3.1.4. Analysis of nut samples
Twenty five samples of tree nuts, obtained from Spanish and
Brazilian markets, were analysed in triplicate by the developed
methodology being obtained concentrations of Hg from 0.6 to
2.7mg kg1 (see Table 2), of the same order as reported by
Rodushkin [19] and Welna [20]; and 100 times lower than the
value reported by Kannamkumarath [18].
