Abstract
The lead content of various alcoholic beverages stored in lead crystal decanters has been determined over a period of 60 weeks, using graphite furnace atomic absorption spectroscopy. After 60 weeks the levels of lead ranged from 116 to 2576 ppb. Seven of the nine samples had lead levels above the maximum allowable level of 200 ppb.Keywords
