Estimation of dietary intake and target hazard quotients for metals by consumption of wines from the Canary Islands

Abstract

This paper describes the impact of mineral content on wines and assesses the potential health risk from consuming these wines from Canary Islands. The metal content (B, Ca, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Li, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, Ni, Pb, Zn) of red wines belonging to different regions in the Canary Islands was determined by ICP-OES. The studied wine regions were Valle de la Orotava, Tacoronte-Acentejo, Ycoden-Daute-Isora, Abona and Valle de Güimar in Tenerife Island and only one in La Gomera and La Palma Islands. According to the content found, elements could be classified in two categories: the main group including Ca, K, Mg, Na, and the ''minor'' set consisting of B, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Li, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb and Zn. Once calculated the metal intake through red wines consumption, we can conclude that Canarian drinkers are not exposed to unsafe levels of the metals studied, actually, the safety intake limits (daily) ranges between 0.9% in Zn and 2% in Cu, for normal drinkers. And also it has been demonstrated the good quality of Canarian red wines and there is no reason for health concern through the THQ calculation being the highest values determined in La Gomera wines.
