HEAVY METALS CONTAMINATION IN FISH OF THE LIGURIAN SEA

Italian Journal of Food Safety (2009)

I. Giorgi Maria Cesarina Abete Stefania Squadrone R. Tarasco P. Arsieni

Aim of this investigation was to evaluate heavy metals contamination (mercury, cadmium and lead) in fish and shellfish from Ligurian Sea. 58 muscle samples (45 fish and 13 shellfish) were collected and analyzed. 20 samples exceeded the maximum residue limits (MRLs) set by regulation for mercury (16 fish and 4 shellfish samples), while only one fish sample was not consistent with the MRL for lead. Therefore, 35,8% of Ligurian fishing turned out to be not adequate and potentially harmful for consumers. In order to estimate the real risk for human health it is necessary to enforce this study, correlating the results with fish species and with the effective fish consumption.

The source of dioxin contamination of free-range eggs investigated through a geostatistical approach.

ISEE Conference Abstracts (2016)

Rosanna Desiato Marco Montafia P. De Grandi Ubaldo Natangelo Elisa Baioni

Introduction. Dioxins and furans (PCDD/Fs) and dioxin-like polychlorinated byphenils (DL-PCBs) concentrations exceeding the European maximum levels were detected in free-range eggs collected around a secondary aluminium smelters based in a north-wertern of Italy. The aim of this work was to investigate origin and geographical distribution of that contamination through spatial analysis techniques. Methods. Data from a risk-based surveillance carried out between 2008 and 2013 were used to design a spatial explorative study. Maximum values of PCDD/Fs and DL-PCBs detected over time in free-range eggs from 15 farms within a buffer of 5 kilometres from the aluminium smelter plant were used to fit linear regression models with the distance. Kriging, i.e. a spatial interpolation technique, was used to smooth the pollutant concentration data and to visualize and characterize the area of contamination. The Spatial Analyst extension of ArcGis 9.2 (ESRI, Redlands, CA, USA) was used to generate thematic maps. Results. The choropleth maps obtained through the kriging interpolation applied respectively to either PCDD/Fs or DL-PCBs showed that the highest level of pollution was geographically juxtaposed to the location of the aluminium smelter plant. Moreover, a progressively decrease in the contamination was evident at increasing distance from the putative source: that was consistent with a statistically significant spatial trend obtained through the linear regression model Conclusions. Free-range eggs were extremely useful to back-trace the pollutant source even in absence of top soil contamination data. The combination of classical regression models with spatial explorative techniques was a useful approach to investigate the contamination source and to support the hypothesis of a common source contamination.

EXPORT OF CHEESE IN RUSSIA: THE ROLE OF IZSPLV

Italian Journal of Food Safety (2012)

M. Pellegrino Paola Brizio Silvia Gallina R. Tarasco S. Gavinelli

Contaminants like heavy metals could remain in milk and its by-products if forage used for ruminant nutrition is contaminated with high levels of these elements. In EU maximum levels (LMR)are established only for lead in milk. In Russia limits have been fixed for different heavy metals in milk and dairy products; for this reason exporting countries, including Italy, have to demonstrate the conformity of their products to the expected limits. IZSPLV analysed 18 cheese samples to research lead, cadmium, arsenic and mercury. All samples were negative and could be exported toRussia.
