Rice finding 1184
Source evidence and comparison details for the Rice profile.
Rice grain, edible part (form unspecified; washed, oven-dried at 70-80 °C) · Total chromium (Cr) · 57 composite samples (sub-samples mixed per sampling station).
Selected finding and reference
57 composite samples (sub-samples mixed per sampling station). Basis: dry weight.
No non-detects reported for rice; LOD/LOQ not reported
HMI baseline position
Limited data: The source reports a range, percentile or extreme value; only a mean, median or sample result can be positioned against a reference. Missing evidence never means low contamination.
The source reports a range, percentile or extreme value; only a mean, median or sample result can be positioned against a reference.
Reference version and interpretation
Frozen evidence selection: 2026-10-22. Method: hmi-pooled-reference-v2.
No admitted reference
The reference is computed by HMI from admitted evidence, not copied from a study baseline. It describes the evidence currently in this scope; it is not a worldwide or current-lot benchmark. Source, year and region filters do not change it. Different HMI scopes are not one common ranking.
Collection period
2016
No year-by-year sample register is reconstructed from this summary.
Geographic scope
Tangail industrial-area
Sampling site within one study.
Sampling, analysis and reporting limits
Microwave digestion (HNO3/HCl, closed Teflon vessel), ICP-MS Agilent 7700.
No non-detects reported for rice; LOD/LOQ not reported
Source inconsistency noted (does not affect this value): mean 10.78 mg/kg dw total Cr in rice is orders of magnitude above typical rice grain Cr; CRM was NIST 1547 peach leaves (non-matched matrix) and no recoveries or LODs are reported.
Shared samples and study overlap
Subgroup rows, statistics of the same subgroup and the study total share samples; they are not independent results.
Each table row describes a food/analyte result. Repeated rows do not add independent samples or datasets. No cross-study trend is calculated in this comparison mode.
Reported values, conversion and source locator

No moisture, cooking-yield or species conversion is applied to the original finding above. Any basis conversion used for its HMI comparison is stated separately with the numerical target.
