    Release of lead and cadmium from plastic tableware was examined. Samples were treated with 2 ml of 4% acetic acid or 0.1N HCl per cm2 of the surface area at 60 degrees C or 95 degrees C for 30 min. No migration of lead and cadmium from samples containing up to 391 ppm lead or 6863 ppm cadmium was observed.
