对西班牙马德里Alcala de Henares采集的土壤样品中铝(Al)、砷(As)、铍(Be)、镉(U)、铬(Cr)、汞(Hg)、锰(Mn)、镍(Ni)、铅(Pb)、锡(SRI)、铊(TI)、钒(V)和锌(Zn)的含量进行了测定。还评估了因吸入金属和摄入土壤而产生的人类健康风险。对于非致癌风险，目前的金属水平通常低于被认为对普通人群安全的水平。对于潜在致癌元素As、Be、Cd和Cr，Be、Cd和Cr的浓度均低于参考值，而As的平均浓度(3.4ug/g)高于危险癌症的安全限值。总的来说，通过土壤摄入/吸入被分析元素对人类健康的潜在影响似乎相当小。(C)2002爱思唯尔科学有限公司。保留所有权利。
The concentrations of aluminium (Al), arsenic (As), beryllium (Be), cadmium (U), chromium (Cr), mercury (Hg), manganese (Mn), nickel (Ni), lead (Pb), tin (Sri), thallium (TI), vanadium (V), and zinc (Zn) were determined in soil samples collected in Alcala de Henares (Madrid, Spain). Human health risks derived from metal inhalation and ingestion of soils were also assessed. For noncarcinogenic risks, the current levels of metals were usually lower than those considered as safe for the general population. With respect to the potentially carcinogenic elements As, Be, Cd, and Cr, the concentrations of Be, Cd, and Cr were lower than the reference values, while the average As concentration (3.4 mug/g) was higher than the safety limit for risk cancer. In general terms, the potential human health impact of ingestion/inhalation through soils of the analyzed elements seems to be rather small. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
