摘要
The concerns over potential health risk from the consumption of Marcia opima (M. optima) and lingulata (Lingula anatina) contaminated by heavy metals (Cd, Pb and Zn) and microplastics in the eastern part of Phuket, Southern Thailand has been assessed. The abundance of microplastics in Marcia opima and Lingulata were 1.86 and 1.24 items/individual, respectively and followed the order: polyethylene terephthalate > polyester > polyvinyl alcohol and polyvinyl chloride. Integrated risk indices using the daily intake (EDIs) for heavy metals consumption (from 0.00001 to 0.00712 mg kg−1 per day) are not exceeded the standards set by the ministry of public health Thailand to pose potential carcinogenic health risk individually. The bioaccumulations and hazard quotient values (<1) showed no risk exists concerning the levels of exposure, however, monitoring heavy metals concentration and microplastic contaminations on a regular basis are necessary to prioritize the local people health from pollutants exposure. © 2022
