Abstract:

The present study was conducted on 90 random samples of raw chicken meat (breast; thigh and drum stick, 15 of each) and processed chicken meat (hot wings; nuggets and shawerma, 15 of each) collected from different poultry slaughter shops and supermarkets in Kaliobia Governorate, for determination ofthe heavy metals residues (lead, cadmium, arsenic and copper) in them and their acceptability for human consumption. The results revealed that, for raw chicken meat samples; the mean values of lead, cadmium, arsenic and copper, concentrations "mg/Kg" in the examined samples of breast were 0.19 ± 0.01; 0.09 ± 0.01; 0.03 ± 0.01 and1.94 ± 0.05,respectively; for thigh samples ,they were 0.26 ± 0.01;0.11 ± 0.01;0.04 ± 0.01 and 2.08 ± 0.06, respectively and for drum stick samples , they were0.35 ± 0.02;0.14 ± 0.02;0.06 ± 0.01 and 2.25 ± 0.06, respectively. Meanwhile, for processed chicken meat samples; these mean values in hot wings samples, they were 0.39 ± 0.01; 0.19 ± 0.01; 0.07 ± 0.01 and 2.18 ± 0.09, respectively; for nuggets samples were 0.47 ± 0.02; 0.25 ± 0.01; 0.10 ± 0.01 and 2.41 ± 0.11, respectively and for shawerma samples ,they were0.61 ± 0.02;0.32 ± 0.01;0.12 ± 0.01and 2.63 ± 0.12, respectively. Moreover, the study concluded that, raw chicken meat and processed chicken meat products have public health hazard as the residues in them, might be exceeded the recommended safe permissible limits.
