“…Assessments of the impact of heavy metals on human health by consuming wild edible mushrooms were performed using the USEPA model which is used worldwide (Nowakowski et al 2021). The potential non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic effects posed by the consumption of wild edible mushrooms contaminated with heavy metals were assessed by calculation of estimated daily intake (EDI) according to the equation (Fu et al 2020): where: c M -heavy metals concentrations in mushroom samples (mg/kg); IR -food ingestion rate, 6.60E-03 (kg/person/ day); EF -exposure frequency, 365 (days/year); ED -exposure duration, 70 (years); ET -averaged exposure time, 25 550 (days/year) (Fu et al 2020); BW -body weight, 70 (kg) (Nikkarinen and Mertanen 2004).…”

“…Non-carcinogenic health risk assessment of heavy metals in wild edible mushroom consumption was performed using the target hazard quotient value (THQ). THQ was calculated based on the equation from Fu et al (2020): where: R f D -oral reference dose of the heavy metals (mg/ kg/day) (USEPA 2012).…”

“…Wild edible mushrooms are common food in many countries because they are rich in nutrients. They have balanced nutrient composition, because they are rich in minerals, polysaccharides, amino acids, proteins and fiber that gives them the status of low-calorie nutrients (Fu et al 2020, Salihović et al 2021. Mushrooms contain a high proportion of macro-and microelements in addition to the nutrients stated above.…”

The content of macro- and microelements in dry samples of mushrooms of the species Macrolepiota procera, Boletus edulis and Cantharellus cibarius, collected at different areas in Bosnia and Herzegovina, was determined using the ICP-OES method (inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry). Of the macroelements, K is the most represented, followed by S, P, Mg, and the least represented Ca and Na. Zn is the most represented of the essential microelements, followed by Fe, Se, Cu, Mn and Co. Al is the most abundant of the other trace elements followed by Ni and Cr. Of the toxic metals, the most represented is Cd, followed by Pb and As. There are differences in the concentration of micro- and macroelements in the mushrooms analysed, depending on the area from which they were collected because natural geology and geochemistry influence the content of macro- and microelements in wild edible mushrooms. The results show that the analysed mushrooms can be considered a good source of essential elements. The study also assessed potential health risks of heavy metals and the target hazard quotient (THQ) for As, Cd, Pb, Cu, Zn, Ni and Cr in the analysed mushrooms was lower than the safe level. The carcinogenic risk index revealed that Cd and Ni are the most prevalent pollutants in the mushrooms studied.
