Crassostrea Rhizophorae

Os micronutrientes, micro ou oligoelementos, incluem vitaminas e alguns metais, sendo que uma parcela significativa da população mundial apresenta deficiência nutricional desses elementos. Este estudo avaliou os teores de micronutrientes metálicos em Crassostrea rhizophorae (ostra) e Mytella guyanensis (sururu) coletados no sul da Bahia, Brasil, num trecho de 280 km de extensão. Os teores dos metais (Cu, Fe, Mn e Zn) da parte edível das espécies foram avaliados em espectrometria de emissão óptica de plasma indutivamente acoplado (ICP OES). As concentrações médias encontradas para C. rhizophorae e M. guyanensis, respectivamente, foram: Cu (2,09 ± 0,90 e 2,31 ± 0,63); Fe (32,03 ± 4,18 e 213,36 ± 51,67); Mn (1,75 ± 0,44 e 13,61 ± 2,83) e Zn (129,54 ± 25,88 e 12,13 ± 1,13), em mg kg-1. Ambos os bivalves foram relevantes na concentração dos micronutrientes investigados, com destaque para os valores elevados de Zn em C. rhizophorae e de Fe em M. guyanensis. Palavras-chave: Cobre, elementos essenciais, ferro, manganês, zinco.

The physicochemical properties of six imported and one locally produced edible vegetable oils (soybean oil, sunflower oil, sunlit oil, hayat oil, avena oil, USA vegetable oil and Niger oil) purchased from Bahir Dar city, Ethiopia, were examined for their compositional quality. All the oil samples were characterized for specific gravity, moisture content, color, relative viscosity, refractive indices, ash content, peroxide value, saponification value, smoke point, acid value, free fatty acid value and trace metals contents using established methods. The result clearly indicates that some of the oil samples exhibited unacceptable value when compared with physicochemical parameters recommended by the Codex Alimentations Commission of FAO/WHO and the specification of Ethiopian standards. The contents of nickel (Ni), copper (Cu) and iron (Fe) in seven samples were determined using ICP-OES and their concentrations were found in the range of 1.8-20.4, 45.8-82.2 and 136.04-445.0 mg/kg, respectively.
