Rice finding 984

Source evidence and comparison details for the Rice profile.

Li et al. 2024

Rice grain, shelled (dehusked) by residents, uncooked; milling degree not stated · Cadmium (Cd) · 90 household rice samples.

Selected finding and reference

3–2,490 µg/kg (range)Range.

90 household rice samples. Basis: unspecified.

Source replaced values below detection limit with half the LOD (LOD 0.001 ug/g for Cd in rice); all printed rice minima exceed LOD

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

Collection date unreported

No year-by-year sample register is reconstructed from this summary.

Geographic scope

Enshi County local rice

Sampling site within one study.

Sampling, analysis and reporting limits

Microwave digestion with 65% HNO3 (MARS6); Cd by ICP-MS (iCAP Qa); Se by AFS.

Source replaced values below detection limit with half the LOD (LOD 0.001 ug/g for Cd in rice); all printed rice minima exceed LOD

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.
