Modeling Dietary Intake of Arsenic in Drinking Water and Food: Impace on Human Health in Bangladesh

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Conference contribution

Abstract

Dietary intake of Arsenic (As) via contaminated drinking water and food is the major exposure pathway for people living in rural Bangladesh [1] where long-term ingestion of As mainly through water and rice causes adverse human health affects [2]. Since As groundwater contamination and the associated human health risk are potentially spatially connected, this research quantifies the spatial variability of As in the rural landscape in relation to As concentrations in drinking and cooking water, rice and other foods.
