2 Content 1) Groundwater drinking pathway 2) Daily food consumption (foodstuffs) 3) Groundwater and rice
3 Introduction Land area: 181,035 km 2 Total population (2015): 15,578,000 GDP per Capita: 1,218$ (2015) Boundary: Thailand and Lao PDR on the West and the North Viet Nam on the East and the Southeast. The Gulf of Thailand on the Southeast 80% of Cambodian populations live in rural areas (NISC, 2012) 28.5% of populations are living under the national poverty line in 2010 (WFP, 2012)
4 Introduction 1) Abundance and Hazard of arsenic Oxidation state: -3, 0, +3 and +5 (WHO, 2004) Well-known mineral: Realga (As 4 S 4 ), orpiment (As 2 S 3 ), arsenolite (As 2 O 3 ), loelingite (FeAs 2 ) and arsenopyrite (FeAsS) Abundant in shale, coal and ore deposits Contamination: Natural processes and anthropogenic activities Acute toxicity: Gastrointestinal discomfort, abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, bloody urine, shock, Coma and death ( mg, 1-3 mgaskg -1 ) Chronic exposure: Dermatological manifestation (pigmentation, melanosis and hyperkeratosis), skin cancer, lung cancer and cancer of urinary bladder.
5 40% of the total populations CANNOT access to improved drinking water sources (UNICEF, 2012) Groundwater is the main source for drinking although many people live alongside surface waters Groundwater arsenic-affected area (RDI, 2012)
6 (Polizzotto et al., 2008) (Polizzotto et al., 2007) Source of arsenic release to ground water in Asia
7 This study aims to provide a comprehensive investigation and the magnitude of arsenic exposure pathways in the Mekong River basin of Cambodia. 1) Assess health risk of arsenic from groundwater drinking pathway 2) Assess health risk of arsenic intake from local food consumption

14 1) Residents in the Kandal province study area might be exposed to more toxic and carcinogenic risks than those of the Kratie and Kampong Cham province study areas. 2) Positive significant correlations between arsenic content in hair (As h ), arsenic levels in groundwater (As w ), and individual average daily doses (ADD) of arsenic was found

24 Conclusions 1) Residents in the highly contaminated study area of Kandal are exposed to more toxic and carcinogenic risks than those in the Kratie and Kampong Cham provinces. 2) The results indicate that arsenic accumulation in Cambodian residents bodies is mainly through groundwater drinking pathway 3) The daily dose of inorganic arsenic of the residents in Kandal province is higher than the lower limits on the benchmark dose for a 0.5% increased incidence of lung cancer (BMDL 0.5 equals to 3.0 µg kg -1 d -1 ) 4) Arsenic in rice is an additional source which is attributed to high arsenic accumulation in the residents bodies in the Mekong River basin of Cambodia
