight the need for stricter regulations and standards to ensure the safety of electroplated utensils.

The intake of toxic metals from cooking utensils through food is of growing concern to the medical community. This intake poses serious risk to human health. In many developing countries, different types of contaminated metals scraps are used to make cooking utensils. The leaching of both nutritionally essential and toxic metals in significant quantities from cookware during the cooking process results in food contamination and poses a substantial health risk. In the present study, the leaching of some toxic and potentially toxic metals from cooking utensils into different solutions and food was investigated. A preliminary survey indicated that the majority of individuals tend to use aluminum cookware due to its affordability, overlooking the potential health risks associated with these inexpensive and lower-quality cooking utensils. XRF analysis revealed that aluminum, steel, and copper cookware had K, Ca, Pb, Cd, Ni, V, Sn Mo, Zn, Bi, and Tb as contaminants. In addition, aluminum (3.2 ± 0.25 to 4.64 ± 0.20 g/kg) and copper cookware (2.90 ± 0.12 g/kg) were highly contaminated with lead. The time and pH-dependent study revealed that leaching of metals (Al, Pb, Ni, Cr, Cd, Cu, and Fe, etc.) into food was predominantly from anodized and non-anodized aluminum cookware. More metal leaching was observed from new aluminum cookware compared to old. Acidic food was found to cause more metals to leach during cooking. Blood metal analysis of the local population revealed the presence of high concentrations of Al, Pb, Cd, and Ni. In conclusion, leaching of toxic or potentially toxic metals from cookware into food, especially from anodized and non-anodized aluminum cookware, poses a potential public health risk. Practical applications: Cooking utensils are routinely used for the preparation of food. However, the harmful impact posed by these essential items is largely unknown. The current research briefly explains the toxic metals leaching from cookware in a pH-dependent manner and leaves a message to the public, especially in developing countries like Pakistan, regarding the type of cookware suitable for cooking purposes.
