Elements in rice on the Swedish market: Part 2. Chromium, copper, iron, manganese, platinum, rubidium, selenium and zinc

Abstract: A survey of the levels of some essential and non-essential trace elements in different types of rice available on the Swedish retail market was carried out in 2001-03. The types of rice included long and short grain, brown, white, and parboiled white. The mean levels found were: chromium (Cr) = 0.008 mg kg(-1), copper (Cu) = 1.9 mg kg(-1), iron (Fe) = 4.7 mg kg(-1), manganese (Mn) = 16 mg kg(-1), platinum (Pt) < 0.0003 mg kg(-1), rubidium (Rb) = 3.3 mg kg(-1), selenium (Se) =0.1 mg kg(-1); and zinc (Zn) = 15 m… Show more

“…Since Zn also has nutritional value, its presence in certain products may be considered beneficial in some circumstances. Overall, the concentrations of Cu, Mn, Fe, and Zn found from the rice in this study were consistent with a recent ICP-MS analysis of rice sold in Sweden (Jorhem et al, 2008b). It should be noted that the degree of correlation between XRF amplitude and ICP-MS concentration observed in this study is affected somewhat by the fact that the two measurements are assessing slightly different material volumes each time a sample comparison is made.…”

“…The Cr levels in 49 rice samples sold on the Swedish market ranged between <0.003 and 0.033 mg/kg (average 0.008 mg/kg) with no significant difference between brown and white rice (Jorhem et al, 2008).…”

“…1.3% Cu, 1.6% Mn, 0.8% Fe, and 2.3% Zn (Table 5 ). In the diets of Swedish people, the share of rice in covering the Recommended Dietary Intake (RDI) of microelements is 4.1% Cu, 0.6% Fe, 2.4% Mn, and 3.2% Zn (given the average intake of 11 g per day) [ 64 ]. In populations where rice is the basic food, the share of this cereal grain in covering the requirement of minerals is higher.…”
