“…The large contribution of canned foods as a dietary tin source is agreement with previous observations by various authors (Benoy et al 1971;Hellendoorn et al 1971;Sherlock and Smart 1984;Rader 1991;Biégo et al 1999;Ysart et al 1999;Blunden and Wallace 2003). There was a substantial overlapping in the distribution ranges of Sn intake between consumers and non-consumers (Figure 1), suggesting that some canned foods contained very little tin (e.g.…”

“…Subsequently, dietary intake of tin (Sn-D) has been investigated for populations in various areas of the world, e.g. van Dokkum et al (1989) on a Dutch population, Llobett et al (1998) and Bocio et al (2005) on Spanish people, Biégo et al (1999) and Noël et al (2003) on subjects in France, and Ysart et al (1999) on UK residents. Nevertheless, information on dietary exposure of the population to this element is essentially nil for people in Asia including Japan, except for one from this study group in mid-1990s (Shimbo et al 1996).…”

The study reported herein was initiated to examine dietary tin intake (Sn-D) in Japan to elucidate the possible effects of consumption of canned food (including beverages) on Sn-D, and to compare the intake among regions and between the two sexes in reference to the current provisional tolerable weekly intake and intake in other countries. Urinary tin levels (Sn-U) were also studied. Duplicate diet samples (24 h) together with records of food intake were collected in 1999-2004 from 111 adult residents in four areas of Japan. After exclusion of incomplete samples, 95 valid samples were subjected to determination of tin by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) after acid digestion. Among the 95 cases, 37 women additionally provided urine samples. Distribution of Sn-D was markedly skewed. Median Sn-D was 5.6 microg day(-1) for total subjects, which was about one-tenth of the values previously reported for the Japanese population; the difference was most probably attributable to the difference in the methods of determination. Consumption of canned foods led to a substantial increase in Sn-D. Thus, the median Sn-D for canned food consumers of 35.7 microg day(-1), was eight-fold higher than the median Sn-D for non-consumers of 4.5 microg day(-1). Sn-U (as corrected for creatinine concentration) distributed log-normally with a geometric mean of 2.0 microg (g cr)(-1). No effect of canned food consumption was evident on Sn-U. When compared internationally, Sn-D for the Japanese population was substantially lower than Sn-D for populations in other industrialized countries.

“…The injection volume of TBT/oil was same as that of corn oil in the control oil group. The tested doses in this study were based on experiments with S. alpinus, developed at Institut des Sciences de la Mer de Rimouski (Que´bec-CA), in concentrations previously reported for aquatic organisms from a contaminated area (Bie´go et al, 1999).…”

“…As with aqueous Sn concentrations, inorganic Sn data for fish collected in the wild are limited. However, because fish are commonly packaged for human consumption in tin cans, there is a fairly extensive literature on Sn concentrations in canned fish (Biego et al, 1999;Millour et al, 2012;Blunden and Wallace, 2003), where reported concentrations range between 4 and 8 lg/g (d.w.). These concentrations are similar to those seen in the limited studies of fish caught in the wild (Weber, 1985).…”

The effects of a stannous chloride-based water treatment system in a mercury contaminated stream

We assessed the impacts of an innovative Hg water treatment system on a small, industrially-contaminated stream in the southeastern United States. The treatment system, installed in 2007, removes Hg from wastewater using tin (Sn) (II) chloride followed by air stripping. Mercury concentrations in the receiving stream, Tims Branch, decreased from >100 to ∼10 ng/L in the four years following treatment, and Hg body burdens in redfin pickerel (Esox americanus) decreased by 70% at the most contaminated site. Tin concentrations in water and fish increased significantly in the tributary leading to Tims Branch, but concentrations remain below levels of concern for human health or ecological risks. While other studies have shown that Sn may be environmentally methylated and methyltin can transfer its methyl group to Hg, results from our field studies and sediment incubation experiments suggest that the added Sn to the Tims Branch watershed is not contributing to methylmercury (MeHg) production or bioaccumulation in this system. The stannous chloride treatment system installed at Tims Branch was effective at removing Hg inputs and reducing Hg bioaccumulation in the stream, but future studies are needed to assess longer term impacts of Sn on the environment.
