Pesticidas, Peixes, Litoral, Índice de RiscoResumo
Este estudo avaliou o risco alimentar associado ao consumo de peixes da espécie sábalos da bacia inferior do rio Salado (Santa Fé, Argentina), altamente impactada por atividades agroindustriais. Foram relatadas concentrações elevadas de inseticidas, herbicidas e um fungicida em peixes comercializados em feiras artesanais, algumas consideradas entre as mais altas do mundo. A partir desses dados, calculou-se o coeficiente de risco alimentar para a população em geral e vulnerável (habitantes ribeirinhos e pescadores) e para a frequência de consumo sugerida (FCS). O risco obtido foi maior para a população vulnerável e ainda maior para a FCS. O cenário de risco para a saúde humana é agravado pelo potencial carcinogênico de alguns compostos. Considerando o estado da regulamentação nacional e as implicações dos pesticidas detectados, destaca-se a necessidade de revisar as políticas públicas vigentes e aplicar o princípio da precaução na gestão ambiental e sanitária do território.
