Supplemental Figure 1 Box and whisker plot of all metals with measured amounts greater than the limit of detection (LOD; n = 26) in 73 sparkling wine samples from the Niagara region. The area between the upper and lower edges of the boxes represents the interquartile range from the 25th to the 75th percentile, respectively; the internal horizontal line represents the median, and the cross indicates the mean. Whiskers above and below the boxes extend to the maximum and minimum values, respectively, with calculated outliers identified as open circular data points.
