Background.Bangladesh is a densely populated country with a high demand for non-vegetable protein. Poultry meat is an important source of protein due to its affordability. Trace metals are persistent in the environment and are subject to bioaccumulation in the food chain. Contaminated poultry feed can pose a risk to human health as it biomagnifies and bioconcentrates toxic metals up the food chain, which can enter the human body and cause adverse and toxic health effects.Objectives.The aim of the current study was to assess the concentration and distribution of metals such as arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), cobalt (Co), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu) and nickel (Ni) in different types and parts of poultry in markets in Dhaka, Bangladesh.Methods.A total of 15 chickens were collected from five commercial markets of Dhaka city. Three types of poultry were selected, broiler, layer and cock. Altogether, 45 chicken samples were analyzed for toxic metals concentrations using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy.Results.The concentrations of As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu and Ni obtained in the broiler, layer and cock chickens were 0.728, 0.232, 0.392; 0.595, 0.245, 0.271; 0.058, 0.016, 0.096; 5.275, 1.562, 22.180; 3.571, 2.269, 4.241, and 0.332, 0.211, 0.433 mg/kg (wet weight), respectively. The results indicate that the concentrations of As, Cr, and Cu in the analyzed samples exceeded the maximum permissible levels, whereas the concentrations of Cd and Ni were within acceptable limits. Metal concentrations decreased in the order of Cr > Cu > As > Cd > Ni > Co. The target hazard quotient and cancer risk values were estimated for each metal due to consumption of the different types of chicken.Conclusions.The estimated metal concentrations of As, Cr and Cu were higher than the permissible levels of international standards, indicating a health risk. Groundwater in many parts of the country is contaminated with As and is a probable source of As contamination in poultry. High concentrations of Cr and Cu in chicken may be caused by contaminated poultry feed. In the present study, layer chickens were comparatively less contaminated with metals than other types of chicken. The estimated target hazard quotient and cancer risk values of the analyzed chicken samples were lower than acceptable limits for all individual trace metals in the three types of chicken, indicating no non-carcinogenic and cancer health risk from ingestion of a single trace metal through consumption of these chickens.Ethical Approval.This study was approved by the Academic Committee of the Institute of Leather Engineering and Technology, University of Dhaka, Bangladesh.Competing Interests.The authors declare no competing financial interests.

“…Results also showed that Co residues were significantly higher in chest muscles than thigh muscles and liver (Table 1 ). Our results agree with the study conducted by Hozan and Hemin ( 2013 ): the Co range was 0.00–0.04 µg/g in chicken luncheon that was sold in Sulaymaniah markets; Mottalib et al ( 2018 ), the Co mean was 0.061 and 0.07 µg/g in broiler breast and liver, respectively; and Ersoy et al ( 2015 ), the Co level was determined in the thigh, chest, and liver of poultry around the cement factory in a residential area. On the other hand, the Co range was lower than in the study done by Abdel-Salam et al ( 2013 ), where the Co concentration was 0.2 µg/g.…”

This study aimed to evaluate the concentration of metals such as aluminum (Al), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), barium (Ba), bismuth (Bi), cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), chromium (Cr), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), and selenium (Se) in 360 samples of poultry meat and liver from six brands (A, B, C, D, E, and F) in Assiut, Egypt; compare these concentrations with Egyptian and world permissible limits; and determine their safety for human consumption according to health risk assessment. Chest, thigh muscles, and liver were collected randomly from Assiut city markets, and the concentration of heavy metals was measured in the central laboratory of the faculty of agriculture at Assiut University using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). All the analyzed samples were positive for the tested metals and were far below the allowed maximum permissible limits except for Pb and Fe, which exceeded the Egyptian Organization for Standardization (EOS) permissible limits with 33% and 67%, respectively, as well as Pb and Cd, which exceeded FAO/WHO permissible limits with 94% and 17%, respectively. Health risk assessment revealed the safety and minimum health risk for human consumption of metal residues in poultry tissues and liver using estimated daily intake (EDI), target hazard quotient (THQ), hazard index (HI), and target cancer risk (TR). Even though the THQ and HI values were significantly lower than 1.0 during our study, heavy metal monitoring in poultry products and byproducts is required for human security and safety.

“…The results pointed the accumulation of lead in the liver and kidney is probably an indicator of its presence in water and feed. (Ahmed, 2002) High levels of metals in poultry products are mainly due to contamination of feed and water sources (Andrée et al, 2010;Ersoy et al, 2015). The presence of lead residues may be attributed to feeding contamination, climatic factors such as wind, use of agrochemicals and very importantly drinking water.…”

Heavy metals pollution, along with environmental pollution, is increasing every day. It contaminates foodstuff. Moreover, in the last few years, the frequency of renal failure and liver cirrhosis in a human was markedly increased which could be related to heavy metal pollution in Egypt. The present study was designed to investigate the presence of heavy metals (lead, cadmium and iron) as well as macro elements (sodium, calcium and manganese) in drinking water (tap and well water), feed and tissue residues in 5 different broiler's farms (A,B,C,D and E) in Ismailia Governorate. Farm A was in Fayed area, farm B was in El Tall El Kebir area, farm C was in Abu Khalifa area, farm D was in Taie area, and farm E was in Sarabium area. Both farms A and B used tap water while farms C, D and E used well water. Levels of lead (Pb) were non-detectable or within the permissible limits stated by the World Health Organization (WHO) and Egyptian Organization of Standardization (EOS) in all water types, feed and tissues. The levels of cadmium (Cd) were nondetectable or within permissible limits in both water types, while it was detected in the feed of all farms and exceeded the permissible limit in farms B and C with increased tissue residue in farm B. Iron (Fe) water level was non-detectable in farm A, while it was detected in the other farms and were within the permissible limit. Iron feed and tissues levels were considerably high in broilers in all tested farms. Sodium was detected in higher levels in water and feed of farms C and D with exceeding permissible limits in the water. The sodium (Na) level was significantly higher in kidney samples of farm C than in other farms. Calcium (Ca) levels were higher in the water of farms C and D than permissible limits with significantly higher kidney residue in farm D than others. Magnesium (Mg) was detected in water within the permissible limit in all farms with more values in Farms C and D that were reflected as significant elevations in tissue residues of the former farms. Levels of heavy metal are variable between different farms under investigation with high levels of lead and cadmium in farms that used tap water for broilers farms that were attributed to the nearness of human activities to such farms.
