ZINC content determination in rice and other agriproducts by x-ray fluorescence
Main Article Content
Abstract
The Zn content in foodstuffs (rice, some vegetables and roots) regularly consumed in Cuba is reported. Concentrations are determined by X-Ray Fluorescence analysis using a set of organic standards doped with Zn. The accuracy of the analytical procedure was validated using the Certified Reference Materials AIEA 393 and MAB3/ TM. The obtained results show rice as the major Zn bioaccumulator of the studied agriproducts and the main Zn source of human consumption in Cuba.
