Resumo: Under the point of view of human health, the arsenic (As) is a paradox element: it is a natural component of the organism where probably it is essential, it is considered carcinogenic, being part of Group 1 of the IARC and it is also used as medicine against some types of cancer. This ambiguity displays the necessity of understanding the real biological mechanisms of the processes involving this element into the body. It is known that this mechanism is complex and suffers influence of several environmental and genetic factors. Thus, this article focuses some gaps in the current knowledge and presents some results that justify the importance of structuralizing at national level a program of health surveillance that must be initiated for determining the relative concentrations of the arsenic species in foods consumed in Brazil.

Essa ambiguidade expõe a necessidade de se compreenderem os reais mecanismos dos processos biológicos que envolvem esse elemento. Sabe-se que esse mecanismo é complexo e influenciado por uma série de fatores ambientais e genéticos. Assim, este artigo procura apontar algumas lacunas no atual conhecimento e apresenta alguns resultados que justificam a importância de se estruturar nacionalmente um programa de vigilância à saúde que deveria se iniciar pelo conhecimento das concentrações relativas das formas arsenicais nos alimentos consumidos no Brasil.Instituto Nacional de Controle de Qualidade em Saúde2014-02-27info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Peer-reviewed article""Artículo revisado por pares""Artigo avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfhttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/article/view/13010.3395/vd.v2n1.130Health Surveillance under Debate: Society, Science & Technology ; Vol. 2 No. 1 (2014): February; 57-63Vigilancia en Salud en Debate: Sociedad, Ciencia y Tecnología; Vol. 2 Núm. 1 (2014): Febrero; 57-63Vigil Sanit Debate, Rio de Janeiro; v. 2 n. 1 (2014): Fevereiro; 57-632317-269Xreponame:Vigilância Sanitária em Debateinstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZporhttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/article/view/130/84Copyright (c) 2014 Vigilância Sanitária em Debate: Sociedade, Ciência & Tecnologia (Health Surveillance under Debate: Society, Science & Technology) – Visa em Debatehttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessda Silva, Juliana Monteiro BastosBarrio, Ramon J.Moreira, Josino Costa2023-06-27T14:56:18Zoai:ojs.visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br:article/130Revistahttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebatePUBhttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/oaiincqs.visaemdebate@fiocruz.br || gisele.neves@fiocruz.br2317-269X2317-269Xopendoar:2023-06-27T14:56:18Vigilância Sanitária em Debate - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)false
