In the present investigation the concentrations of arsenic and lead were determined in the “cane juice“ (Saccharum officinarum) in the districts of El Agustino, Rímac, Lima Cercado, La Victoria, San Juan de Lurigancho in the months from November to December 2013. The method used for the determination of arsenic by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy hydride generator and atomic absorption graphite furnace for lead, because it is the method of choice as current bibliographies, for the determination of metals in different types of samples acceptability is due to their specificity, sensitivity and ease of operation. Samples were collected on 5 more populous districts of Lima; El Agustino, Rímac, Lima Cercado, La Victoria, San Juan de Lurigancho which avenues congested and high burden of air pollution and soil, which is related to the increased pedestrian traffic and vehicular were selected according to management urban transport of the Municipality of Metropolitan Lima turn samples were collected in two hours; the first gathering was at 10:00 am and after 6:00 pm, the analyzes were performed in the Chemical Services Unit Tests (USAQ) School of chemistry and chemical engineering (FQIQ) National University Mayor de San Marcos (San Marcos). An average of 29.23 ppb arsenic (µg /L) was obtained. In the case of lead 446.10 average ppb (µg /L) was obtained. The average concentration of arsenic at 10:00 am was not detectable or < 1 ppb (µg /L) and at 6:00 pm was 53.16 ppb (µg /L) with a standard deviation of σ=136.85. In determining lead the analysis of the sample taken at 10:00 am the average concentration was 363.61 ppb (µg /L) with a standard deviation of σ=275.29 and at 6:00 pm was 513.59 ppb (µg /L) with a σ=standard deviation of 340.63. It is concluded that arsenic concentrations do not exceed the maximum permissible limits (MPL) as World Health Organization (WHO), UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and Codex Alimentarius is 200 ppb but in the case of lead limits exceed the maximum permissible values according to WHO, FAO and Codex Alimentarius is 100 ppb and in turn it is concluded that the concentrations of lead and arsenic increase the longer the time of exposure to the environment. More interest by health authorities, in turn sellers promote health awareness in the stages of production of “cane juice“.
