Rice finding 2641
Source evidence and comparison details for the Rice profile.
Rice grain, all types grouped (FoodEx2 'Rice and similar') · Dimethylarsinic acid (DMA) · 439 analytical results (rice DMA); 411 rice MMA results.
Selected finding and reference
439 analytical results (rice DMA); 411 rice MMA results. Basis: whole weight (as stated for the final data set).
EFSA LB/UB substitution: LB sets <LOD/<LOQ to 0, UB to the reported LOD/LOQ; no imputation by this extraction. LB = UB at this percentile.
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
2012–2022
No year-by-year sample register is reconstructed from this summary.
Geographic scope
Rice and similar (all rice types)
All samples in the study.
Sampling, analysis and reporting limits
Mainly ICP-MS (87% of DMA results), mostly LC-ICP-MS (72% DMA; 90% MMA).
EFSA LB/UB substitution: LB sets <LOD/<LOQ to 0, UB to the reported LOD/LOQ; no imputation by this extraction. LB = UB at this percentile.
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.
