ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the safety of artificial musk by determining its content of five hazard heavy metals.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The contents of Pb, Cd,As,Hg,and Cu in artificial musk were detected using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>The contents of Pb,Cd,As,Hg,and Cu was less than 0.35,0.05,0.30,0.20,and 4.50 mg/kg in artificial musk.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Artificial musk has low contents of heavy metals and therefore meets the safety and quality requirments.</p>
