食品中の発がん性化学物質を検出する手法を改良

研究者らは、高温で調理された食品に生成される可能性がある多環芳香族炭化水素(PAH)を検査する手法を改良しました。

ソウル科学技術大学校の食品工学・バイオテクノロジー学科による2025年の研究では、複数の食品群に対してQuEChERS(ケッチャー)法を用いた検査が行われました。イ・ジョング教授率いるチームは8種類の特定のPAHを測定し、その含有量が最も高かったのは大豆油で、次いで鴨肉、キャノーラ油の順となりました。

Preliminary research from USC Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center, presented at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) annual meeting, found that non-smokers diagnosed with lung cancer before age 50 reported eating more fruits, vegetables and whole grains—and had higher overall Healthy Eating Index scores—than the U.S. population average. The researchers emphasized that the results do not prove diet causes lung cancer and said a possible explanation could involve environmental exposures such as pesticides, a hypothesis that requires direct testing.

A study published in *Nature Health* reports a statistical link between environmental exposure to mixtures of agricultural pesticides and higher cancer risk in Peru. Using modeled pesticide dispersion from 2014 to 2019 and cancer registry data from 2007 to 2020 covering more than 150,000 cases, researchers found that people living in high-exposure areas faced, on average, about a 150% higher likelihood of cancer, with Indigenous and rural farming communities among those most exposed.
