Rice consumption is a major source of arsenic for Asian populations. Arsenic is present in
rice grain both as inorganic arsenic and as dimethylarsinic acid (DMA). It is unclear whether …

Abstract Background and aims Rice (Oryza sativa) is a main source of human exposure to
inorganic arsenic and mitigation measures are needed to decrease As accumulation in this …

Rice consumption is a major source of cadmium and arsenic for the population of Asia. We
investigated the effects of water management in rice paddy on levels of cadmium and …

Rice is a major source of dietary arsenic (As). The effects of paddy water management, straw
incorporation, the applications of nitrogen fertilizer or organic manure, and the additions of …

The use of arsenic (As) contaminated groundwater for irrigation of crops has resulted in
elevated concentrations of arsenic in agricultural soils in Bangladesh, West Bengal (India) …

Arsenic accumulation in rice grain has been identified as a major problem in some regions
of Asia. A study was conducted to investigate the effect of increased organic matter in the …

Paddy rice is a global staple food which in some circumstances can contain high levels of
the toxic element arsenic (As). In order to elucidate factors influencing As dissolution in the …

Rice represents a major route of As exposure in populations that depend on a rice diet.
Practical measures are needed to mitigate the problem of excessive As accumulation in …

Accumulation of inorganic arsenic (iAs) and dimethylarsenate (DMA) in rice threatens
human health and rice yield, respectively. We studied the yet unclear interactions of soil …

Rice is a major source of inorganic arsenic (iAs) in the human diet because paddy rice is
efficient at accumulating As. Rice As speciation is dominated by iAs and dimethylarsinic acid …
