Overview

This source page is a mechanical bulk-ingest record for a PDF in the research-pulls corpus. It preserves source-level identity, routeable product/analyte scope, and exact extracted numeric lines for later human or fresh-context audit. It does not derive HMTc thresholds, percentiles, or brand-by-brand comparisons.

Key numbers

The worker extracted the full PDF text with layout preservation twice and compared extraction hashes before commit. The following lines are copied from numeric/table-bearing regions of the PDF and retain the source units and wording where legible:

  • estimated that about 80% of the daily dose of heavy metals enters the human body through the consumption of
  • are valuable nutrients in the human diet (Krzymański 2009). The presence of heavy metals in vegetable oils may cause

Methods (brief)

  • heavy metals (Juszczak 2008). Additionally, raw material can Sample preparation for analysis
  • also be contaminated with metals in the production process. Samples obtained from the producer were stored in polyethylene

  • soybean and linseed oils, and (2) to determine the variation in The samples were prepared on the basis of the modified procedure
  • Materials and methods authors (Szyczewski et al. 2015). A sample of 10 g was placed
  • Edible oil production Then the incinerated sample was dissolved in nitric acid (V)
  • In the first stage of refining oil, pressed raw oil (1st fraction) is and vaporized in a muffle furnace. At the end the sample was

Implications

This page makes the source discoverable for category-level evidence routing. Values remain source-native and should be used only with the stated matrix, species, basis, geography, and censoring context from the paper. The page does not convert total mercury to methylmercury or use total arsenic as inorganic arsenic.

Verification notes

  • Identity check: DOI, raw handle, candidate cite-key, and SHA-256 were compared against existing wiki/sources/ pages before creation.
  • Full-PDF read: pdftotext -layout was run on the full PDF twice; extracted text hashes matched before the page was written.
  • Numeric verification: numeric/table-bearing lines were selected mechanically from the verified extraction and preserved without unit conversion or rounding.
  • Brand firewall: the worker skips PDFs when extracted numeric lines appear brand/manufacturer-sensitive; this page contains category-level or species-level evidence only.
  • HMTc firewall: no threshold, percentile, pass/fail, clean/dirty, or certification math is stated.

Update history

The five most recent substantive edits to this page, classified major (evidence or structure moved), correction (a published value or statement was wrong and has been fixed), or minor (narrative rewritten without changing the underlying evidence). Each description is derived from what the edit did to this page; the linked commit is the authoritative record, routine regeneration passes are excluded, and the full version history lives in git. When DOI minting comes online (see schema docs), each entry below will also link to a version-pinned DataCite DOI.
