Abstract
Tricalcium phosphate Anhydrous Powder typically contains less than 10 ppm (mg/Kg) (w/w) manganese. This level can be determined utilizing Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometer (AAS) and standard based on known standards. A number of analytical methods are presently used for the analysis of metals in the biochemical. The instrumental techniques available are Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP/MS), X-Ray Fluorescence, UV-VIS Spectrophotometry, and Atomic Absorption Spectrometry. Flame AA has gained widespread acceptance as an analytical technique and is used for many applications. In this study, we have determined the amount of manganese metal present in Tricalcium Phosphate (TCP) using Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer. The method has high precision and accuracy. The percent recovery was found to be 99.8% for spiked sample. The results meet the requirement.

Summary
Manganese (Mn) is associated with iron in many minerals. It is a common ingredient of alloy as well as iron and steel. It is present in small amounts in many biological samples [1]. Studies in animals have shown that very high levels of manganese in food or water can cause changes in the brain [2]. The most common method of background correction in atomic absorption (AA) spectrophotometry uses a continuum source such as a deuterium lamp to measure the background. Before operation the calibration of the instrument is necessary.
