Heavy metal level assessment in canned fish / Muhammad Aisamuddin Ahmad

Heavy metal (Zn, Cu, Pb and Cd) concentration of canned sardine and canned mackerel, commercialized in Malaysia were determined using Flame Atomic Analyzer Spectroscopy (FAAS). The average contents of heavy metals in canned sardine and canned mackerel were found as 0.264 and 0.222 mg/kg for zinc,...
