Abstract

This study evaluated commercially available therapeutic teas for their organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) residue levels to estimate the potential health risks associated with their prolonged consumption. Tea samples that were produced for therapeutic uses were obtained commercially. Organochlorine pesticide residues were extracted from the samples using the modified QuEChERS (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged, and Safe) method and analysed using Gas Chromatography with Electron Capture Detector (GC-ECD). Results showed that the tea samples contained a large number of OCPs residue at levels that were significantly higher than the maximum residue limits (MRLs) set by the European Union (p > 0.05). Aldrin was detected in all samples, methoxychlor, and p,p'-DDT were detected in ≥88% of the samples while γ-HCH, δ-HCH, endosulfan II, and endosulfan sulphate were detected in ≥69% of the samples. Health risk assessment indicated that the highest risk of cancer was associated with aldrin.

治疗茶中有机氯农药与人体健康风险评价。

本研究评估了市售治疗性茶的有机氯农药残留量，以估计长期食用这些茶所带来的潜在健康风险。为治疗用途而生产的茶叶样品在商业上获得。采用改进的QuEChERS (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged and Safe)方法提取样品中的有机氯农药残留，并采用气相色谱-电子捕获检测器(GC-ECD)进行分析。结果表明，样品中OCPs的残留量显著高于欧盟规定的最大残留限量(MRLs) (p > 0.05)。在所有样品中检测到Aldrin，在≥88%的样品中检测到甲氧基氯和p,p'-DDT，在≥69%的样品中检测到γ-HCH， δ-HCH，硫丹II和硫酸硫丹。健康风险评估表明，患癌症的最高风险与aldrin有关。

期刊介绍： Food Additives & Contaminants: Part B publishes surveillance data indicating the presence and levels of occurrence of designated food additives, residues and contaminants in foods, food supplements and animal feed. Data using validated methods must meet stipulated quality standards to be acceptable and must be presented in a prescribed format for subsequent data-handling. Food Additives & Contaminants: Part B restricts its scope to include certain classes of food additives, residues and contaminants. This is based on a goal of covering those areas where there is a need to record surveillance data for the purposes of exposure and risk assessment. The scope is initially restricted to: Additives - food colours, artificial sweeteners, and preservatives; Residues – veterinary drug and pesticide residues; Contaminants – metals, mycotoxins, phycotoxins, plant toxins, nitrate/nitrite, PCDDs/PCFDs, PCBs, PAHs, acrylamide, 3-MPCD and contaminants derived from food packaging. Readership: The readership includes scientists involved in all aspects of food safety and quality and particularly those involved in monitoring human exposure to chemicals from the diet. Papers reporting surveillance data in areas other than the above should be submitted to Part A . The scope of Part B will be expanded from time-to-time to ensure inclusion of new areas of concern.
