An In Vitro Gastrointestinal Method To Estimate Bioavailable Arsenic in Contaminated Soils and Solid Media

Rodriguez, Robin R., Basta, Nicholas T., Casteel, Stan W., Pace, Lanny W.·1999·Environmental Science & Technology

Abstract

A method was developed to simulate the human gastrointestinal environment and to estimate bioavailability of arsenic in contaminated soil and solid media. In this in vitro gastrointestinal (IVG) method, arsenic is sequentially extracted from contaminated soil with simulated gastric and intestinal solutions. A modified IVG-AB method, where iron hydroxide gel is used to simulate the absorption of arsenic, was also evaluated. Fifteen contaminated soils collected from mining/smelter sites ranging from 401 to 17 460 mg As kg - 1 were analyzed. In vitro results were compared with in vivo relative bioavailable arsenic (RBA) determined from dosing trials using immature swine which ranged from 2.7 to 42.8% RBA. Arsenic extracted by the IVG and IVG-AB methods was not statistically different than RBA arsenic measured by the in vivo method. Arsenic extracted by the IVG stomach and intestinal phases was linearly correlated ( r = 0.83 and 0.82, respectively) with in vivo arsenic ( P < 0.01). Similarly, the IVG-AB method was linearly correlated ( r = 0.79) with in vivo bioavailable arsenic ( P < 0.05). All IVG methods extracted similar amounts of arsenic and provided estimates of bioavailable As in contaminated media. The IVG method may aid in the design and cost-effectiveness of remedial strategies of arsenic-contaminated sites.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
