The objective of the program: Investigating the carcinogenic potential of some chemical contaminants in the Bucharest-Ilfov area and establishing the correlations between them and the incidence of cancer.
Specific objectives:
Investigating the degree of contamination with carcinogenic contaminants in correlation with the incidence of cancers in the studied areas;
Investigation of the types of potential carcinogenic contaminants from the environment (water and soil) and those from the agricultural production;
Identification of the agro-food production transmission vectors of potentially carcinogenic contaminants in food; surveillance and monitoring of contaminants with potential carcinogen in some agri-food products;
Inventory of studies, reports, research on good practices to minimize the accumulation of potentially carcinogenic contaminants in agri-food products; developing good practice guides.
