Abstract
The chromium content in foods is relatively low and the most foods hav e a content below 0,1 ppm. Only spices, cacao, cacao products, poppy a nd whole meal products contain higher contents. The often published hi gh chromium content of corn germ oil could not be verified. We did not find any chromium enrichment in the entrails of a cow. In addition th e chromium contents of each food are strong deviated. The analysed val ues were sometimes lower than in literature. We expect that the elder values are higher because of different contaminations in some cases.
