2. For large scale of production, natural feeding method is not enough, so poultry
industry need a feed type with extra nutrition (Malu et al., 2015)
enhancement would cause accumulation of heavy metal in the poultry (Islam et al.,
2013)
Different parts of poultry tissues have different concentrations of heavy metal
accumulation (John et al., 1994).
Broiler chickens have more harmful chemicals from their feed and growth injection
but kampong chicken might be contaminated from the unknown source as they are
free to feed anywhere (Khan, 2013)
through food chain, human would also be affected when consuming the chickens
(Bowring, 2005).
3. To measure heavy metals distribution in chicken hearts,
gizzard, liver, skin, and muscles of wings, breast, and
thigh.
To estimate heavy metals content in chicken feed
To compare accumulation of heavy metals between
commercial chicken and kampong chicken
To estimate Human Health Risk Assessment of the
chickens (EDI and THQ)

• However, Pb was found exceeding 1 that may cause hazards for adults and
children consumers
• Pb in the chicken consumption should be investigated further
• Local food regulations should be revise more frequently, so that we know the
real status of today ‘s hazard possibilities
