Abstract
An exposure assessment was conducted to quantitate tetracyclines (TCs) in chickens and the risk estimates were calculated using deterministic and probabilistic approaches. The results revealed that through deterministic approach estimated daily exposure to TCs resulted in children aged 1y3 and 4y6 (0.05919 and 0.03946 g/kg bw/day) followed by adults (0.02847 g/kg bw/day) and children aged 7y10 at 0.02631 g/kg bw/day. Based on the probabilistic approach dietary exposure of Malaysian adults to TCs was estimated to range from 0.00174“0.35209 g/kg bw/day. In comparison for the children group the estimated exposure was higher in age 1y3 at 0.0137 “ 1.9845 g/kg bw/day followed by children aged 4y6 and 7y10 at 0.00718 “ 1.3967 g/kg bw/day and 0.00834 “ 0.91841 g/kg bw/day respectively. However the estimated risk calculated for all groups was 10 ADI. These indicate that toxicological risk with regard to the consumption of chicken meat could not be considered as a public health problem but the result can be supportive for the safety authorities to engage policies in managing any potential risk. The occurrence of high concentration of TCs residues in small samples still warrants closer monitoring and management of the use of TCs in chicken farms in Peninsular Malaysia.
