Erzurum ve Çevresinde Üretilen Süt ve Süt Ürünlerinin Mevsimlere Göre Mineral Madde ve Ağır Metal İçeriği.

In this study, the mineral content and heavy metal pollution levels of cow's milk and dairy products produced in Erzurum province and some districts were determined and how much these levels are affected from soil and plant structure are introduced. Ca, Na, K, Mg, Cu, Fe, Zn, Pb, Ni and Mn concentrations of samples taken from 335 cow milks, 82 milk products, 26 soils and 26 pasture-meadow plants are determined by using Inductive Couple Plasma Optic Emission Spectroscopy (ICPOES). In the examined cow milk samples, 1258.48±350.76 mg/kg of Ca, 415.51±167.17 mg/kg of Na, 1768.58±461.64 mg/kg of K, 107.33±31.19 mg/kg of Mg, 0.079±0.103 mg/kg of Cu, 0.64±3.45 mg/kg of Fe, 1.406±0.751 mg/kg of Zn, 0.031±0.048 mg/kg of Pb, 0.034±0.273 mg/kg of Ni and 0.022±0.11 mg/kg of Mn were determined. When compared with national and international values, it was found that there is no advanced pollution in heavy milk produced in Erzurum and its region. It was determined that there is no heavy pollution with any heavy metal in the soil of the region. It was determined that the milk samples showed different concentrations of Ca, Na, K, Cu and Pb (P<0.01) in the statistical evaluation according to periods (summer and winter). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
