Abstract
AbstractThe paper reports application of X‐ray fluorescence (XRF) procedure to determine the contents of 17 elements (Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Rb, Sr, and Zr) in a dry residue of cow milk. The main advantages of this procedure imply: preparation of samples without having them destructed, use of plant reference samples (RS) to calibrate, no need for milk defatting, and, as a consequence, no limitations for the milk fatness. The tendencies identified with the XRF results on the dry residue of cow milk do not contradict the features recognized in environmental biogeochemistry. They designate a satisfactory quality of XRF results and prove them promising for multipurpose interpretations. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
