Increased regulations regarding the presence of toxic metals in food and beverages have become a fast growing analytical requirement which ultimately ensures their safety prior to consumption. Stricter regulations have been placed such as the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act, also known as Prop 65, providing guidelines for food and beverage safety. The low detection limits achieved by ICPMS, along with ORS technology provide a reliable means of determining such toxic elements simultaneously and reliably. High Matrix Analysis of As, Se, Cd, Hg, & Pb in various Food Digestates using ICPMS will be presented. New foods hitting the market in recent years, and how they are analyzed, will also be discussed.
