Energy Dispersive X-rays Fluorescence (EDXRF) technique was used to analyze
the elemental concentrations of some heavy and toxic metals in some instant food
samples. For all measured samples, the mean concentrations of Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu,
Zn, and As are within their respective safe limit except Cd and Hg. It was found that the
mercury concentration in instant noodles samples is significantly the highest among the
instant food samples. No risk was found for the elements of Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn,
and As. But, the elements, Cd and Hg, were found to cause the risk to the consumers by
consuming the instant foods.
