Arsenic (As) is a naturally occurring element in the Earth’s crust. Both anthropogenic and natural processes can release As into sources for drinking water supply. A substantial epidemiological evidence is available to support that the chronic exposure to high concentrations in drinking water (> 10 μg/L) is associated with several detrimental effec...
Arsenic is a ubiquitous, naturally occurring metalloid that poses a significant risk for human cancer and non-cancer diseases. It is now evident that arsenic contamination in food, especially rice and grains, presents a significant exposure to hundreds of millions of individuals worldwide. However, the disease risk from chronic exposure to the low ...

An overview about the presence of arsenic (As) in groundwaters of Argentina, made by a transdisciplinary group of experts is presented. Aspects on As occurrence, effects of As on human health, regulations regarding the maximum allowable amount of As in drinking water as well as bottled water, and analytical techniques for As determination are pres...

Background: Exposure to arsenic and cadmium is common. Epidemiological and animal studies have suggested that exposure to these two heavy metals can cause metabolic health problems, including type 2 diabetes (T2DM). It has been hypothesized that T2DM could be mediated through the gut microbiome and the metabolites it produces. Although many studies...

Elevated concentrations of inorganic arsenic, one of the most potent environmental toxicants and carcinogens, have been detected in well water around Lake Poopo, Bolivia This study aimed to assess human exposure to arsenic in villages around Lake Poopo and also to elucidate whether the metabolism and detoxification of arsenic in this population is ...
