  12. [ASAP] Source Contribution Analysis and Collaborative Assessment of Heavy Metals in Vegetable-Growing Soils

    • Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

    • Source quantification of heavy metals in farmland is essential for developing and implementing restoration strategies. We used various data analyses to identify and quantify sources of arsenic, cadmium, chromium, copper, mercury, nickel, lead, and zinc in vegetable-growing soils. A new method of collaborative assessment, combining soil environmental quality and agricultural product safety, showed that approximately 5.20% of cultivation systems were multi-contaminated by heavy metals.

  24. [ASAP] Influences of Light Intensity and ß-Carotene on Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons and Aldehydes in Vegetable Oil: A Case Study Using Palm Oil

    • Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

    • This study investigated the effects of three light intensities on four types of palm oils during consecutive storage for 12 months at 4 °C. The concentrations of 4-hydroxy-2-trans-hexenal (4-HHE), 4-hydroxy-2-trans-nonenal (4-HNE), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)4, and PAH8 in the oils significantly increased with the increasing light intensity after storage.
