| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Seafood contains organic arsenic compounds such as arsenosugar (AsSug) and arsenolipid (AsLipid). The mechanisms of elution and metabolism of these arsenics in the human gastrointestinal tract are not clearly understood. In the present study, we observed the amount of arsenic elution from wakame seaweed and the metabolism of the AsSug and AsLIpid in a in vitro artificial gastrointestinal system. In this result, the human enteric bacteria increased the amount of eluted arsenic from wakame seaweed. After artificial digestion, not DMA but several AsSugs and an unidentified arsenic compound were detected. These results suggested that the AsSug and AsLipid are absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and then metabolically converted to DMA in liver.
