Le résumé fourni par la source
Industrial contamination can influence the transfer of toxic and essential elements through soil–plant–animal systems and may pose risks to food safety. This study aimed to determine whether contamination patterns in soil are reflected in forage vegetation and meat products and to evaluate trace-element behavior across interconnected components of the soil–plant–animal system. This study assessed the distribution and transfer of 12 elements (As, Be, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, V, and Zn) in soil, forage vegetation, and meat products from five industrially affected areas of Central Kazakhstan. Element concentrations were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Soil contained the highest concentrations of most elements, confirming its role as the primary reservoir of contamination, whereas forage vegetation reflected local pollution patterns. The highest levels of contamination were generally observed in the industrial centers of Temirtau and Zhezkazgan, with Zhezkazgan exhibiting the most distinct element profile. Soil-to-forage transfer was most pronounced for Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn, with significant positive relationships between soil and forage concentrations (p < 0.001). Meat products generally contained lower element concentrations than soil and forage; however, Cd, Hg, and As exceeded regulatory limits in 23 of 279 samples (8.2%). By integrating environmental and animal-derived matrices within a single framework, this study provides new insight into trace-element transfer pathways and facilitates the identification of priority contaminants, high-risk areas, and livestock products requiring enhanced environmental and food safety monitoring in industrial regions.
