文摘

Inexpensive aluminum cookware is widely used throughout the developing world. Cookware from ten developing countries was tested for the leaching of toxic metals. Simulated cooking leached up to 1426 micrograms of lead per 250 mL serving. Al, As and Cd were present in some leachates at potentially harmful levels. Exposure to metals by corrosion of cookware may pose significant public health risks.
