Identifying Trace Elements in Rice
Rice is one of the most widely consumed foods worldwide, 30% of all rice produced comes from China. Recently it has been found that groundwater and soil in China contain high concentration levels of the highly toxic element arsenic, a metal naturally present in the Earth’s crust. To measure the 2D distribution of arsenic and other trace elements in rice grown in China and Hungary the grains were measured by confocal micro x-ray fluorescence at DESY in Hamburg.
