Abstract:
The study was conducted to evaluate the modified method and standard method for the
determination of mercury in "keropok keping" and "keropok lekor". The samples were
analyzed by using Cold Vapor -Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (CV-AAS). Several
parameters were evaluated for both methods such as linearity, precision, accuracy and
detection limit. The certified reference material used was DOL T-2 (DogFish Liver).The
parameter shows better precision and accuracy for the modified method than standard
method in the determination of mercury content in keropok lekor.
