This document specifies a method for the determination of arsenic, cadmium, mercury and lead in foodstuffs by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The collaborative study has included foodstuffs having an arsenic content ranging from 0.06 mg/kg to 21.5 mg/kg dry matter (d. m.), cadmium ranging from 0.03 mg/kg to 28.3 mg/kg d. m., mercury ranging from 0.04 mg/kg to 0.56 mg/kg d.m. and lead from 0,01 mg/kg to 2.4 mg/kg d.m.
