Abstract

A total of 120 spices and herbs bought on the Belgian market have been analysed for occurrence of the four EU regulated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (ΣPAH4). Samples were sorted in three groups according to their use: traditional spices, exotic spices, and herbs. Benzo[a]pyrene has been detected in 56% of samples, while ΣPAH4 were found in 96% of samples. ΣPAH4 were evenly distributed among the three groups with a median content of 7.2 for traditional spices, 5.5 for exotic spices and 6.0 µg kg^-1 for herbs. According to the EU legislation, three samples were exceeding maximal limits, with a maximum ΣPAH4 content of 164 µg kg^-1. The ΣPAH4 dietary intake has been estimated at 1.4 and 27.8 ng day^-1 for average and high consumption, respectively. The risk for the consumer was evaluated by using the margin of exposure (MOE). In all cases, MOE were >20 000, indicating a low concern for the population.

香料和干香草中的多环芳烃及其对比利时人口的相关风险。

在比利时市场上购买的总共120种香料和草药已被分析是否存在四种欧盟管制的多环芳烃(ΣPAH4)。样品根据其用途分为三组:传统香料、外来香料和草药。在56%的样本中检测到苯并[a]芘，而在96%的样本中发现ΣPAH4。ΣPAH4在三组中分布均匀，传统香料中位数含量为7.2，外来香料中位数含量为5.5，中草药中位数含量为6.0µg kg-1。根据欧盟法规，三个样品超过了最大限量，ΣPAH4的最大含量为164µg kg-1。平均和高摄入量的ΣPAH4膳食摄入量分别为1.4和27.8 ng day-1。使用暴露边际(MOE)对消费者的风险进行评估。所有病例的MOE均>2万，表明对人群的关注度较低。

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.
