Table 4.

Arsenic and cadmium concentration determined in various multivitamin/mineral dietary supplements by ICP-MS using the developed coprecipitation. Values are mean ± standard deviation of five separate preparations (n = 5). Daily serving size is calculated as the average mass (µg) of As and Cd values per tablet.
