  • Title: Characterization of elemental composition in kiwifruit grown in northern Iran.
    Author: Samadi-Maybodi A, Shariat MR.
    Journal: J Agric Food Chem; 2003 May 07; 51(10):3108-10. PubMed ID: 12720400.
    Abstract:
    Kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis) has different varieties such as Hayward, Bruno, Monty, and Abbott. These varieties are different in taste, odor, shape, and some chemical compositions. This work reports the elemental analysis of Cu, Fe, Mn, Zn, Ca, Mg, K, and Na in the different varieties of Hayward, Bruno, Monty, and Abbott grown in northern Iran. Results from elemental analysis were determined using atomic absorption and emission spectroscopy. Distributions and amounts of metals for different varieties of kiwifruit have been investigated. Results have shown that the presence of elements varied with different varieties of kiwifruit. The soils in which the kiwifruits have been cultivated also have been analyzed.
