Abstract

The study aimed to monitor heavy metal (chromium, Cr; cadmium, Cd; nickel, Ni; copper, Cu; lead, Pb; iron, Fe; manganese, Mn; and zinc, Zn) footprints in biological matrices (urine, whole blood, saliva, and hair), as well as in indoor industrial dust samples, and their toxic effects on oxidative stress and health risks in exposed workers. Overall, blood, urine, and saliva samples exhibited significantly higher concentrations of toxic metals in exposed workers (Cr; blood 16.30 μg/L, urine 58.15 μg/L, saliva 5.28 μg/L) than the control samples (Cr; blood 5.48 μg/L, urine 4.47 μg/L, saliva 2.46 μg/L). Indoor industrial dust samples also reported to have elevated heavy metal concentrations, as an example, Cr quantified with concentration of 299 mg/kg of dust, i.e., more than twice the level of Cr in household dust (136 mg/kg). Superoxide dismutase (SOD) level presented significant positive correlation (p ≤ 0.01) with Cr, Zn, and Cd (Cr > Zn > Cd) which is an indication of heavy metal's associated raised oxidative stress in exposed workers. Elevated average daily intake (ADI) of heavy metals resulted in cumulative hazard quotient (HQ) range of 2.97-18.88 in workers of different surgical units; this is an alarming situation of health risk implications. Principal component analysis-multiple linear regression (PCA-MLR)-based pie charts represent that polishing and cutting sections exhibited highest metal inputs to the biological and environmental matrices than other sources. Heavy metal concentrations in biological matrices and dust samples showed a significant positive correlation between Cr in dust, urine, and saliva samples. Current study will help to generate comprehensive base line data of heavy metal status in biomatrices and dust from scientifically ignored industrial sector. Our findings can play vital role for health departments and industrial environmental management system (EMS) authorities in policy making and implementation.

摘要

该研究旨在监测生物基质(尿液、全血、唾液和头发)以及室内工业粉尘样本中的重金属(铬、镉、镍、铜、铅、铁、锰和锌)足迹,及其对接触工人氧化应激和健康风险的毒性影响。总体而言,接触工人的血液、尿液和唾液样本中有毒金属的浓度(铬;血液中16.30μg/L,尿液中58.15μg/L,唾液中5.28μg/L)显著高于对照样本(铬;血液中5.48μg/L,尿液中4.47μg/L,唾液中2.46μg/L)。室内工业粉尘样本的重金属浓度也有所升高,例如,铬的定量浓度为299mg/kg粉尘,即超过家庭粉尘中铬含量(136mg/kg)的两倍。超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)水平与铬、锌和镉呈显著正相关(p≤0.01)(铬>锌>镉),这表明接触工人中重金属相关的氧化应激增加。不同外科科室工人的重金属日均摄入量升高,导致累积危险商(HQ)范围为2.97 - 18.88;这是一个令人担忧的健康风险状况。基于主成分分析 - 多元线性回归(PCA - MLR)的饼图显示,抛光和切割部门对生物和环境基质的金属输入高于其他来源。生物基质和粉尘样本中的重金属浓度显示,粉尘、尿液和唾液样本中的铬之间存在显著正相关。当前研究将有助于生成来自科学上被忽视的工业部门的生物基质和粉尘中重金属状况的综合基线数据。我们的研究结果可为卫生部门和工业环境管理系统(EMS)当局的政策制定和实施发挥重要作用。
