Rice finding 1234
Source evidence and comparison details for the Rice profile.
Rice grain unspecified · Total chromium (Cr) · 10 rice samples (n from text, Section 3.1.1).
Selected finding and reference
10 rice samples (n from text, Section 3.1.1). Basis: fresh weight (as labelled; see notes).
No non-detects 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
2012
No year-by-year sample register is reconstructed from this summary.
Geographic scope
Rice
All samples in the study.
Sampling, analysis and reporting limits
Washed, oven dried 70-80 C, ground; microwave HNO3/H2O2 digestion; ICP-MS (Agilent tuning); total As not speciated.
No non-detects 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.
