Rice finding 1301
Source evidence and comparison details for the Rice profile.
Cooked rice composite (category 2_12 Rice: dried rice boiled per label instructions, cooked rice, takeaway rice, and all cooked rice excluding fried rice e.g. boiled, pilau, savoury) · Lead (Pb) · 1 one category composite built from 24 retail samples.
Selected finding and reference
1 one category composite built from 24 retail samples. Basis: as prepared for consumption (cooked), mg/kg as received or prepared.
below LoD; reported as '<' the sample LoD (not imputed)
Low / Moderate / High rating
No relative rating: reporting limits leave the target median bounded. Overlapping bounds do not establish equal levels or a direction of difference.
Selected comparison
Limits overlapNo compatible same-study subgroup with the same statistic, basis and analyte.Within-study comparisons use the same source, analyte, statistic and analytical method.Collection period
2014
No year-by-year sample register is reconstructed from this summary.
Geographic scope
UK TDS 2014 rice category
All samples in the study.
Sampling, analysis and reporting limits
HNO3/HCl microwave digestion (UltraWAVE), Agilent 7700x ICP-MS; inorganic As by HCl/chloroform extraction and back-extraction then ICP-MS.

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.
