Abstract

Rice ingestion is one of major pathway for heavy metal bioaccumulation in human. This study has employed an in vitro digestion model to determine non-carcinogenic health risk assessment (HRA) from bioavailability of heavy metal concentrations in cooked rice. Totally, 22 varieties of marketed rice samples were purchased to assess bioavailability of heavy metal (Cd, Cu, Cr, Fe and Zn) using in vitro digestion model. Bioavailability of heavy metal concentrations in were analyzed using Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES). Outputs showed bioavailability of heavy metal concentrations were decreased from Zn > Fe > Cu > Cr > Cd. Zinc was found as the most abundant bioavailability of heavy metal concentration in the cooked rice samples and Thai fragrant rice has the highest Zn content. Hazard Quotient (HQ) values for bioavailability of heavy metal studied were less than 1 for adult and children indicating that there were no any non-carcinogenic health risks present. The application of in vitro digestion model in determining bioavailability of heavy metal produces a more realistic estimation of human health risks exposure.
