DETERMINATION OF FE, CU AND ZN CONTENT IN SOME SPICES SOLD WITHOUT PACKAGING IN VAN

The content of Fe, Cu, and Zn present in black pepper, cumin and red pepper available at herb stores and local markets in Van were determined using ICP-MS. The Fe content was 557.5 mg/kg, 467 mg/kg, 122.5 mg/kg, the Cu content was 19.4 mg/kg, 12.3 mg/kg, 11.9 mg/kg, and the Zn content was 17.6 mg/kg...

Zusammenfassung:The content of Fe, Cu, and Zn present in black pepper, cumin and red pepper available at herb stores and local markets in Van were determined using ICP-MS. The Fe content was 557.5 mg/kg, 467 mg/kg, 122.5 mg/kg, the Cu content was 19.4 mg/kg, 12.3 mg/kg, 11.9 mg/kg, and the Zn content was 17.6 mg/kg, 36.5 mg/kg, 11.9 mg/kg in black pepper, cumin, and red pepper, respectively. The highest Fe, Cu and Zn content were found in black pepper and the lowest Fe, Cu and Zn content in red pepper. The results showed that the Cu and Zn content determined in black pepper, cumin, and red pepper was below the WHO standards and the Fe content determined in black pepper and cumin was found to exceed the WHO standards. Therefore, continuous heavy metal analysis in terms of Fe, especially in black pepper and cumin, is essential for human health. Van ilinde baharatçı ve yerel marketlerden temin edilen karabiber, kimyon ve kırmızıbiberdeki Fe, Cu ve Zn düzeyleri ICP-MS cihazında tespit edildi. Karabiber, kimyon ve kırmızıbiberde Fe düzeyi sırasıyla 557.5 mg/kg, 467 mg/kg, 122.5 mg/kg, Cu düzeyi sırasıyla 19.4 mg/kg, 12.3mg/kg,11.9 mg/kg, Zn düzeyi sırasıyla 17.6 mg/kg, 36.5mg/kg, 11.9 mg/kg’dı. Analiz sonucunda en yüksek Fe, Cu ve Zn düzeyinin karabiberde, en düşük Fe, Cu ve Zn düzeyinin ise kırmızıbiberde olduğu belirlendi. Karabiber, kimyon ve kırmızıbiberde tespit edilen Cu ve Zn düzeyleri WHO’nun bildirdiği limitlerin altında, karabiber ve kimyonda tespit edilen Fe düzeyi ise WHO’nun bildirdiği limitlerin üstündeydi. Bu nedenle, özellikle karabiber ve kimyonda Fe yönünden ağır metal analizlerinin devamlı yapılması insan sağlığı açısından gereklidir.
