The purpose of this work was to determine the content of
heavy metals such as antimony, arsenic, barium, cadmium, chromium, lead, mercury, selenium in
leather used by producing baby bootees and to compare the limit values for leather and textiles.
It was concluded that heavy metal content of finished leathers depended mainly on the chemicals
used in processing; in particular, high chromium contents were determined. Moreover, small
amounts of antimony, arsenic, barium, cadmium, lead, mercury and selenium deriving from chemical
and physical reactions during dyeing and finishing processes were detected.
