Canned luncheon meat, a conventional food for numerous people, have been a common sight on our tables. Canned meats after going several processes in both cooking and packaging are contaminated with heavy metals. Kinds of canned luncheon meats, namely Virginia and Maling were analyzed for heavy metal content by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy. The metals analyzed were cooper, lead, tin, and zinc. The results showed that the concentration of copper, lead and zinc are at acceptable level. However, the lead concentration in both brands are alarming. It exceeds the toxic limit. 1991-01-01T08:00:00Z text https://animorepository.dlsu.edu.ph/etd_bachelors/5712 Bachelor's Theses English Animo Repository Canned foods Food Chemistry |
