AB  - The content of twenty-one essential and toxic elements in fresh, dried, and processed peppers (Capsicum annuum) obtained from the Serbian market was analyzed. The concentration of the elements varied significantly between the analyzed samples. The most abundant essential element was K with an average concentration of 8.4 g/kg fresh weight. All processed products also had increased Na content, reaching a maximum value of 15.8 g/kg fresh weight in peppers from the pepper-meat products. Toxic elements Pb, Cd, and As were found in all analyzed samples, while Hg was detected in a few samples. Based on guideline values or recommended dietary intake, pepper and pepper products are not a significant source of essential elements. The health risk assessment was conducted by calculating target hazard quotient (THQ) and carcinogenic risk (CR), as well as comparing estimated weekly (Al, Hg, Cd) and daily intake (As, Pb) with appropriate PTWI and BMDL values. The risk assessment results indicate that peppers and pepper products are mostly safe for consumption both for adults and children. However, consumption of some pepper samples may pose a health risk due to an incremental lifetime cancer risk (ILCR) value higher than 10−4

AB  - This study collected agricultural surface soil samples from 200 sites in the district of Braničevo, located in the Carpathian Mountains – Pannonian Basin south of the Danube River (Serbia). The main objective was to determine the soil contamination by ten potentially toxic elements (As, B, Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, Zn) and evaluate the associated ecological risk via different indices. The physicochemical parameters, pH, organic carbon, water content, and soil texture were also analyzed. The mean values of most metal concentrations remained below their corresponding national target values, except for Mo and Ni. The main soil texture types were silt loam (40.5 %) and silty clay loam (34.5 %). According to the mean values, pollution load index (PLI) and potential ecological risk (RI) demonstrated that the soil in the study area was exposed to moderate pollution and moderate ecological risk, while enrichment factor (EF), geoaccumulation index (Igeo), and contamination factor (CF) revealed very high enrichment and contamination with Mo, implying the impact of anthropogenic activities. There was a lack of strong correlations among elements and soil properties, except for Cd and Corg, while moderate to strong positive inter-metal relationships suggested their common sources. The chemometric analysis illustrated the classification of sampling sites into two distinct clusters of spatial similarities according to higher and lower metal concentrations. Geospatial mapping identified a few areas of considerable ecological risk. © 2022,Carpathian Journal of Earth and Environmental Sciences. All Rights Reserved.
