摘要
The bioaccessibility and human health risks of As and heavy metals (Cu, Pb, Zn, Ni, Co, Cr, Cd and Mn) in total suspended particulates (TSP) and fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in Nanjing, China were investigated. The average mass concentration ratios of PM2.5 to TSP were 0.61 for Gulou sampling site and 0.50 for Pukou sampling site, respectively. Zn, Pb, Mn and Cu were the most abundant elements among the studied metal(loid)s in both TSP and PM2.5. The results of a simple bioaccessibility extraction test of the studied metal(loid)s varied among elements, with Cd, Zn, Mn, Pb and As showing the higher bioaccessibility. The carcinogenic risks of As, Cd, Co, Cr and Ni in both TSP and PM2.5 via dermal contact and inhalation exposure were within the acceptable level (<1 × 10−4) for both children and adults, but there was potential carcinogenic risk posed by Pb via ingestion to children and adults. The hazard index values for all of the studied elements suggested no non-carcinogenic health risks via ingestion and dermal contact, but a potential non-carcinogenic health risk via inhalation to adults. Values of hazard quotient and hazard index indicated the non-carcinogenic risks from the studied metal(loid)s to children via ingestion, dermal contact and inhalation pathways in Nanjing given the present air quality.
