“…Zn solubility percentages obtained (< 37.8% for commercial infant cereals; < 46.9% for dephytinized infant cereals) were lower than values obtained by Cámara et al [27] in school meals, and by Lyon [37] in cereal products. The same trend was observed in a previous analysis in our laboratory studying infant cereals [38] , since a lack of phytase effect on zinc solubility was found for most of the samples studied; moreover, Kayode et al [39] observed similar results studying opaque sorghum beer.…”

“…It has been reported that removing phytate increases iron bioavailability in the Caco-2 cell in vitro model [24,25] . Since iron solubility, iron retention, transport efficiency, and uptake efficiency percentages can be used as bioavailability predictors [8,26,27] , our results showed that three of the four infant cereals analyzed after phytase treatment increased iron bioavailability. The source of iron used for the enrichment of infant cereals (elemental iron) plays an important role in iron solubility [28] ; in this regard, values found in our study were lower than those reported by other authors [29,30] for the same element, probably due to the phytate content or fiber components from cereals, the different pH conditions applied for the assays [29] , or the previously reported the inhibitory effect of calcium on iron availability [10] since infant cereals used in this study were calcium-enriched.…”

AIM:To test the effect of the dephytinization of three different commercial infant cereals on iron, calcium, and zinc bioavailability by estimating the uptake, retention, and transport by Caco-2 cells. METHODS:Both dephytinized (by adding an exogenous phytase) and non-dephytinized infant cereals were digested using an in vitro digestion protocol adapted to the gastrointestinal conditions of infants younger than 6 mo. Mineral cell retention, transport, and uptake from infant cereals were measured using the soluble fraction of the simulated digestion and the Caco-2 cells. RESULTS:Dephytinization of infant cereals significantly increased (P < 0.05) the cell uptake efficiency (from 0.66%-6.05% to 3.93%-13%), retention (from 6.04%-16.68% to 14.75%-20.14%) and transport efficiency (from 0.14%-2.21% to 1.47%-6.02%), of iron, and the uptake efficiency (from 5.0%-35.4% to 7.3%-41.6%) and retention (from 4.05%-20.53% to 14.45%-61.3%) of zinc, whereas calcium only cell uptake showed a significant increase (P < 0.05) after removing phytate from most of the samples analyzed. A positive relationship (P < 0.05) between mineral solubility and the cell uptake and transport efficiencies was observed. CONCLUSION:Removing phytate from infant cereals had a beneficial effect on iron and zinc bioavailability when infant cereals were reconstituted with water. Since in developing countries cereal-based complementary foods for infants are usually consumed mixed with water, exogenous phytase additions could improve the nutritional value of this weaning food.

Adequate Fe in the diet is very important for avoiding some major health problems (Belitz and Grosch, 2001;Camara et al, 2005).

“…Adequate iron in the diet is very important for decreasing the incidence of anaemia, which is considered a major health problem, especially in young children. Iron deficiency occurs when the demand for iron is high, e.g., in growth, high menstrual loss, and pregnancy, and the intake is quantitatively inadequate or contains elements that render the iron unavailable for absorption (Blitz and Grosch, 2001;Camara et al, 2005). Transition metal ions, particularly Cu and Fe, have been known as the major catalysts for oxidation (Thanonkaew et al, 2006).…”

ABSTRACT. Crab meat is an excellent source of minerals, particularly calcium, iron, zinc, potassium and phosphours. The minerals in the edible parts of muscle of C.lucifera different sexes (male, female and berried female) were determined by digital flame photometer. Totally 11 minerals are reported in the present study. Seven (Sodium> Potassium >Magnesium >Calcium>Manganese> Iron >Zinc) minerals were reported in all sexes. Sodium was maximum (137.55 mg) and zinc was minimum (1.76 mg) in all sexes. Copper, mercury and cadmium were available in trace amount in all sexes. However, arsenic was in trace amount in berried females and totally absent in males and females. Among different sexes, berried females contain maximum amount of minerals (156.24mg) followed by females (121.76 mg) and males (95.5mg).

Background and objectives: Fe, Zn, Cu, and Mn contents as well as bioaccessible fractions of eight rice varieties were analyzed in order to evaluate them nutritionally. Findings: Total trace element concentrations ranged between 5.90 and 15.3 mg/ kg for Fe, 8.82-12.9 mg/kg for Zn, 1.45-5.59 mg/kg for Cu, and 2.45-13.6 mg/ kg for Mn. Brown rice presented the highest trace element contents and at the same time the lowest bioaccessibility. A negative significant statistical correlation was found between dietary fiber and Mn bioaccessibility (r = −0.872; p < 0.01).Significant statistical negative correlations were found between vegetable proteins of rice and trace elements bioaccessibility. Conclusions: A probabilistic assessment (@Risk) used to determine the contribution of DRI for Fe, Zn, Mn, and Cu through the intake of 150-200 g of boiled rice showed that this food can be a proper source of Cu and to a lesser extent Mn but not in the case of Fe and Zn. Significance and novelty: The present study develops a probabilistic model to evaluate the contributions to the DRIs of these micronutrients, from data of rice varieties consumption and their bioaccessibility-total content.
