Abstract
|
|
|
|
Halophyte and shellfish are functional and favorite foods in Korea. This study was conducted to survey the contents of inorganic metals to elucidate seafood hygiene & safety. The average concentrations of heavy metals in the halophyte and shellfish were 1.73, and 1.54 ppb of Cd and 47.37, 25.06 ppm of Cu, respectively. Average contents of Hg in halophytes was 0.26 ppb and 50.43 ppb in shellfish. In case of minerals, the average concentrations were 4,475.62, 4,440.54 ppm of Ca, and 3,936.16, 1,227.09 ppm of Fe, 2,145.36, 6,170.60 ppm of P, and 314.53, 162.11 ppm of Zn, respectively. The average values of heavy metals were all below the permissible amounts in food but minerals showed high levels in halophyte and shellfish.
