摘要

Shallow tube well water is highly contaminated with arsenic (As) in arsenic affected area in West Bengal. The results of a total 25 samples in that area showed increased level of arsenic contents in soil (range: 9.671 to 14.964 ppm, n=5), tube well water (range: 0.171 to 0.497 ppm, n=5), paddy plants (range: 0.994 to 3.059 ppm, n=5) and the concentration of cow milk (mean: 0.156 ±0.009 ppm) was 12 times higher than the healthy cattle (0.013 ± 0.011 ppm) from non affected area. Extensive withdrawal of arsenic contaminated ground water contaminates surface soils and plants and causes hazardous effect on animals and arsenic contaminated milk would be dangerous for human consumption through food chain. Introduction Arsenic is one of the most toxic metals derived from natural environment. It is relatively common element that occurs in air, soil and all living tissues. Ground water is one of the most important sources of drinking water and the contamination of ground water with arsenic is one of the serious problems encountered in India. Soil contamination with arsenic occurs through the vehicle-contaminated groundwater being used for irrigation. Arsenic contamination of plants occurs by irrigation with contaminated ground water. The input of arsenic to soil from various sources may prove detrimental to plant through its uptake to the toxic limit, thereby facilitating its entry into the food chain. There is also the possibility of biomagnification of the toxin as it travels up in the food web (Sanyal and Nasar, 2002, Ghosh et al., 2004. The present study was undertaken with the following objectives:To determine the concentration of arsenic in soil and to correlate these level with the amount of arsenic this is contaminated with ground water.To determine the concentration of arsenic in paddy plants that are consumed by cattle.To determine the contribution of arsenic from agricultural food chain to cow milk.
