| description | Pollution becomes a severe issue in Malaysia due to the economic development and increased industrialisation
activities, with the most recent case of chemical residues that polluted the Kim Kim River, at Pasir Gudang, Johor in
March this year. This serious situation may cause by various contaminants such as pesticides or chemical fertiliser
for water pollution, smoke and emission from automotive for air pollution and solid waste for land pollution. The
application of pesticides and chemical fertilisers in agriculture industry lead to heavy metal contamination in herbs
products, thus reduces health quality. The government authority involves in monitoring and preventing the
incidences uses suitable method in detecting the heavy metal contaminant such as Atomic Absorption
Spectrophotometry (AAS), Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP), and Neutron Activation Analysis (NAA). Other than
that, Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (FAAS), Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence (EDXRF), and
Electrothermal Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (ETAAS) were also used. Among the methods, ICPMS has been the
most chosen and a convenience method to detect heavy metal contamination. |
