Review and Human Health Risk Assessment of Heavy Metals Accumulation in Vegetables Grown in Vinh Quynh, Vietnam
Original language description
Human health risk assessment is a process to estimate the nature and probability of adverse health effects in humans exposed to chemicals present in contaminated environmental media, now or in the future. In this study we reviewed and utilized already reported data by previous investigations to apply Health Risk Assessment methodology for assessing the potential health risk from heavy metals' exposure and accumulation in vegetables grown in Vinh Quynh district of Vietnam. As per estimations of non-carcinogenic effects, all the values of HIs for adults and children were higher than 1, especially for children. For carcinogenic effects, the UCL Risk values showed that there was one extra cancer death in 10,000 people exposed with Arsenic in study area. Calculations showed that people in study area are under the potential health risk from heavy metals, which are accumulated in vegetables.
