Level of heavy metals detection (Cadmium & Ferum) in anas platyrhynchos and its potential health risk to human / Nur Farhana Ishak
A cross-sectional study on concentration of cadmium and iron in meat tissues were determined in male and female of White Pekin duck. Estimation of human consumption towards duck meat were determined through health risk assessment. Total of 36 White Pekin duck consisted of 18 males and 18 females wer...
