This work investigates the level of exposure to cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), and lead (Pb) via fish seafood products in adult population Bosnia Herzegovina (BiH). Metals content was determined seven commercial species widely available consumed BiH. Analysis Cd Pb performed by GFAAS (Graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry), analysis Hg FIAS AAS (flow injection cold vapour spectrometry) accredited laboratory for food analysis. The health risk estimated weekly intake, hazard index,...
Childhood stunting is a global phenomenon affecting more than 149 million children under the age of 5 worldwide. Exposure to aflatoxins (AFs)
Abstract The main objective of this study was to determine levels certain persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in Neretva River, Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), which is currently facing implementation the Stockholm Convention on environmental protection strategies. This very first report deployment semipermeable membrane devices (SPMDs) BiH. SPMDs were used for continuous 3-weeks sampling POPs at three locations, covering 220 km long stream River. Water concentrations polychlorinated...
The aim of this study was to determine the antioxidant activity, total phenolics, flavonoid, proanthocyanidins, and anthocyanins content eight berry species, namely serviceberry, gooseberry, blackberry, black chokeberry, bilberry, red currant, cornelian cherry harvested in regions Sarajevo Tuzla, Bosnia Herzegovina. activity determined by a battery vitro tests including DPPH radical assay, FRAP ABTS phosphomolybdate test for capacity. Total flavonoids, proanthocyanidins ranged from 0.834...
