27 Overall conclusions marine biotoxins Based on the available data it appears that the current EU regulatory limit values for OA-, AZA-, STX- and DA-group toxins are not sufficiently protective for consumers. For YTX and PTX the current EU limit appears to be sufficiently protective for consumers. The MBA for liphophilic marine biotoxins (OA, AZA, PTX, YTX) has shortcomings (high variablity of results, detection capacity) and is not considered an appropriate tool for control purposes. MBA is able to quantify STX-group toxins at current EU limit, but not below. 27
28 CONTAM opinion cadmium Cadmium 30 January 2009 Cd 28
29 Terms of reference EFSA has been requested by the European Commission to: Assess whether PTWI of 7 g/kg b.w. is still appropriate Updated exposure assessment on cadmium Exposure from food including drinking water Importance of other non-dietary sources (e.g. air, cigarette smoke etc.) Exposure in specific group of population (e.g. infants and children, people following specific diets) and indication of age group most exposed to cadmium Take into account biomonitoring data 29
30 Occurrence data (period ) Total of 137,202 data from 18 EU Member States Germany (32% of analysed data) Slovakia (29% of analysed data) France (13% of analysed data) Romania (9% of analysed data) Iceland Australia Three commercial organisations 30
31 Consumption data The EFSA Concise European Food Consumption database was established by EFSA to support exposure assessments in the EU - EFSA website (see Annex 3 to EFSA, 2008) French data for vegetarians - Appendix 1 of the 1 st French Total Diet Study (Leblanc et al., 2004) Food survey from the Italian Istituto Nazionale di Ricerca per gli Alimenti e la Nutrizione (INRAN) (Turrini et al., 2001; Turrini and Lombardi-Boccia, 2002) for children exposure 31
32 Exposure to cadmium from different sources Source Pathway Range of calculated or reported exposures [µg/kg b.w. per week] Adults Children Dietary exposure Food average current opinion Oral Food high current opinion Food in industrial areas Oral Extreme diets current opinion Oral Vegetarians Oral 5.47 House dust Oral Non-Dietary Exposure Air Inhalation Smoking inhalation
33 Toxicity Cadmium is primarily toxic to the kidney, especially to the proximal tubular cells. Prolonged and/or high exposure may lead to tubular damage renal impairment with decreased glomulare filtration rate renal failure Cadmium can also cause bone demineralisation either through direct bone damage or indirectly as a result of renal failure. Cd
34 Human data A large number of studies on health effects of cadmium exposure in humans in different countries investigated the relationship between urinary cadmium levels and tubular effects. Tubular damage is the earliest effect of cadmium exposure, thus the CONTAM Panel based its risk assessment on this effect. The CONTAM Panel selected beta-2- microglobulin (B2M) in relation to tubular effects as the most useful biomarker. 34
35 Meta-analysis The CONTAM Panel carried out a meta-analysis to evaluate the dose-response-relationship between the urinary cadmium and B2M. The CONTAM Panel derived a benchmark dose and its 95%- confidence lower bound (BMDL) for humans using cut off points relevant to clinical changes in the target organ (300 µg/g creatinine). The CONTAM Panel selected an overall group-based BMDL5 of 4 µg cadmium / g creatinine The CONTAM Panel applied a chemical-specific adjustment factor (CSAF) of 3.9 due uncertainties using group means and not individual data points. Dividing the BMDL5 of 4 µg cadmium/g creatinine by 3.9 (CSAF) results to urinary cadmium excretion of 1 µg/g creatinine 35
36 Meta-analysis The CONTAM Panel concluded that urinary cadmium concentrations of 1 µg per g creatinine and below would indicate that 95% of the European population would not exceed cut-off limits in the range of about 300 µg/g creatinine for B2M in urine. A one-compartment model was fitted to the data from population based Swedish mammography cohort study in order to derive a dietary cadmium intake from a urinary cadmium concentration. In order to remain below 1 µg cadmium/g creatinine the average daily dietary cadmium intake should not exceed 2.52 µg cadmium/kg b.w. per week Thus, the CONTAM Panel established a TWI of 2.5 µg/kg b.w. for cadmium. 36
37 Risk characterisation Mean dietary exposure to cadmium across Europe was estimated to be 2.3 µg/kg b.w. per week (range: 1.9 to 3.0 range) High exposure was estimated to be 3.0 µg/kg. b.w. per week (range: 2.5 to 3.9) Vegetarians have dietary exposure estimates of 5.4 µg/kg. b.w. per week. The CONTAM Panel noted that the mean dietary exposures in European countries are close or exceeding the TWI of 2.5 µg/kg. b.w. Subgroups e.g. vegetarian, children, smokers and people living in highly contaminated areas may exceed the TWI by about 2-fold. 37
38 Overall conclusions Although adverse health effects on kidney function are unlikely to occur for an individual exposed at this high level, the CONTAM Panel concluded that exposure to cadmium at the population level should be reduced. 38
39 Follow up of risk assessments
