Assessment of Arsenic levels in rice brands sold in Kampala. An experimental study to demonstrate the modifying effect of boiling, soaking and washing

2023-01-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Arsenic is one of the major toxic metals in the environment that is also known to be carcinogenic with several other health side effects in human beings. It can cause both acute and chronic toxicity depending on the doses available or duration of exposure in the human body. The major sources of arsenic exposure to humans include; via contaminated water, food and inhalation of arsenic dust fro...
