Three categories of environmental contaminants generally occur in food: natural and synthetic organic compounds, traces of heavy metal, and certain natural and synthetic radioactive substances (51, 69). This chapter summarizes the sources, occurrence, extent of exposure, and regulation of selected substances belonging to the first two categories, i.e.,

Contamination from skin-painting test chemicals
Food and Cosmetics Toxicology, 1979Abstract Anthracene, a non-carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, dissolved in acetone was painted on the clipped dorsal skin of mice in a laminar flow hood. Samples were taken over a 17-day period to estimate worker exposures to, and environmental contamination from, the chemicals used.

In Western societies today, the issue of food consumption has evolved from a relatively short chain of trading between producer and consumer to a complex chain of different parties. Today, food consumption includes large-scale production, time-efficient handling, transport, and packaging of food.

Chemical food contaminants are substances which are neither present naturally in the usual raw material used for food production nor are added during the regular production process. Examples are environmental pollutants or contaminants derived from agricultural production of crops or livestock or from inadequate manufacturing of the food product itself.

Physical and Chemical Contamination
1991The sanitary production of foods as outlined in the federal code for good manufacturing practice includes restrictions that prevent contamination by physical or nonliving objects or chemicals. The physical objects range from dust particles to hammers, and the chemicals range from toxic lubricants to juices of another variety.

Embryotoxicity of chemical contaminants of foods
Food and Cosmetics Toxicology, 1971Abstract A brief review of a variety of contaminants that may occur in foodstuffs indicates that in the majority of cases embryotoxicity or teratogenicity are toxic hazards unlikely to arise in practice as a result of such contamination. The major possible exception is mercury especially methylmercury, on which further data are being obtained ...

[Chemical contaminants in food].
Zentralblatt fur Bakteriologie, Mikrobiologie und Hygiene. Serie B, Umwelthygiene, Krankenhaushygiene, Arbeitshygiene, praventive Medizin, 1987Due to a direct material linking between environment and man via breath, food and potable water, toxic substances have always been in the food of man, only modern analytical methods have made it possible to safely register concentrations in the ppb-range and below.
