Evaluation of some Mineral Concentrations of Cheese using Inductively Coupled PlasmaAtomic Emission Spectrometer

Journal Title: Haya: The Saudi Journal of Life Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 9

Abstract

Abstract:In this work concentrations of ten different minerals were evaluated in commercial white cheese, pigtail cheese and triangles cheese. Minerals were analyzed by an Inductively Coupled plasma-Atomic Emission Spectrometer (ICP-AES). Respective mean mineral concentration (ppm) of white cheese, pigtail cheese and cheese triangles were: Al 94.125, 73.75, 64.0; Cr 0, 0, 0 ; Mn 1.40, 1.2875, 0.6875; Fe 13.075, 16.45, 6.675; Ni 8.6125, 8.8, 6.925; Cu 0, 0, 0; Zn 22.4125, 22.9125, 14.7875; Cd 1.2, 0.6625, 0.4375; Ba 0, 0, 0; Pb 16.375, 4.9, 4.6125. These results show that there is some minerals (Cr, Cu and Ba) were not exist and other found with high concentration in comparison with the standard specification. Keywords: Inductively coupled plasma (ICP), Minerals, Pigtail cheese, Triangles cheese, White cheese.
