Содержание микро- и макроэлеметов в различных сортах меда Республики Молдова

Abstract

This article presents the results of determining the content of micro- and macroelements in various varieties of honey from the Republic of Moldova. The contents of micro- and macroelements in honey were determined by atomic absorption spectrometry at the Institute of Chemistry, GUM. It was revealed that of all the studied varieties, the largest amount of microelements is contained in acacia honey: manganese - 3.661 mg/kg, zinc - 1.896 mg/kg, copper - 1.413 mg/kg, iron - 5.487 mg/kg, chromium - <1.5 and nickel – <2.5 mg/kg, total – 16.46 mg/kg, the least in sunflower honey – 9.12 mg/kg. It has been established that the total amount of studied macroelements in different types of honey varies, on average from 483.81 mg/kg (acacia honey) to 1359.58 mg/kg (linden honey), including: calcium - 10.7-82.42 mg/kg, magnesium – 10.45-37.043 mg/kg, potassium – 257.40-1168.967 mg/kg, sodium – 14.80-23.383 mg/kg and phosphates – 148.85-228.68 mg/ kg.
