Catalytic chelating technique on lead, nickel and cadmium removal from Fenneropenaeus merguiensis
Fenneropenaeus merguiensis is one of the main sources of protein in Malaysian dietary. The heavy metals content (0.8495, 0.4923 and 0.0854 ug/g for lead, nickel and cadmium respectively) in F. merguiensis were below permissible limit of Malaysia Food Regulations (1985) and EU Food Regulations.
