Abstract

The concentration of aluminum in salted jellyfish (Rhopilema esculentum) was determined and samples were collected from market located in Shanghai. Risk of aluminum in salted jellyfish was analyzed in the present study. 16 samples were collected from markets in Shanghai, including instant jellyfish and raw salted jellyfish. The results show that the aluminum concentrations of samples ranged from 126.9mg/kg to 489.2mg/kg. In the present study, the concentration of aluminum from different tissues of jellyfish was detected, and the results indicated that there was no significant difference between different tissues. And the risk was analyzed by intake of jellyfish according to the WHO regulations. The analysis results showed that when aluminum concentration exceeded 1000mg/kg, The PTWI value would exceeded the limit of 2mg/kgbw stipulated in WHO regulations. The aluminum intake from salted jellyfish would not influence consumers’ health under normal living mode.
