Abstract: | The mercury contents of food samples representative of the total diet have been determined by neutron activation analysis. The mercury was separated by anion-exchange chromatography and precipitated as the sulfide. The mercury concentrations for the different fractions of total diet samples were well below 50 p.p.b. Only in the meat, fish, and poultry fraction were measurable amounts of mercury encountered regularly. |
