Quantitative analysis using the Cold Vapor Mercury Analyzer with a wavelength of 253.7 nm. The results obtained from this study were 3 positive samples containing mercury with qualitative analysis using KI. Quantitative analysis showed that there were 3 samples containing mercury, namely samples number 12, 15 and 17 with average levels of 0.04217 mg / Kg (ppm), 0.01814 mg / Kg (ppm), and 0.91000 mg / Kg (ppm).
