1 WHO / FAO mg / kg BW PTWI < 3 3 ~ mg / kg BW PTWI P mg / kg BWPTWI < 3 3 ~ P mg / kg BW PTWI PTWI R995 R A Assessment on the probability of aluminum exposure from flour products in Shanghai residents Liu Hong Qin Luxin Luo Baozhang Fang Yamin Wu Chunfeng Yuan Weijia Shanghai Municipal Center for Disease Control & Prevention Shanghai China Abstract Objective To obtain the basic data of aluminum exposure from flour products in Shanghai residents and to estimate its health risks. Methods For the assessment of aluminum exposure from flour products in Shanghai residents the probabilistic estimate method recommended by WHO / FAO on Principles and methods for the risk assessment of chemicals in food was applied. Monitoring the concentration of aluminum in flour products combined with a survey on flour products intake of Shanghai residents was conducted. Results The average aluminum exposure from flour products per week for Shanghai residents was estimated to be mg / kg BW reached times of provisional tolerable weekly intake PTWI. The average aluminum exposure from flour products per week for < 3 year-old infants 3 ~ 17 year-old children and adolescents 18 year-old adults and pregnant women were estimated to be and mg / kg BW respectively reached and times of PTWI. The upper 90th percentile aluminum exposure from flour products per week for Shanghai residents was estimated to be mg / kg BW reached times of PTWI. The upper 90th percentile aluminum exposure from flour products per week for < 3 year-old infants 3 ~ 17 year-old children and adolescents 18 year-old adults and pregnant women were estimated to be and mg / kg BW reached and times of PTWI respectively. Conclusion The level of aluminum exposure from flour products in Shanghai residents was greatly higher than PTWI. It was a very high health risk to Shanghai residents particularly infants and children.

Methods Using selective study of food categories combining the data of food consumption survey in Shanghai residents in 2009 with the data of monitoring food pollutant in eight categories of food in Minhang District to obtain the exposure of cadmium from diet in different population and to evaluate the safety of diet. Results 1 Cadmium was detected in 119 of 130 samples % from eight categories of foods. The exceeding standard rate was % mainly in edible fungi pig kidney and sea shellfish. 2 The average cadmium exposure was mg per month accounted for % of provisional tolerable monthly intake PTMI. The cadmium exposure level at the 90th percentile was mg per month per person accounted for % of PTMI. 3 The contribution zhaolifang0618@ 126. com
