Application of Mixture Design Using Diluted Acid for Extraction of Inorganic Components in Fruits of Casearia fasciculata and Determination by ICP OES: Evaluation by PCA and HCA
Abstract:This study is the first to propose the simultaneous quantification of 10 elements in fruits of Casearia fasciculata by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP OES). A method of digestion using dilute nitric acid was optimized by mixture design for extraction of elements in the seed, peel, and pulp of Casearia fasciculata cultivated in the Bahia State, Northeastern Brazil. Four different approaches were used to evaluate the digestion procedure ((i) desirability; (ii) multiple response; (ii… Show more
