Ecological risk assessment of heavy metals in sediment and human health risk assessment of heavy metals in fishes in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River basin
TL;DR: Investigation of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China found that heavy metals may be mainly derived from metal processing, electroplating industries, industrial wastewater, and domestic sewage, and Hg may also originate from coal combustion.

Health risks of heavy metals to the general public in Tianjin, China via consumption of vegetables and fish.
TL;DR: Consumption of vegetables and fish contaminated with the heavy metals Cu, Zn, Pb, Cd, Hg, and Cr is the most likely route for human exposure in Tianjin, China and health risks associated with these heavy metals were assessed.
Codex general standard for contaminants and toxins in food and feed
TL;DR: The definitions for the purpose of the Codex Alimentarius, as mentioned in the Procedural Manual, are applicable to the General Standard for Contaminants and Toxins in Food and Feed (GSCTFF) and only the most important ones are repeated here.
