曹菊琴, 朱美霖. Non-carcinogenic Risk of Heavy Metal Exposure based on Traditional Chinese Medicine Prunella Vulgaris L. Ingestion[J]. 2016, (3): 53-55. DOI: 10.16056/j.1005-7676.2016.03.012.
the contamination status of five heavy metals(cadmium
copper
lead
Arsenic
mercury) in prunella vulgaris L. was obtained through literature investigation and statistical analysis. The results showed that Pb was most heavily contaminated
with an over standard rate of 34.48%. The risk exposure and non-carcinogenic risk were also assessed by using health risk assessment theory system. The results showed that when taking prunella vulgaris L. as guidance in Chinese pharmacopoeia
neither each heavy metal nor the five heavy metals together would lead to non-carcinogenic risk.
