Objective

To investigate the heavy metal pollution and evaluate the dietary exposure risk of soy sauce in 2024.

Methods

This study collected 180 portions of soy sauce, including 139 portions of pre-packaged soy sauce and 41 portions of bulk soy sauce. Content of 7 kinds of elements including lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd),chromium (Cr), total arsenic (As), manganese (Mn), nickel (Ni) and copper (Cu) were determined by national standards. The pollution degree of Pb and As was evaluated by single-factor pollution index method (Pi) and nemerow comprehensive pollution index method (PN). The dietary exposure risk was evaluated by target hazard quotient (THQ) and total target hazard quotient (TTHQ).

Results

The heavy metals were detected in all soy sauces,but there were differences in the types of heavy metals. According to the limited requirements of GB 2762—2022 National food safety standard-Limits of contaminants in food (Pb≤1.0 mg/kg and As≤0.5 mg/kg), only Pb in the 139 portions of pre-packaged soy sauce was detected to have unqualified samples, with an unqualified rate of 2.16%.The average content of other detected heavy metals was sorted as Mn>Ni>Pb>Cr>Cu>As>Cd. The 41 portions of bulk soy sauce Pb and As met the limited quantity requirements. And the average content of other detected heavy metals was sorted as Mn>Ni>Cr>Pb. Out of 180 soy sauce samples, 3 pre packaged soy sauce samples had reached the pollution level for Pb, while the rest were safe. PN showed that pre packaged soy sauce Pb was mildly contaminated,bulk soy sauce Pb was close to the warning line, and As was safe. The THQ and TTHQ values of heavy metals in all soy sauce were less than 1.

Conclusion

Most soy sauces have low contamination levels, only a small number of soy sauces are in mild and moderate contaminated. Therefore, the quality monitoring of soy sauce condiments should be strengthened. Under normal intake, the risk of dietary exposure of heavy metals in soy sauce is acceptable.
