摘要：
Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) and potentially toxic elements (PTEs) pose risks to human health, here assessed in soils from a municipal dump, an industrial site, agricultural use and a forest reserve. Across the spectrum, there are significant variations in PTEs and EDCs, and arsenic had minimum and maximum values of 2.58 and 2455.75 mg/kg, respectively. Carcinogenic exposure risks, ingestion cancer risks and toxic elements are also assessed. © 2023 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
