abstract = "In this research, health risk indices have been used to monitor the transfer of possible contaminants, such as toxic elements, from grapes to humans. The phenolic and elemental profiles of autochthonous and international grape varieties collected in a vineyard located in East Serbia were analyzed. The following results represent a continuation of our previous investigations [1, 2] on phenolic and elemental composition of different grapevine varieties. Here, phenolic acids were determined in skins, seeds, and pulp of grape samples, along with total phenolic content and radical scavenging activity. Total phenolic content and radical scavenging activity were highest in the seeds of autochthonous variety ‘Plovdina’, and in the skins of ‘Smederevka’, where also the highest contents of ferulic, chlorogenic, and caffeic acids were found. Protocatechuic acid was detected only in the seeds of autochthonous varieties. Elemental composition was established for each variety, in the whole berry. ‘Plovdina’ grapes had lower quantities of Al, Ni, and Na in comparison to the other varieties intended for white wine production. Significant correlations obtained among the most abundant elements, pointed to some synergistic interrelations. The potential threat of noncarcinogenic and carcinogenic risk for adults and children who regularly consume the grapes was assessed by calculating daily intake rate, target hazard quotient, hazard index, chronic daily intake, and target cancer risk. Obtained results indicate that all studied grape samples were safe for human consumption.",
