Abstract
71 samples of baby foods such as juices, creams, f'ruits, puddings and soups produced by the two industries which process baby foods in Brazil, sold
at groceries of the city of São Paulo, were analysed for their lead content by atomic-absorption spectrophotometry. The levels observed falI in the range from 0.02 mgvkg to 0.37 mgv'kg with a median of 0.11 mg/kg and the 90th percentile of 0.20 mg Zkg; Ali them had levels accetable according to Brazilian law for th ese foods.
