replicated two times. The parameter of
observation were conducted on plumbum (Pb), mercury (Hg), copper (Cu) and
arsenic (As).The result of the research revealed that plumbum (Pb) of Kerupuk kemplang with
raw material from marine fish and dried
in the roadside with rack had value of plumbum 0,0025 mg/kg and in the roadside

mg/kg. Kerupuk kemplang with raw material from freshwater fish and dried in the
rack of roadside had value of plumbum
0,0021 mg/kg and without rack had the value of 0,0055 mg/kg. Drying on the
